Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:38 - “Look, Lord,” they replied, “we have two swords among us.” “That's enough,” he said.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:40 - There he told them, “Pray that you will not give in to temptation.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:46 - “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:48 - But Jesus said, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:51 - But Jesus said, “No more of this.” And he touched the man's ear and healed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:52 - Then Jesus spoke to the leading priests, the captains of the Temple guard, and the elders who had come for him. “Am I some dangerous revolutionary,” he asked, “that you come with swords and clubs to arrest me?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:56 - A servant girl noticed him in the firelight and began staring at him. Finally she said, “This man was one of Jesus' followers!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:60 - But Peter said, “Man, I don't know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:61 - At that moment the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Suddenly, the Lord's words flashed through Peter's mind: “Before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:67 - and they said, “Tell us, are you the Messiah?”
But he replied, “If I tell you, you won't believe me.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:4 - Pilate turned to the leading priests and to the crowd and said, “I find nothing wrong with this man!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:14 - and he announced his verdict. “You brought this man to me, accusing him of leading a revolt. I have examined him thoroughly on this point in your presence and find him innocent.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:22 - For the third time he demanded, “Why? What crime has he committed? I have found no reason to sentence him to death. So I will have him flogged, and then I will release him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:28 - But Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don't weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:43 - And Jesus replied, “I assure you, today you will be with me in paradise.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:46 - Then Jesus shouted, “Father, I entrust my spirit into your hands!”[fn] And with those words he breathed his last.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:17 - He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?”
They stopped short, sadness written across their faces.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:18 - Then one of them, Cleopas, replied, “You must be the only person in Jerusalem who hasn't heard about all the things that have happened there the last few days.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:19 - “What things?” Jesus asked.
“The things that happened to Jesus, the man from Nazareth,” they said. “He was a prophet who did powerful miracles, and he was a mighty teacher in the eyes of God and all the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:25 - Then Jesus said to them, “You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:38 - “Why are you frightened?” he asked. “Why are your hearts filled with doubt?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:41 - Still they stood there in disbelief, filled with joy and wonder. Then he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:44 - Then he said, “When I was with you before, I told you that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms must be fulfilled.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:46 - And he said, “Yes, it was written long ago that the Messiah would suffer and die and rise from the dead on the third day.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:23 - John replied in the words of the prophet Isaiah:
“I am a voice shouting in the wilderness,
‘Clear the way for the LORD's coming!'”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:33 - I didn't know he was the one, but when God sent me to baptize with water, he told me, ‘The one on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is the one who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.'
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:42 - Then Andrew brought Simon to meet Jesus. Looking intently at Simon, Jesus said, “Your name is Simon, son of John—but you will be called Cephas” (which means “Peter”[fn]).
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:46 - “Nazareth!” exclaimed Nathanael. “Can anything good come from Nazareth?”
“Come and see for yourself,” Philip replied.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:48 - “How do you know about me?” Nathanael asked.
Jesus replied, “I could see you under the fig tree before Philip found you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:50 - Jesus asked him, “Do you believe this just because I told you I had seen you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:16 - Then, going over to the people who sold doves, he told them, “Get these things out of here. Stop turning my Father's house into a marketplace!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:19 - “All right,” Jesus replied. “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:22 - After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered he had said this, and they believed both the Scriptures and what Jesus had said.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:2 - After dark one evening, he came to speak with Jesus. “Rabbi,” he said, “we all know that God has sent you to teach us. Your miraculous signs are evidence that God is with you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:3 - Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, unless you are born again,[fn] you cannot see the Kingdom of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:9 - “How are these things possible?” Nicodemus asked.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:10 - Jesus replied, “You are a respected Jewish teacher, and yet you don't understand these things?
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:27 - John replied, “No one can receive anything unless God gives it from heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:10 - Jesus replied, “If you only knew the gift God has for you and who you are speaking to, you would ask me, and I would give you living water.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:13 - Jesus replied, “Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:17 - “I don't have a husband,” the woman replied.
