They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. \\u201cSir,\\u201d they said, \\u201cwe would like to see Jesus.\\u201d Philip went to tell Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus.\\nJesus replied, \\u201cThe hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.\\n\\u201cNow my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? \\u2018Father, save me from this hour\\u2019? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. Father, glorify your name!\\u201d\\nThen a voice came from heaven, \\u201cI have glorified it, and will glorify it again.\\u201d The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him.\\nJesus said, \\u201cThis voice was for your benefit, not mine. Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out. And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.\\u201d He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.\\nPhoto by\\xa0Theo Crazzolara\\nThe post \\u201cThey tried to bury us\\u2026\\u201d \\u2013 John 12:20-33 appeared first on Queer Theology.'
