“Then Moses said to God, ‘If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?’ God said to Moses, ‘I AM WHO I AM.’ And he said, ‘Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ ‘” –Exodus 3:13-14 ESV

Matthew 21:42-44 (NKJV)
42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. This was the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?
43 “Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken from you and given to a nation bearing the fruits of it.
44 And whoever falls on this stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder.”
Mateo 21:42-44 (NVI)
42 Les dijo Jesús: ―¿No habéis leído nunca en las Escrituras: »“La piedra que desecharon los constructores ha llegado a ser la piedra angular; esto es obra del Señor, y nos deja maravillados”?
43 »Por eso os digo que se os quitará el reino de Dios y se le entregará a un pueblo que produzca los frutos del reino.
44 El que caiga sobre esta piedra quedará despedazado y, si ella cae sobre alguien, lo hará polvo».
John 6:47-51 (NKJV)
47 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life.
48 I am the bread of life.
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.
Juan 6:47-51 (NVI)
47 Ciertamente os aseguro que el que cree tiene vida eterna.
48 Yo soy el pan de vida.
49 Vuestros antepasados comieron el maná en el desierto, y sin embargo murieron.
50 Pero este es el pan que baja del cielo; el que come de él no muere.
51 Yo soy el pan vivo que bajó del cielo. Si alguno come de este pan, vivirá para siempre. Este pan es mi carne, que daré para que el mundo viva.
John 15:11-16 ((NKJV)
11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.
12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.
14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.
16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.
Juan 15:11-16 (NVI)
11 Os he dicho esto para que tengáis mi alegría y vuestra alegría sea completa.
12 Y este es mi mandamiento: que os améis unos a otros, como yo os he amado.
13 Nadie tiene amor más grande que el dar la vida por sus amigos.
14 Vosotros sois mis amigos si hacéis lo que yo os mando.
15 Ya no os llamo siervos, porque el siervo no está al tanto de lo que hace su amo; os he llamado amigos, porque todo lo que a mi Padre le oí decir os lo he dado a conocer.
16 No me escogisteis vosotros a mí, sino que yo os escogí a vosotros y os comisioné para que vayáis y deis fruto, un fruto que perdure. Así el Padre os dará todo lo que le pidáis en mi nombre.
John 16:16-20 (NKJV)
16 “A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.”
17 Then some of His disciples said among themselves, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I go to the Father’?”
18 They said therefore, “What is this that He says, ‘A little while’? We do not know what He is saying.”
19 Now Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and He said to them, “Are you inquiring among yourselves about what I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’?
20 Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.
Juan 16:16-20 (NVI)
16 »Dentro de poco ya no me veréis; pero un poco después volveréis a verme».
La despedida de Jesús
17 Algunos de sus discípulos comentaban entre sí:
«¿Qué quiere decir con eso de que “dentro de poco ya no me veréis”, y “un poco después volveréis a verme”, y “porque voy al Padre”?»
18 E insistían: «¿Qué quiere decir con eso de “dentro de poco”? No sabemos de qué habla».
19 Jesús se dio cuenta de que querían hacerle preguntas acerca de esto, así que les dijo:
―¿Os estáis preguntando qué quise decir cuando dije: “Dentro de poco ya no me veréis”, y “un poco después volveréis a verme”?
20 Ciertamente os aseguro que lloraréis de dolor, mientras que el mundo se alegrará. Os pondréis tristes, pero vuestra tristeza se convertirá en alegría.
