Juan 14:1-6 (NVI) 1 »No os angustiéis. Confiad en Dios, confiad también en mí. 2 En el hogar de mi Padre hay muchas viviendas; si no fuera así, ya os lo habría dicho. Voy a prepararos un lugar. 3 Y, si me voy y os lo preparo, vendré para llevaros conmigo. Así estaréis donde yo esté. 4 Vosotros ya conocéis el camino para ir a donde yo voy». Jesús, el camino al Padre 5 Dijo entonces Tomás: ―Señor, no sabemos a dónde vas, así que ¿cómo podemos conocer el camino? 6 ―Yo soy el camino, la verdad y la vida —le contestó Jesús—. Nadie llega al Padre sino por mí.

“Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.” –1 Corinthians 9:24-27 KJV
“For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.” –2 Timothy 4:6-8 KJV
“Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” –Philippians 3:12-14 KJV
“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” –Hebrews 12:1-2 KJV
“I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.” –Ecclesiastes 9:11 KJV
“And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.” –Matthew 10:22 KJV
John 8:3-12 (NKJV) 3 Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, 4 they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?” 6 This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear. 7 So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” 8 And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?” 11 She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.” 12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”
Juan 8:3-12 (NVI) 3 Los maestros de la ley y los fariseos llevaron entonces a una mujer sorprendida en adulterio y, poniéndola en medio del grupo, 4 dijeron a Jesús: ―Maestro, a esta mujer se le ha sorprendido en el acto mismo de adulterio. 5 En la ley Moisés nos ordenó apedrear a tales mujeres. ¿Tú qué dices? 6 Con esta pregunta le estaban tendiendo una trampa, para tener de qué acusarlo. Pero Jesús se inclinó y con el dedo comenzó a escribir en el suelo. 7 Y, como ellos lo acosaran con preguntas, Jesús se incorporó y les dijo: ―Aquel de vosotros que esté libre de pecado, que tire la primera piedra. 8 E inclinándose de nuevo, siguió escribiendo en el suelo. 9 Al oír esto, se fueron retirando uno tras otro, comenzando por los más viejos, hasta dejar a Jesús solo con la mujer, que aún seguía allí. 10 Entonces se incorporó Jesús y le preguntó: ―Mujer, ¿dónde están? ¿Ya nadie te condena? 11 ―Nadie, Señor. ―Tampoco yo te condeno. Ahora vete, y no vuelvas a pecar. Validez del testimonio de Jesús 12 Una vez más, Jesús se dirigió a la gente, y les dijo: ―Yo soy la luz del mundo. El que me sigue no andará en tinieblas, sino que tendrá la luz de la vida.
