  “The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him you shall listen—

  The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.”

• John 18:23-24
  

  Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the word that you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me.

• 1 John 5:20