Jesus said, “You're right! You don't have a husband—
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:27 - Just then his disciples came back. They were shocked to find him talking to a woman, but none of them had the nerve to ask, “What do you want with her?” or “Why are you talking to her?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:32 - But Jesus replied, “I have a kind of food you know nothing about.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:48 - Jesus asked, “Will you never believe in me unless you see miraculous signs and wonders?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:50 - Then Jesus told him, “Go back home. Your son will live!” And the man believed what Jesus said and started home.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:53 - Then the father realized that that was the very time Jesus had told him, “Your son will live.” And he and his entire household believed in Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:11 - But he replied, “The man who healed me told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:14 - But afterward Jesus found him in the Temple and told him, “Now you are well; so stop sinning, or something even worse may happen to you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:10 - “Tell everyone to sit down,” Jesus said. So they all sat down on the grassy slopes. (The men alone numbered about 5,000.)
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:26 - Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, you want to be with me because I fed you, not because you understood the miraculous signs.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:29 - Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:32 - Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, Moses didn't give you bread from heaven. My Father did. And now he offers you the true bread from heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:35 - Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:41 - Then the people[fn] began to murmur in disagreement because he had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:43 - But Jesus replied, “Stop complaining about what I said.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:53 - So Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot have eternal life within you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:59 - He said these things while he was teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:61 - Jesus was aware that his disciples were complaining, so he said to them, “Does this offend you?
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:67 - Then Jesus turned to the Twelve and asked, “Are you also going to leave?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:16 - So Jesus told them, “My message is not my own; it comes from God who sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:21 - Jesus replied, “I did one miracle on the Sabbath, and you were amazed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:33 - But Jesus told them, “I will be with you only a little longer. Then I will return to the one who sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:36 - What does he mean when he says, ‘You will search for me but not find me,' and ‘You cannot go where I am going'?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:38 - Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.'”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:39 - (When he said “living water,” he was speaking of the Spirit, who would be given to everyone believing in him. But the Spirit had not yet been given,[fn] because Jesus had not yet entered into his glory.)
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:42 - For the Scriptures clearly state that the Messiah will be born of the royal line of David, in Bethlehem, the village where King David was born.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:7 - They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:10 - Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn't even one of them condemn you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:11 - “No, Lord,” she said.
And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:14 - Jesus told them, “These claims are valid even though I make them about myself. For I know where I came from and where I am going, but you don't know this about me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:21 - Later Jesus said to them again, “I am going away. You will search for me but will die in your sin. You cannot come where I am going.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:25 - “Who are you?” they demanded.
Jesus replied, “The one I have always claimed to be.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:28 - So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man on the cross, then you will understand that I AM he.[fn] I do nothing on my own but say only what the Father taught me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:42 - Jesus told them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, because I have come to you from God. I am not here on my own, but he sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:58 - Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I AM![fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:7 - He told him, “Go wash yourself in the pool of Siloam” (Siloam means “sent”). So the man went and washed and came back seeing!
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:15 - The Pharisees asked the man all about it. So he told them, “He put the mud over my eyes, and when I washed it away, I could see!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:17 - Then the Pharisees again questioned the man who had been blind and demanded, “What's your opinion about this man who healed you?”
The man replied, “I think he must be a prophet.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:30 - “Why, that's very strange!” the man replied. “He healed my eyes, and yet you don't know where he comes from?
