John:8:12-30
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then spake Jesus again unto them ,
saying ,
I am the light of the world :
he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness ,
but shall have the light of life .
*
The Pharisees therefore said unto him ,
Thou bearest record of thyself ;
thy record is not true .
*
Jesus answered and said unto them ,
Though I bear record of myself ,
yet my record is true :
for I know whence I came ,
and whither I go ;
but ye cannot tell whence I come ,
and whither I go .
*
Ye judge after the flesh ;
I judge no man .
*
And yet if I judge ,
my judgment is true :
for I am not alone ,
but I and the Father that sent me .
*
It is also written in your law ,
that the testimony of two men is true .
*
I am one that bear witness of myself ,
and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me .
*
Then said they unto him ,
Where is thy Father ?
Jesus answered ,
Ye neither know me ,
nor my Father :
if ye had known me ,
ye should have known my Father also .
*
These words spake Jesus in the treasury ,
as he taught in the temple :
and no man laid hands on him ;
for his hour was not yet come .
*
Then said Jesus again unto them ,
I go my way ,
and ye shall seek me ,
and shall die in your sins :
whither I go ,
ye cannot come .
*
Then said the Jews ,
Will he kill himself ?
because he saith ,
Whither I go ,
ye cannot come .
*
And he said unto them ,
Ye are from beneath ;
I am from above :
ye are of this world ;
I am not of this world .
*
I said therefore unto you ,
that ye shall die in your sins :
for if ye believe not that I am he ,
ye shall die in your sins .
*
Then said they unto him ,
Who art thou ?
And Jesus saith unto them ,
Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning .
*
I have many things to say and to judge of you :
but he that sent me is true ;
and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him .
*
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father .
*
Then said Jesus unto them ,
When ye have lifted up the Son of man ,
then shall ye know that I am he ,
and that I do nothing of myself ;
but as my Father hath taught me ,
I speak these things .
*
And he that sent me is with me :
the Father hath not left me alone ;
for I do always those things that please him .
*
As he spake these words ,
many believed on him .
