The Book Of John John 8:12-17

for educators
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in
darkness, but will have the light of life.” So the Pharisees said to Him, “You are bearing witness
about Yourself; Your testimony is not true.” Jesus answered, “Even if I do bear witness about
Myself, My testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going, but you do not
know where I come from or where I am going. You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one. Yet
even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone Who judge, but I and the Father Who
sent Me. In your Law it is written that the testimony of two people is true.

There’s a Word for that! Good

We know good when we see it in the classroom. It may come in the form of kindness, courtesy or
even encouragement. Let us walk humbly with our God and be just each day.

walk humbly with your God.
