I am the Good Shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine. Jesus answered and said unto her, 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. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins.
Because HE hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised Him from the dead. That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
He that hath the Son hath Life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not Life. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men. For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them.
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints.
That I may know HIM, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death. Hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him. Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers. Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto HIM against that day. Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. From a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard HIM ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
But I know Him: for I am from Him, and he hath sent me. Then said they unto Him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also. And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
