"And they came unto John, and said unto him, "Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness,
behold, the same baptizeth and all men come to HIM." John answered them and said, " a man can receive nothing except
it be given him from heaven. Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, " I am not The Christ, but that I am sent before
HIM. HE that hath the bride is the bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth
greatly because of the bridegroom's voice; this my joy is therefore fulfilled. HE [JESUS] must increase, but I must decrease.
HE that cometh from above is above all, he that is of the earth is earthly and speaketh of the earth, but HE that cometh from
heaven is above all. And what HE hath seen and heard, that HE testifieth, and no man receiveth HIS testimony. He that receiveth
HIS testimony hath set to his seal that GOD IS TRUE. For he whom GOD hath sent speaketh the words of GOD; for GOD giveth not
THE SPIRIT by [limited] measure, unto HIM. THE FATHER loveth THE SON, and hath given HIM all things unto HIS hand. He that
believeth on THE SON, hath everlasting life; and he that believeth not on THE SON shall not see life; but the wrath of GOD
abideth on him ." John 3:26-36

"HE {JESUS] left Judea, and departed again unto Galilee. And HE must needs go through Samaria. Then cometh HE to a city
of Samaria, which is called "Sy-char" near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Now Jacob's
well was there. JESUS therefore, being wearied, with HIS journey, sat thus on the well, and it was about the sixth hour. There
cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. JESUS saith unto her, 'give me to drink'. For HIS disciples were gone away unto the
city to buy meat. Then saith the woman of Samaria unto HIM; 'how is it that THOU being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am
a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.' 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.' The woman saith unto HIM, 'Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; from whence then
hast thou that living water? Art THOU greater than our father Jacob which gave us the well and drank thereof himself, and
his children and his cattle?' JESUS answered and said unto her, 'whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again. But
whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst,but the water that I shall give him shall be in him
a well of water springing up into everlasting life. " John 4:3-14
