She replied, “Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God who comes into the world.”

Jesus replied, “Do not touch me, for I have not yet ascended to my Father. Go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.

But the one who practices the truth comes to the light, so that it may be plainly evident that his deeds have been done in God.

On the next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Jesus replied, “I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born from above, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Jesus answered, “I tell you the solemn truth, unless a person is born of water and spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

How can you believe, if you accept praise from one another and don’t seek the praise that comes from the only God?

It is written in the prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to me.

But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth I heard from God. Abraham did not do this!

The Jewish leaders replied, “We are not going to stone you for a good deed but for blasphemy, because you, a man, are claiming to be God.”

Now we know that you know everything and do not need anyone to ask you anything. Because of this we believe that you have come from God.”

The Jewish leaders replied, “We have a law, and according to our law he ought to die, because he claimed to be the Son of God!”

(Now Jesus said this to indicate clearly by what kind of death Peter was going to glorify God.) After he said this, Jesus told Peter, “Follow me.”

He continued, “I tell all of you the solemn truth – you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but he was born blind so that the acts of God may be revealed through what happens to him.

They will put you out of the synagogue, yet a time is coming when the one who kills you will think he is offering service to God.

Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory is worthless. The one who glorifies me is my Father, about whom you people say, ‘He is our God.’

For this is the way God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