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:35 - When Jesus heard what had happened, he found the man and asked, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:36 - The man answered, “Who is he, sir? I want to believe in him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:37 - “You have seen him,” Jesus said, “and he is speaking to you!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:39 - Then Jesus told him,[fn] “I entered this world to render judgment—to give sight to the blind and to show those who think they see[fn] that they are blind.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:41 - “If you were blind, you wouldn't be guilty,” Jesus replied. “But you remain guilty because you claim you can see.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:6 - Those who heard Jesus use this illustration didn't understand what he meant,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:7 - so he explained it to them: “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:35 - And you know that the Scriptures cannot be altered. So if those people who received God's message were called ‘gods,'
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:41 - And many followed him. “John didn't perform miraculous signs,” they remarked to one another, “but everything he said about this man has come true.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:4 - But when Jesus heard about it he said, “Lazarus's sickness will not end in death. No, it happened for the glory of God so that the Son of God will receive glory from this.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:11 - Then he said, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but now I will go and wake him up.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:14 - So he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:16 - Thomas, nicknamed the Twin,[fn] said to his fellow disciples, “Let's go, too—and die with Jesus.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:21 - Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:25 - Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life.[fn] Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:34 - “Where have you put him?” he asked them.
They told him, “Lord, come and see.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:41 - So they rolled the stone aside. Then Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, thank you for hearing me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:49 - Caiaphas, who was high priest at that time,[fn] said, “You don't know what you're talking about!
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:51 - He did not say this on his own; as high priest at that time he was led to prophesy that Jesus would die for the entire nation.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:6 - Not that he cared for the poor—he was a thief, and since he was in charge of the disciples' money, he often stole some for himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:7 - Jesus replied, “Leave her alone. She did this in preparation for my burial.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:30 - Then Jesus told them, “The voice was for your benefit, not mine.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:35 - Jesus replied, “My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can, so the darkness will not overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness cannot see where they are going.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:38 - This is exactly what Isaiah the prophet had predicted:
“LORD, who has believed our message?
To whom has the LORD revealed his powerful arm?”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:39 - But the people couldn't believe, for as Isaiah also said,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:41 - Isaiah was referring to Jesus when he said this, because he saw the future and spoke of the Messiah's glory.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:44 - Jesus shouted to the crowds, “If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but also God who sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:7 - Jesus replied, “You don't understand now what I am doing, but someday you will.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:11 - For Jesus knew who would betray him. That is what he meant when he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:12 - After washing their feet, he put on his robe again and sat down and asked, “Do you understand what I was doing?
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:21 - Now Jesus was deeply troubled,[fn] and he exclaimed, “I tell you the truth, one of you will betray me!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:28 - None of the others at the table knew what Jesus meant.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:23 - Jesus replied, “All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:19 - Jesus realized they wanted to ask him about it, so he said, “Are you asking yourselves what I meant? I said in a little while you won't see me, but a little while after that you will see me again.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 17:1 - After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son so he can give glory back to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:6 - As Jesus said “I AM he,” they all drew back and fell to the ground!
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:9 - He did this to fulfill his own statement: “I did not lose a single one of those you have given me.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:11 - But Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword back into its sheath. Shall I not drink from the cup of suffering the Father has given me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:16 - Peter had to stay outside the gate. Then the disciple who knew the high priest spoke to the woman watching at the gate, and she let Peter in.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:25 - Meanwhile, as Simon Peter was standing by the fire warming himself, they asked him again, “You're not one of his disciples, are you?”
He denied it, saying, “No, I am not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:31 - “Then take him away and judge him by your own law,” Pilate told them.
“Only the Romans are permitted to execute someone,” the Jewish leaders replied.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:32 - (This fulfilled Jesus' prediction about the way he would die.[fn])
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:33 - Then Pilate went back into his headquarters and called for Jesus to be brought to him. “Are you the king of the Jews?” he asked him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:37 - Pilate said, “So you are a king?”
Jesus responded, “You say I am a king. Actually, I was born and came into the world to testify to the truth. All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:21 - Then the leading priests objected and said to Pilate, “Change it from ‘The King of the Jews' to ‘He said, I am King of the Jews.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:30 - When Jesus had tasted it, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and released his spirit.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:18 - Mary Magdalene found the disciples and told them, “I have seen the Lord!” Then she gave them his message.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:21 - Again he said, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:25 - They told him, “We have seen the Lord!”
