Myself

Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry!”’

Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

I myself did not know Him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that He might be revealed to Israel.”

I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’

I can do nothing by Myself; I judge only as I hear. And My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

If I testify about Myself, My testimony is not valid.

Jesus replied, “Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is valid, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I came from or where I am going.

I am One who testifies about Myself, and the Father, who sent Me, also testifies about Me.”

Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory means nothing. The One who glorifies Me is My Father, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’

And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw everyone to Myself.”

Whoever has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me. The one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and reveal Myself to him.”

For them I sanctify Myself, so that they too may be sanctified by the truth.

But Peter helped him up. “Stand up,” he said, “I am only a man myself.”

Paul looked directly at the Sanhedrin and said, “Brothers, I have conducted myself before God in all good conscience to this day.”

But Festus replied, “Paul is being held in Caesarea, and I myself am going there soon.

Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear this man myself.” “Tomorrow you will hear him,” Festus declared.

“King Agrippa, I consider myself fortunate to stand before you today to defend myself against all the accusations of the Jews,

“King Agrippa, I consider myself fortunate to stand before you today to defend myself against all the accusations of the Jews,

For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my own flesh and blood,

And Isaiah boldly says: “I was found by those who did not seek Me; I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me.”

I ask then, did God reject His people? Certainly not! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin.

And what was the divine reply to him? “I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.”

I myself am convinced, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, brimming with knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

I care very little, however, if I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.

Brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us not to go beyond what is written. Then you will not take pride in one man over another.

Though I am free of obligation to anyone, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible.

To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), to win those under the law.

No, I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

I consider myself in no way inferior to those “super-apostles.”

Was it a sin for me to humble myself in order to exalt you, because I preached the gospel of God to you free of charge?

I will boast about such a man, but I will not boast about myself, except in my weaknesses.

And for the sake of your souls, I will most gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love me less?

If I rebuild what I have already torn down, I prove myself to be a lawbreaker.

And I trust in the Lord that I myself will come soon.

…though I myself could have such confidence. If anyone else thinks he has grounds for confidence in the flesh, I have more:

Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
