Scriptures for Volume Ten
By Faith Alone
John.4.43
Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
John.4.44
For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his
own country.
John.4.45
Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him,
having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast:
for they also went unto the feast.
John.4.46
So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water
wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at
Capernaum.
John.4.47
When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he
went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal
his son: for he was at the point of death.
John.4.48
Then said Jesus unto him, Except
ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
John.4.49
The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
John.4.50
Jesus saith unto him, Go
thy way; thy son liveth. And the man
believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his
way.
John.4.51
And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him,
saying, Thy son liveth.
John.4.52
Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And
they said unto him, Yesterday
at the seventh hour the fever left him.
John.4.53
So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which
Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and
his whole house.
John.4.54
This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come
out of Judaea into Galilee.
John.5.1
After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to
Jerusalem.
John.5.2
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is
called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
John.5.3
In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt,
withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
John.5.4
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and
troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of
the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.
John.5.5
And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and
eight years.
John.5.6
When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time
in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?
John.5.7
The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put
me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down
before me.
John.5.8
Jesus saith unto him, Rise,
take up thy bed, and walk.
John.5.9
And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and
walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
John.5.10
The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful
for thee to carry thy bed.
John.5.11
He answered them, He that
made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
John.5.12
Then asked they him, What
man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
John.5.13
And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had
conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.
John.5.14
Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no
more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.
John.5.15
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had
made him whole.
John.5.16
And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay
him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.
John.5.17
But Jesus answered them, My
Father worketh hitherto, and I work.
John.5.18
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not
only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his
Father, making himself equal with God.
John.5.19
Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son
can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for
what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
John.5.20
For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things that
himself doeth: and he will show him greater works than these,
that ye may marvel.
John.5.21
For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even
so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
John.5.22
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment
unto the Son:
John.5.23
That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the
Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father
which hath sent him.
John.5.24
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and
believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall
not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
John.5.25
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is,
when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they
that hear shall live.
John.5.26
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the
Son to have life in himself;
John.5.27
And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he
is the Son of man.
John.5.28
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that
are in the graves shall hear his voice,
John.5.29
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the
resurrection of damnation.
John.5.30
I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my
judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will
of the Father which hath sent me.
John.5.31
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
John.5.32
There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the
witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
John.5.33
Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
John.5.34
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say,
that ye might be saved.
John.5.35
He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a
season to rejoice in his light.
John.5.36
But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which
the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do,
bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
John.5.37
And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of
me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his
shape.
John.5.38
And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent,
him ye believe not.
John.5.39
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life:
and they are they which testify of me.
John.5.40
And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
John.5.41
I receive not honour from men.
John.5.42
But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
John.5.43
I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another
shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
John.5.44
How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek
not the honour that cometh from God only?
John.5.45
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one
that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
John.5.46
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he
wrote of me.
John.5.47
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my
words?
