6 Christ the Source of Salvation
[To the Samaritan woman:] If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that
saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would
have given thee living water.
[Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then
hast thou that living water? Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which
gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?]
Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again: but whosoever
drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water
that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto
eternal life.
j0410-5
[To the Jews:] .... and ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.
j0540
[Walking on the water:] Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
m1427/k0650/j0620
Work not for the meat which perisheth, but for the meat which abideth unto
eternal life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him the Father,
even God, hath sealed.
j0627
I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, that ye have seen me, and yet believe not. All that which the Father giveth me shall come unto me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. For I am come down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. And this is the will of him that sent me, that of all that which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. For this is the will of my Father, that every one that beholdeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. j0635-40
For this cause have I said unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it
be given unto him of the Father.
j0665
No man can come to me, except the Father which sent me draw him: and I will
raise him up in the last day. It is written in the prophets, And they shall
all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard from the Father, and hath
learned, cometh unto me. Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which
is from God, he hath seen the Father. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that
believeth hath eternal life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers did eat the
manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which cometh down
out of heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. I am the living bread
which came down out of heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for
ever: yea and the bread which I will give is my flesh, for the life of the
world.
j0644-51
Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man and
drink his blood, ye have not life in yourselves. He that eateth my flesh and
drinketh my blood hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my
flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me, and I in him. As the living Father
sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he that eateth me, he also shall
live because of me. This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as
the fathers did eat, and died: he that eateth this bread shall live for ever.
j0653-8
If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me,
as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living
water.
j0737-8
I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the
darkness, but shall have the light of life.
j0812
If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
j0836
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in
and go out, and shall find pasture. The thief cometh not, but that he may
steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have it
abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for
the sheep. He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are
not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the
wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth them: he fleeth because he is a hireling,
and careth not for the sheep. I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and
mine own know me, even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I
lay down my life for the sheep. And other sheep I have, which are not of this
fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and they shall
become one flock, one shepherd.
