But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will do homage to the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father seeks such to do homage to Him.

Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to Heaven, and says: Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You,

For as the Father raises the dead and gives life, even so the Son gives life to whom He wills.

Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice

Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God.

for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry.

It was right that we should make merry and rejoice, for your brother was dead and is alive again, and was lost and is found.

Therefore we were buried with Him through immersion into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

And you being dead in trespasses and sins,

even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),

Therefore He says: Awake, you who sleep, stand forth out from among the dead, and Christ will shine on you.

And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses,

And to the angel of the church in Sardis write, These things says He who has the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: I know your works, that you have a name that you live, but you are dead.
