7:1

After this, Jesus went around in Galilee, purposely staying away from Judea because the Jews there were waiting to take his life.

7:2

But when the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near,

7:3

Jesus' brothers said to him, "You ought to leave here and go to Judea , so that your disciples may see the miracles you do.

7:4

No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world."

7:5

For even his own brothers did not believe in him.

7:6

Therefore Jesus told them, "The right time for me has not yet come; for you any time is right.

7:7

The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that what it does is evil.

7:8

You go to the Feast. I am not yet^[a] going up to this Feast, because for me the right time has not yet come."

7:9

Having said this, he stayed in Galilee .

7:10

However, after his brothers had left for the Feast, he went also, not publicly, but in secret.

16:

1-3

"All this I have told you so that you will not go astray. They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God. They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.

3:19

This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.

3:20

Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.

2:15

so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe

4:5-6

Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. "If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw yourself down. For it is written: " 'He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"

12:13

They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, "Hosanna!" "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" "Blessed is the King of Israel!"

12:14

Jesus found a young donkey and sat upon it, as it is written,

12:15

"Do not be afraid, O Daughter of Zion ; see, your king is coming, seated on a donkey's colt."

12:32

But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself."

10:42

Jesus called them together and said, "You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.

10:43

Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

10:44

and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all

10:45

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

15:18

"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.

15:19

If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

5:11

"Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.

6:12

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

3:8

He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work.

4:4

You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.

5:44

But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

10:23

When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another.

10:32

"Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven.

10:33

But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.
