“And the Father leaves all judgment of sin to his Son, so that everyone will honor the Son, just as
they honor the Father. But if you refuse to honor God’s Son, whom he sent to
you, then you are certainly not honoring the Father. “I Say
Emphatically That Anyone Who Listens To My Message And Believes In God Who Sent
Me Has Eternal Life, and will never be damned for his sins, but has already
passed out of death into life.”
To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From: GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD
JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be
with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD; John 1:1 (NKJV) 1 In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God, and the
Word was God. John
1:14 (NKJV) 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us,
and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
John 5:1–47 (The Living Bible) 1
Afterwards Jesus returned to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish religious
holidays. 2 Inside the city, near the Sheep Gate, was Bethesda Pool,
with five covered platforms or porches surrounding it. 3 Crowds of
sick folks—lame, blind, or with paralyzed limbs—lay on the platforms (waiting
for a certain movement of the water, 4 for an angel of the Lord came
from time to time and disturbed the water, and the first person to step down
into it afterwards was healed). 5 One of the men lying there had
been sick for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him and knew how
long he had been ill, he asked him, “Would you like to get well?” 7
“I can’t,” the sick man said, “for I have no one to help me into the pool at
the movement of the water. While I am trying to get there, someone else always
gets in ahead of me.” 8 Jesus told him, “Stand up, roll up your
sleeping mat and go on home!” 9 Instantly, the man was healed! He
rolled up the mat and began walking! But it was on the Sabbath when this
miracle was done. 10 So the Jewish leaders objected. They said to
the man who was cured, “You can’t work on the Sabbath! It’s illegal to carry
that sleeping mat!” 11 “The man who healed me told me to,” was his
reply. 12 “Who said such a thing as that?” they demanded. 13
The man didn’t know, and Jesus had disappeared into the crowd. 14
But afterwards Jesus found him in the Temple and told him, “Now you are well;
don’t sin as you did before, or something even worse may happen to you.” 15
Then the man went to find the Jewish leaders and told them it was Jesus who had
healed him. 16 So they began harassing Jesus as a Sabbath breaker. 17
But Jesus replied, “My Father constantly
does good, and I’m following his example.” 18 Then the Jewish
leaders were all the more eager to kill him because in addition to disobeying
their Sabbath laws, he had spoken of God as his Father, thereby making himself
equal with God. 19 Jesus replied, “The Son can do nothing by
himself. He does only what he sees the Father doing, and in the same way. 20
For the Father loves the Son, and tells him everything he is doing; and the Son
will do far more awesome miracles than this man’s healing. 21 He
will even raise from the dead anyone he wants to, just as the Father does. 22
And the Father leaves all judgment of sin to his Son, 23 so that
everyone will honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. But if you refuse
to honor God’s Son, whom he sent to you, then you are certainly not honoring
the Father. 24 “I say
emphatically that anyone who listens to my message and believes in God who sent
me has eternal life, and will never be damned for his sins, but has already
passed out of death into life. 25 “And I solemnly declare that
the time is coming, in fact, it is here, when the dead shall hear my voice—the
voice of the Son of God—and those who listen shall live. 26 The
Father has life in himself, and has granted his Son to have life in himself, 27
and to judge the sins of all mankind because he is the Son of Man. 28
Don’t be so surprised! Indeed the time is coming when all the dead in their
graves shall hear the voice of God’s Son, 29 and shall rise
again—those who have done good, to eternal life; and those who have continued
in evil, to judgment. 30 “But I pass no judgment without consulting
the Father. I judge as I am told. And my judgment is absolutely fair and just,
for it is according to the will of God who sent me and is not merely my own. 31
“When I make claims about myself they aren’t believed, 32 but
someone else, yes, John the Baptist, is making these claims for me too. You
have gone out to listen to his preaching, and I can assure you that all he says
about me is true! 34 But the truest witness I have is not from a
man, though I have reminded you about John’s witness so that you will believe
in me and be saved. 35 John shone brightly for a while, and you
benefited and rejoiced, 36
but I have a greater witness than John. I refer to the miracles I do; these
have been assigned me by the Father, and they prove that the Father has sent
me. 37 And the Father himself has also testified about me, though
not appearing to you personally, or speaking to you directly. 38
But you are not listening to him, for you refuse to believe me—the one sent to
you with God’s message. 39
“You search the Scriptures, for you believe they give you eternal life. And the
Scriptures point to me! 40 Yet you won’t come to me so that I can
give you this life eternal! 41 “Your approval or disapproval
means nothing to me, for as I know so well, you don’t have God’s love within
you. 43 I know, because I have come to you representing my Father
and you refuse to welcome me, though you readily enough receive those who
aren’t sent from him, but represent only themselves! 44 No wonder
you can’t believe! For you gladly honor each other, but you don’t care about
the honor that comes from the only God! 45 “Yet it is not I who will
accuse you of this to the Father—Moses will! Moses, on whose laws you set your
hopes of heaven. 46 For you have refused to believe Moses. He wrote
about me, but you refuse to believe him, so you refuse to believe in me. 47
And since you don’t believe what he wrote, no wonder you don’t believe me
either.”

2 Peter 1:16–21
(Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
Philippians 2:9–11 (The Living
Bible) 9 Yet it was because of this that God raised him up to the heights
of heaven and gave him a name which is above every other name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee shall
bow in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue
shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
