neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

of the Jews.

by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone,
and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw
no one but the woman, He said to her, "Woman, where are those accusers of
yours? Has no one condemned you?"

do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.

27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

anyone snatch them out of My hand.

able to snatch them out of My Father's hand.

for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God."
