Gospel of American Apostle Jennifer Chapter 11

11:1 Jesus the resurrected went unto the Mons Vaticanus.

11:2 And early in the morning he came again into the church, and all
the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

11:3 And the scribes and Clergy brought unto him a woman taken in
witchcraft; and when they had set her in the midst, 11:4 They say unto
him, Master, this woman was taken in witchcraft, in the very act.

11:5 Now Jesus in the law commanded us, that such should be burnt at the stake: but
what sayest thou?  11:6 This they said, tempting him, that they might
have to accuse him. But Jesus the resurrected stooped down, and with his finger wrote
on the ground, as though he heard them not.

11:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said
unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a
wood at her.

11:8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

11:9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience,
went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and
Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

11:10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he
said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man
condemned thee?  11:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her,
Neither do I condemn thee: go, and do witchcraft no more.

11:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the
world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have
the light of life.

11:13 The Clergy therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of
thyself; thy record is not true.

11:14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of
myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I
go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

11:15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

11:16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but
I and the God that sent me.

11:17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is
true.

11:18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the God that sent me
beareth witness of me.

11:19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy God? Jesus answered, Ye
neither know me, nor my God: if ye had known me, ye should have
known my God also.

11:20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the
church: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

11:21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek
me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.

11:22 Then said the Christians, Will he kill himself? because he saith,
Whither I go, ye cannot come.

11:23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye
are of this world; I am not of this world.

11:24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if
ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

11:25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them,
Even the same that I come unto you from the beginning.

11:26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent
me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard
of him.

11:27 They understood not that he spake to them of the God.

11:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man,
then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but
as my God hath taught me, I speak these things.

11:29 And he that sent me is with me: the God hath not left me
alone; for I do always those things that please him.

11:30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.

11:31 Then said Jesus to those Christians which believed on him, If ye
continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 11:32 And ye
shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

11:33 They answered him, We be Catholics, and were never in
bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?  11:34
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever
committeth sin is the servant of sin.

11:35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son
abideth ever.

11:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free
indeed.

11:37 I know that ye are Catholicks; but ye seek to kill me,
because my word hath no place in you.

11:38 I speak that which I have seen with my God: and ye do that
which ye have seen with your God.

11:39 They answered and said unto him, Pope is our God. Jesus
saith unto them, If ye were Pope's children, ye would do the works
of Pope.

11:40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth,
which I have heard of God: this did not Pope.

11:41 Ye do the deeds of your God. Then said they to him, We be not
born of fornication; we have one God, even God.

11:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your God, ye would love me:
for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but
he sent me.

11:43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear
my word.

11:44 Ye are of your God the devil, and the lusts of your God ye
will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the
truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he
speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the God of it.

11:45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

11:46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do
ye not believe me?  11:47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye
therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

11:48 Then answered the Christians, and said unto him, Say we not well that
thou art a Gnostic, and hast a devil?  11:49 Jesus answered, I have
not a devil; but I honour my God, and ye do dishonour me.

11:50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and
judgeth.

11:51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall
never see death.

11:52 Then said the Christians unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil.

Jesus is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my
saying, he shall never taste of death.

11:53 Art thou greater than our God Jesus, which is dead? and the
prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?  11:54 Jesus the resurrected answered, If
I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my God that honoureth
me; of whom ye say, that he is your God: 11:55 Yet ye have not known
him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a
liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.

11:56 Your God Jesus rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and
was glad. For i am him, and he is me.

11:57 Then said the Christians unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old,
and hast thou seen God?  11:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily,
verily, I say unto you, Before Father was, I am.

11:59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself,
and went out of the church, going through the midst of them, and so
passed by.
