'God' in the Bible

From the first he was the Word, and the Word was in relation with God and was God.

This Word was from the first in relation with God.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:

Whose birth was from God and not from blood, or from an impulse of the flesh and man's desire.

No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is.

The day after, John sees Jesus coming to him and says, See, here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

This I saw myself and my witness is that he is the Son of God.

And looking at Jesus while he was walking he said, See, there is the Lamb of God!

Nathanael said to him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God, you are King of Israel!

He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

Jesus said in answer, Truly, I say to you, If a man's birth is not from water and from the Spirit, it is not possible for him to go into the kingdom of God.

For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.

God did not send his Son into the world to be judge of the world; he sent him so that the world might have salvation through him.

The man who has faith in him does not come up to be judged; but he who has no faith in him has been judged even now, because he has no faith in the name of the only Son of God.

But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God.

He who so takes his witness has made clear his faith that God is true.

For he whom God has sent says God's words; and God does not give him the Spirit by measure.

In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.

God is Spirit: then let his worshippers give him worship in the true way of the spirit.

For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.

But I have knowledge of you that you have no love for God in your hearts.

How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?

Then Jesus took the cakes and having given praise to God, he gave them to the people who were seated, and the fishes in the same way, as much as they had need of.

Let your work not be for the food which comes to an end, but for the food which goes on for eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you, for on him has God the Father put his mark.

Then they said to him, How may we do the works of God?

Jesus, answering, said to them, This is to do the work of God: to have faith in him whom God has sent.

The bread of God is the bread which comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world.

The writings of the prophets say, And they will all have teaching from God. Everyone whose ears have been open to the teaching of the Father comes to me.

Not that anyone has ever seen the Father; only he who is from God, he has seen the Father.

And we have faith and are certain that you are the Holy One of God.

If any man is ready to do God's pleasure he will have knowledge of the teaching and of where it comes from--from God or from myself.

But now you have a desire to put me to death, a man who has said to you what is true, as I had it from God: Abraham did not do that.

You are doing the works of your father. They said to him, We are true sons of Abraham; we have one Father, who is God.

Jesus said to them, If God was your Father you would have love for me, because it was from God I came and am here. I did not come of myself, but he sent me.

He who is a child of God gives ear to the words of God: your ears are not open to them because you are not from God.

Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.

Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.

Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.

So they sent a second time for the man who had been blind and they said to him, Give glory to God: it is clear to us that this man is a sinner.

We are certain that God gave his word to Moses: but as for this man, we have no knowledge where he comes from.

We have knowledge that God does not give ear to sinners, but if any man is a worshipper of God and does his pleasure, to him God's ears are open.

If this man did not come from God he would be unable to do anything.

This was their answer: We are not stoning you for a good work but for evil words; because being a man you make yourself God.

If he said they were gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Writings may not be broken),

When this came to his ears, Jesus said, The end of this disease is not death, but the glory of God, so that the Son of God may have glory because of it.

But I am certain that, even now, whatever request you make to God, God will give it to you.

She said to him, Yes, Lord: my faith is that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.

Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?

And not for that nation only, but for the purpose of uniting in one body the children of God all over the world.

For the praise of men was dearer to them than the approval of God.

Jesus, being conscious that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,

Then when he had gone out, Jesus said, Now is glory given to the Son of man, and God is given glory in him.

If God is given glory in him, God will give him glory in himself, and will give him glory even now.

Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.

For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.

Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.

And this is eternal life: to have knowledge of you, the only true God, and of him whom you have sent, even Jesus Christ.

And the Jews made answer, We have a law, and by that law it is right for him to be put to death because he said he was the Son of God.

Jesus gave this answer: You would have no power at all over me if it was not given to you by God; so that he who gave me up to you has the greater sin.

Jesus said to her, Do not put your hand on me, for I have not gone up to the Father: but go to my brothers and say to them, I go up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.

And Thomas said in answer, My Lord and my God!

But these are recorded, so that you may have faith that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and so that, having this faith you may have life in his name.

Now this he said, pointing out the sort of death by which he would give God glory. And after saying this, he said to him, Come after me.
