GOD (PART 3)
Taken from the HOLY BIBLE: NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION (C) 1978 by the New
York Bible Society, used by permission of Zondervan Bible Publishers.
EXO 4:22 Then say to Pharaoh, 'This is what the LORD says: Israel is my
firstborn son,
DEU 14:1 You are the children of the LORD your God. Do not cut yourselves
or shave the front of your heads for the dead,
32:5 They have acted corruptly toward him; to their shame they are no
longer his children, but a warped and crooked generation.
6 Is this the way you repay the LORD, O foolish and unwise people? Is he
not your Father, your Creator, who made you and formed you?
2SA 7:14 I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong,
I will punish him with the rod of men, with floggings inflicted by men.
1CH 28:6 He said to me: 'Solomon your son is the one who will build my
house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be his
father.
29:10 David praised the LORD in the presence of the whole assembly,
saying, "Praise be to you, O LORD, God of our father Israel, from
everlasting to everlasting.
PSA 68:5 A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his
holy dwelling.
89:26 He will call out to me, 'You are my Father, my God, the Rock my
Savior.'
ISA 1:2 Hear, O heavens! Listen, O earth! For the LORD has spoken: "I
reared children and brought them up, but they have rebelled against me.
8:18 Here am I, and the children the LORD has given me. We are signs and
symbols in Israel from the LORD Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion.
9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government
will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty
God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
63:16 But you are our Father, though Abraham does not know us or Israel
acknowledge us; you, O LORD, are our Father, our Redeemer from of old is
your name.
64:8 Yet, O LORD, you are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter;
we are all the work of your hand.
JER 3:19 "I myself said, "'How gladly would I treat you like sons and give
you a desirable land, the most beautiful inheritance of any nation.' I
thought you would call me 'Father' and not turn away from following me.
HOS 1:10 "Yet the Israelites will be like the sand on the seashore, which
cannot be measured or counted. In the place where it was said to them, 'You
are not my people,' they will be called 'sons of the living God.'
11:1 "When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my
son.
MAT 3:17 And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with
him I am well pleased."
5:45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to
rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the
unrighteous.
6:4 so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what
is done in secret, will reward you.
8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask
him.
9 "This, then, is how you should pray: "'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be
your name,
7:11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to
those who ask him!
10:20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father
speaking through you.
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to
the ground apart from the will of your Father.
32 "Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before
my Father in heaven.
33 But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father
in heaven.
11:25 At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and
earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and
revealed them to little children.
26 Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.
27 "All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the
Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those
to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
12:50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and
sister and mother."
13:43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their
Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
15:13 He replied, "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted
will be pulled up by the roots.
16:17 Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was
not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.
27 For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with his
angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done.
18:10 "See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I
tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in
heaven.
14 In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these
little ones should be lost.
19 "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you
ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven.
20:23 Jesus said to them, "You will indeed drink from my cup, but to sit
at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those
for whom they have been prepared by my Father."
26:29 I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on
until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father's kingdom."
39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed,
"My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I
will, but as you will."
MAR 8:38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and
sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when he comes in
his Father's glory with the holy angels."
11:25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone,
forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."
13:32 "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven,
nor the Son, but only the Father.
LUK 2:49 "Why were you searching for me?" he asked. "Didn't you know I had
to be in my Father's house?"
10:21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I
praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these
things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.
Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.
22 "All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who
the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the
Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."
11:13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to
your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy
Spirit to those who ask him!"
22:29 And I confer on you a kingdom, just as my Father conferred one on
me,
23:46 Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I
commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last.
24:49 I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the
city until you have been clothed with power from on high."
JOH 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have
seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father,
full of grace and truth.
18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the
Father's side, has made him known.
2:16 To those who sold doves he said, "Get these out of here! How dare you
turn my Father's house into a market!"
4:21 Jesus declared, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will
worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will
worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers
the Father seeks.
5:17 Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very
day, and I, too, am working."
18 For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was
he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making
himself equal with God.
19 Jesus gave them this answer: "I tell you the truth, the Son can do
nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because
whatever the Father does the Son also does.
20 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, to your
amazement he will show him even greater things than these.
21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the
Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it.
22 Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to
the Son,
23 that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does
not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.
36 "I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the very work that
the Father has given me to finish, and which I am doing, testifies that the
Father has sent me.
37 And the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me. You
have never heard his voice nor seen his form,
43 I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me; but if
someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.
6:27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to
eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On him God the Father has
placed his seal of approval."
32 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, it is not Moses who has
given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true
bread from heaven.
44 "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I
will raise him up at the last day.
45 It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.'
Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me.
46 No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has
seen the Father.
8:19 Then they asked him, "Where is your father?" "You do not know me or
my Father," Jesus replied. "If you knew me, you would know my Father also."
27 They did not understand that he was telling them about his Father.
38 I am telling you what I have seen in the Father's presence, and you do
what you have heard from your father."
41 You are doing the things your own father does." "We are not
illegitimate children," they protested. "The only Father we have is God
himself."
42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I
came from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me.
49 "I am not possessed by a demon," said Jesus, "but I honor my Father and
you dishonor me.
10:15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father--and I lay down my
life for the sheep.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can
snatch them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and the Father are one."
32 but Jesus said to them, "I have shown you many great miracles from the
Father. For which of these do you stone me?"
