14 For many are ^fcalled, but few are ^fchosen.”

20 As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately ^oreceives it with joy, 21 yet he has no root in himself, but ^pendures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately ^qhe falls away.¹

4 For it is impossible, in the case of those ^qwho have once been enlightened, who have tasted ^rthe heavenly gift, and ^shave shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 and ^thave tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come,

44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me ^qdraws him. And ^rI will raise him up on the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets, ^s‘And they will all be ^ttaught by God.’ ^uEveryone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me—

65 And he said, “This is why I told you ^ethat no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father.”

24 Let ^mwhat you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then ⁿyou too will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he made to us¹—^oeternal life.

12 And there is ^asalvation ^bin no one else, for ^cthere is no other ^dname under heaven given among men¹ by which we must be saved.”

22 ^yYou worship what you do not know; ^zwe worship what we know, for ^zsalvation is ^afrom the Jews.

3 ^tAnd this is eternal life, ^uthat they know you, ^vthe only ^wtrue God, and ^xJesus Christ whom you have sent.
