John:8:12-30
mnt@John:8:12 @ Once more Jesus addressed them. "I am the light of the world," he said; "He who follows me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the Light of life."
mnt@John:8:13 @ Then said the Pharisees to him. "You are bearing testimony to yourself; your testimony is not true."
mnt@John:8:14 @ In reply Jesus said to them. "Even if I do bear testimony to concerning myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I have come from and where I am going. But you do not know where I have come from, or where I am going.
mnt@John:8:15 @ "For you are judging according to the flesh. I am judging no man.
mnt@John:8:16 @ "Though even if I do judge, my judgment is trustworthy, because I am not alone, but the Father who sent me is with me.
mnt@John:8:17 @ "And in your Law it is written that the testimony of two men is true.
mnt@John:8:18 @ "I am one who gives testimony concerning myself, and the Father who sent me gives testimony concerning me."
mnt@John:8:19 @ "Where is your Father?" they asked him. "You have neither known me nor my Father," answered Jesus. "If you had known me, you would have known my father also."
mnt@John:8:20 @ He said these words in the Treasury, while he was teaching in the Temple; yet no one arrested him, because his hour was not yet come.
mnt@John:8:21 @ Then again he said them. "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I am going, you cannot come."
mnt@John:8:22 @ Then the Jews said. "He will not kill himself, will he? Is that why he says, Where I am going you cannot come?"
mnt@John:8:23 @ And he said to them. "You are from below. I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.
mnt@John:8:24 @ "That is why I said that you would die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."
mnt@John:8:25 @ "Who are you?" then they asked him. "What I am telling you from the beginning," Jesus answered.
mnt@John:8:26 @ "I have many things to say and to judge concerning you. But he who sent me is true, and I speak to the world only those things which I have heard from him."
mnt@John:8:27 @ They did not understand that he meant the Father,
mnt@John:8:28 @ so Jesus added. "When you lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am He; and that I do nothing on my own authority, but that I speak just as the Father has taught me,
mnt@John:8:29 @ "and he who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I do always the things that please him."
mnt@John:8:30 @ When he spoke in this way, many of the Jews believed in him.