But he replied, “I won't believe it unless I see the nail wounds in his hands, put my fingers into them, and place my hand into the wound in his side.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:26 - Eight days later the disciples were together again, and this time Thomas was with them. The doors were locked; but suddenly, as before, Jesus was standing among them. “Peace be with you,” he said.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:28 - “My Lord and my God!” Thomas exclaimed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:6 - Then he said, “Throw out your net on the right-hand side of the boat, and you'll get some!” So they did, and they couldn't haul in the net because there were so many fish in it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:17 - A third time he asked him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
Peter was hurt that Jesus asked the question a third time. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you.”
Jesus said, “Then feed my sheep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:19 - Jesus said this to let him know by what kind of death he would glorify God. Then Jesus told him, “Follow me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:20 - Peter turned around and saw behind them the disciple Jesus loved—the one who had leaned over to Jesus during supper and asked, “Lord, who will betray you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:23 - So the rumor spread among the community of believers[fn] that this disciple wouldn't die. But that isn't what Jesus said at all. He only said, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 1:7 - He replied, “The Father alone has the authority to set those dates and times, and they are not for you to know.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 1:15 - During this time, when about 120 believers[fn] were together in one place, Peter stood up and addressed them.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:3 - Then Peter said, “Ananias, why have you let Satan fill your heart? You lied to the Holy Spirit, and you kept some of the money for yourself.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:8 - Peter asked her, “Was this the price you and your husband received for your land?”
“Yes,” she replied, “that was the price.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:19 - But an angel of the Lord came at night, opened the gates of the jail, and brought them out. Then he told them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:1 - Then the high priest asked Stephen, “Are these accusations true?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:3 - God told him, ‘Leave your native land and your relatives, and come into the land that I will show you.'[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:7 - ‘But I will punish the nation that enslaves them,' God said, ‘and in the end they will come out and worship me here in this place.'[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:33 - “Then the LORD said to him, ‘Take off your sandals, for you are standing on holy ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:56 - And he told them, “Look, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing in the place of honor at God's right hand!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:20 - But Peter replied, “May your money be destroyed with you for thinking God's gift can be bought!
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:24 - “Pray to the Lord for me,” Simon exclaimed, “that these terrible things you've said won't happen to me!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:29 - The Holy Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and walk along beside the carriage.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:30 - Philip ran over and heard the man reading from the prophet Isaiah. Philip asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:31 - The man replied, “How can I, unless someone instructs me?” And he urged Philip to come up into the carriage and sit with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:34 - The eunuch asked Philip, “Tell me, was the prophet talking about himself or someone else?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:5 - “Who are you, lord?” Saul asked.

“Yes, Lord!” he replied.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:15 - But the Lord said, “Go, for Saul is my chosen instrument to take my message to the Gentiles and to kings, as well as to the people of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:17 - So Ananias went and found Saul. He laid his hands on him and said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road, has sent me so that you might regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”

And the angel replied, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have been received by God as an offering!
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:14 - “No, Lord,” Peter declared. “I have never eaten anything that our Jewish laws have declared impure and unclean.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:19 - Meanwhile, as Peter was puzzling over the vision, the Holy Spirit said to him, “Three men have come looking for you.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:21 - So Peter went down and said, “I'm the man you are looking for. Why have you come?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:34 - Then Peter replied, “I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:12 - The Holy Spirit told me to go with them and not to worry that they were Gentiles. These six brothers here accompanied me, and we soon entered the home of the man who had sent for us.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:11 - Peter finally came to his senses. “It's really true!” he said. “The Lord has sent his angel and saved me from Herod and from what the Jewish leaders[fn] had planned to do to me!”

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:36 - After some time Paul said to Barnabas, “Let's go back and visit each city where we previously preached the word of the Lord, to see how the new believers are doing.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:18 - This went on day after day until Paul got so exasperated that he turned and said to the demon within her, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And instantly it left her.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:6 - But when they opposed and insulted him, Paul shook the dust from his clothes and said, “Your blood is upon your own heads—I am innocent. From now on I will go preach to the Gentiles.”
