God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.

"There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God's one and only Son.

And the judgment is based on this fact: God's light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil.

But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants."

"He has come from above and is greater than anyone else. We are of the earth, and we speak of earthly things, but he has come from heaven and is greater than anyone else.

He testifies about what he has seen and heard, but how few believe what he tells them!

And anyone who believes in God's Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn't obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God's angry judgment."

"But sir, you don't have a rope or a bucket," she said, "and this well is very deep. Where would you get this living water?

But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life."

But the time is coming—indeed it's here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way.

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?"

But Jesus replied, "I have a kind of food you know nothing about."

You know the saying, ‘Four months between planting and harvest.' But I say, wake up and look around. The fields are already ripe for harvest.

Then they said to the woman, "Now we believe, not just because of what you told us, but because we have heard him ourselves. Now we know that he is indeed the Savior of the world."

Instantly, the man was healed! He rolled up his sleeping mat and began walking! But this miracle happened on the Sabbath,

But he replied, "The man who healed me told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.'"

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."

But Jesus replied, "My Father is always working, and so am I."

"I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.

But someone else is also testifying about me, and I assure you that everything he says about me is true.
