I, Paul, send this greeting with my own hand.

So Jesus replied, “My teaching is not from me, but from the one who sent me.

This is my defense to those who examine me.

See what big letters I make as I write to you with my own hand!

“Just as the Father has loved me, I have also loved you; remain in my love.

I have told you these things so that my joy may be in you, and your joy may be complete.

My commandment is this – to love one another just as I have loved you.

I, Paul, write this greeting by my own hand. Remember my chains. Grace be with you.

I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand, which is how I write in every letter.

Jesus replied, “My kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world, my servants would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jewish authorities. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here.”

But if I judge, my evaluation is accurate, because I am not alone when I judge, but I and the Father who sent me do so together.

I, Paul, have written this letter with my own hand: I will repay it. I could also mention that you owe me your very self.

The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands by and listens for him, rejoices greatly when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. This then is my joy, and it is complete.

I can do nothing on my own initiative. Just as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the one who sent me.

And I wrote this very thing to you, so that when I came I would not have sadness from those who ought to make me rejoice, since I am confident in you all that my joy would be yours.
