New Living Translation (NLT)
John 12
44 Jesus shouted to the crowds, “If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but also God who sent me.
45 For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me.
46 I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark.
47 I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it.
48 But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken.
49 I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it.
50 And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.”
John 13
1 Before the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that his hour had come to leave this world and return to his Father. He had loved his disciples during his ministry on earth, and now he loved them to the very end.
2 It was time for supper, and the devil had already prompted Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.
3 Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God.
4 So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist,
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