33 "We are not stoning you for any of these," replied the Jews, "but for
blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God."
36 what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent
into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, 'I
am God's Son'?
37 Do not believe me unless I do what my Father does.
38 But if I do it, even though you do not believe me, believe the
miracles, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I
in the Father."
12:26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also
will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.
27 "Now my heart is troubled, and what shall I say? 'Father, save me from
this hour'? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour.
28 Father, glorify your name!" Then a voice came from heaven, "I have
glorified it, and will glorify it again."
50 I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is
just what the Father has told me to say."
13:3 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and
that he had come from God and was returning to God;
14:2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have
told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you.
6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes
to the Father except through me.
7 If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on,
you do know him and have seen him."
8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."
9 Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among
you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can
you say, 'Show us the Father'?
10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in
me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father,
living in me, who is doing his work.
11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me;
or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.
12 I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have
been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going
to the Father.
13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring
glory to the Father.
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be
with you forever--
20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me,
and I am in you.
21 Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He
who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show
myself to him."
23 Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father
will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24 He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear
are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my
name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have
said to you.
31 but the world must learn that I love the Father and that I do exactly
what my Father has commanded me. "Come now; let us leave.
15:8 This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing
yourselves to be my disciples.
9 "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.
10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have
obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love.
16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear
fruit--fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask
in my name.
23 He who hates me hates my Father as well.
24 If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be
guilty of sin. But now they have seen these miracles, and yet they have
hated both me and my Father.
26 "When the Counselor comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the
Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father, he will testify about me.
16:3 They will do such things because they have not known the Father or
me.
10 in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you
can see me no longer;
15 All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit
will take from what is mine and make it known to you.
23 In that day you will no longer ask me anything. I tell you the truth,
my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
25 "Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will
no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my
Father.
26 In that day you will ask in my name. I am not saying that I will ask
the Father on your behalf.
27 No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have
believed that I came from God.
28 I came from the Father and entered the world; now I am leaving the
world and going back to the Father."
17:1 After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father,
the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.
5 And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with
you before the world began.
11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world,
and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your
name--the name you gave me--so that they may be one as we are one.
21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in
you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have
sent me.
24 "Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and
to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before
the creation of the world.
20:17 Jesus said, "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet returned to
the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my
Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"
21 Again Jesus said, "Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am
sending you."
ACT 1:4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this
command: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised,
which you have heard me speak about.
2:33 Exalted to the right hand of God, he has received from the Father the
promised Holy Spirit and has poured out what you now see and hear.
ROM 1:3 regarding his Son, who as to his human nature was a descendant of
David,
4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the
Son of God by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.
7 To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be saints: Grace and
peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
8:15 For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to
fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, "Abba,
Father."
1CO 8:6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things
came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through
whom all things came and through whom we live.
15:24 Then the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the
Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power.
2CO 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the
Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,
6:18 "I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty."
GAL 1:1 Paul, an apostle--sent not from men nor by man, but by Jesus
Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead--
4 who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age,
according to the will of our God and Father,
4:4 But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman,
born under law,
5 to redeem those under law, that we might receive the full rights of
sons.
6 Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts,
the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father."
7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God
has made you also an heir.
EPH 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has
blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious
Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may
know him better.
2:18 For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
3:14 For this reason I kneel before the Father,
4:6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
5:20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of
our Lord Jesus Christ.
COL 1:3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we
pray for you,
12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the
inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.
2:2 My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love,
so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order
that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ,
3:17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name
of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
1TH 1:1 Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God
the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace and peace to you.
3 We continually remember before our God and Father your work produced by
faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in
our Lord Jesus Christ.
3:11 Now may our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus clear the way
for us to come to you.
13 May he strengthen your hearts so that you will be blameless and holy in
the presence of our God and Father when our Lord Jesus comes with all his
holy ones.
2TH 1:1 Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God
our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2:16 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us
and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope,
HEB 1:5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, "You are my Son;
today I have become your Father"? Or again, "I will be his Father, and he
will be my Son"?
6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, "Let
all God's angels worship him."
12:9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we
respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our
spirits and live!
JAM 1:17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the
Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
27 Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to
look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from
being polluted by the world.
3:9 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse
men, who have been made in God's likeness.
1PE 1:2 who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the
Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus
Christ and sprinkling by his blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance.
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great
mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection
of Jesus Christ from the dead,
17 Since you call on a Father who judges each man's work impartially, live
your lives as strangers here in reverent fear.
1JO 1:2 The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we
proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has
appeared to us.
2:1 My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if
anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense--
Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.
13 I write to you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the
beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil
one. I write to you, dear children, because you have known the Father.
15 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the
world, the love of the Father is not in him.
22 Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ.
Such a man is the antichrist--he denies the Father and the Son.
23 No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son
has the Father also.
24 See that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it
does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.
3:1 How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be
called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does
not know us is that it did not know him.
4:14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be
the Savior of the world.
2JO 1:3 Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ,
the Father's Son, will be with us in truth and love.
4 It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the
truth, just as the Father commanded us.
9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ
does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father
and the Son.
JUD 1:1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, To those
who have been called, who are loved by God the Father and kept by Jesus
Christ:
REV 1:5 and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn
from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us
and has freed us from our sins by his blood,
6 and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father-
-to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.
3:5 He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never
blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name
before my Father and his angels.
14:1 Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount
Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father's name written
on their foreheads.
