  John chapter 8 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives early in the
• 0:04
  morning. He came again into the temple,
• 0:06
  and all the people were coming to Him, and He sat down and
• 0:08
  began to teach them. The scribes and the Pharisees
• 0:11
  brought a woman caught in adultery, and having set her in
• 0:14
  the center of the court, they said to him, Teacher, this woman
• 0:16
  has been caught in adultery. In the very act now in the law,
• 0:21
  Moses commanded us to stone such women.
• 0:23
  What then do you say? They were saying this testing
• 0:26
  Him so that they might have grounds for accusing Him.
• 0:29
  But Jesus stooped down and with his finger wrote on the ground.
• 0:32
  But when they persisted in asking him, he straightened up
• 0:35
  and said to them, He who is without sin among you, let him
• 0:38
  be the first to throw a stone at her.
• 0:41
  Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
• 0:44
  When they heard it, they began to go out one by one, beginning
• 0:47
  with the older ones, and he was left alone.
• 0:50
  And the woman where she was in the center of the court,
• 0:53
  straightening up, Jesus said to her, Woman, where are they?
• 0:57
  Did no one condemn you? She said no one Lord.
• 1:01
  And Jesus said, I do not condemn you either.
• 1:04
  From now on sin no more than Jesus again spoke to them,
• 1:08
  saying, I am the light of the world.
• 1:10
  He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have
• 1:13
  the light of life. So the Pharisees said to him,
• 1:16
  You are testifying about yourself.
• 1:18
  Your testimony is not true. Jesus answered and said to them,
• 1:22
  Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know
• 1:27
  where I came from and where I am going.
• 1:29
  But you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
• 1:33
  You judge according to the flesh.
• 1:35
  I am not judging anyone. But even if I do judge, my
• 1:39
  judgement is true, for I am not alone in it, but I and the
• 1:43
  Father who sent me. Even in your law it has been
• 1:46
  written that the testimony of two men is true.
• 1:49
  I am he who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent
• 1:52
  me testifies about me. So they were saying to him,
• 1:55
  Where is your Father? Jesus answered, You know neither
• 1:58
  me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know
• 2:01
  my Father also. These words he spoke in the
• 2:04
  treasury as he taught in the temple, and no one seized him,
• 2:07
  because his hour had not yet come.
• 2:10
  Then he said again to them, I go away, and you will seek me, and
• 2:13
  will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot
• 2:16
  come. So the Jews were saying, Surely
• 2:18
  he will not kill himself, will he?
• 2:20
  Since he says, Where I am going, you cannot come.
• 2:23
  And he was saying to them, You are from below, I am from above,
• 2:26
  you are of this world. I am not of this world.
• 2:29
  Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins.
• 2:32
  For unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.
• 2:36
  So they were saying to him, Who are you?
• 2:39
  Jesus said to them, What have I been saying to you from the
• 2:41
  beginning? I have many things to speak and
• 2:44
  to judge concerning you, but he who sent me is true, and the
• 2:47
  things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world.
• 2:51
  They did not realize that He had been speaking to them about the
• 2:53
  Father. So Jesus said, when you lift up
• 2:56
  the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do
• 2:59
  nothing on my own initiative, but I speak these things as the
• 3:02
  Father taught me, and he who sent me is with me.
• 3:05
  He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are
• 3:08
  pleasing to Him. As He spoke these things, many
• 3:11
  came to believe in Him. So Jesus was saying to those
• 3:14
  Jews who had believed Him, if you continue in my word, then
• 3:17
  you are truly disciples of mine, and you will know the truth, and
• 3:20
  the truth will make you free. They answered him.
• 3:23
  We are Abraham's descendants and have never yet been enslaved to
• 3:26
  anyone. How is it that you say you will
• 3:28
  become free? Jesus answered them truly,
• 3:31
  truly. I say to you, everyone who
• 3:33
  commits sin is the slave of sin. The slave does not remain in the
• 3:37
  house forever. The sun does remain forever.
• 3:40
  So if the sun makes you free, you will be free indeed.
• 3:44
  I know that you are Abraham's descendants.
• 3:46
  Yet you seek to kill me, because My word has no place in you.
• 3:50
  I speak the things which I have seen with my father.
• 3:53
  Therefore you also do the things which you have heard from your
• 3:56
  father. They answered and said to him,
• 3:58
  Abraham is our father. Jesus said to them, If you are
• 4:01
  Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham.
• 4:04
  But as it is, you are seeking to kill me, a man who has told you
• 4:07
  the truth which I heard from God.
• 4:09
  This Abraham did not do. You are doing the deeds of your
• 4:12
  Father. They said to him, We were not
• 4:15
  born of fornication, we have one Father, God.
• 4:19
  Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, you would love me,
• 4:22
  for I proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not
• 4:25
  even come on my own initiative, but He sent me.
• 4:28
  Why do you not understand what I'm saying?
• 4:31
  It is because you cannot hear my word.
• 4:33
  You are of your Father, the devil, and you want to do the
• 4:36
  desires of your father. He was a murderer from the
• 4:38
  beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no
• 4:41
  truth in Him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he
• 4:44
  speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of
• 4:47
  lies. But because I speak the truth,
• 4:50
  you do not believe me. Which one of you convicts me of
• 4:53
  sin? If I speak truth, why do you not
• 4:56
  believe me? He who is of God hears the words
• 4:59
  of God. For this reason you do not hear
• 5:02
  them, because you are not of God.
• 5:05
  The Jews answered and said to him, Do we not say rightly that
• 5:08
  you are a Samaritan and have a demon?
• 5:11
  Jesus answered, I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father and
• 5:15
  you dishonor me, but I do not seek my own glory.
• 5:18
  There is one who seeks and judges truly, truly.
• 5:21
  I say to you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death.
• 5:25
  The Jews said to him, now we know that you have a demon.
• 5:28
  Abraham died and the prophets also, and you say, if anyone
• 5:32
  keeps my word, he will never taste death.
• 5:34
  Surely you're not greater than our father Abraham who died.
• 5:38
  The prophets died too. Whom do you make yourself out to
• 5:41
  be? Jesus answered.
• 5:43
  If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing.
• 5:46
  It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say He is our
• 5:50
  God, and you have not come to know him.
• 5:52
  But I know Him. And if I say that I do not know
• 5:55
  Him, I will be a liar like you. But I do know Him, and keep His
• 5:59
  word. Your father Abraham rejoiced to
• 6:02
  see my day, and he saw it and was glad.
• 6:05
  So the Jews said to him, You were not yet 50 years old, and
• 6:09
  have you seen Abraham? Jesus said to them, Truly,
• 6:12
  truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am.
• 6:16
  Therefore they picked up stones to throw at him, But Jesus hid
• 6:20
  himself and went out of the temple.
