John:12:37-50
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But though he had done so many signs before them ,
they believed not on him ,
*
that the word of the prophet Esaias which he said might be fulfilled ,
Lord ,
who has believed our report ?
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed ?
*
On this account they could not believe ,
because Esaias said again ,
*
He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart ,
that they may not see with their eyes ,
and understand with their heart and be converted ,
and I should heal them .
*
These things said Esaias because he saw his glory and spoke of him .
*
Although indeed from among the rulers also many believed on him ,
but on account of the Pharisees did not confess [
him ],
that they might not be put out of the synagogue :
*
for they loved glory from men rather than glory from God .
*
But Jesus cried and said ,
He that believes on me ,
believes not on me ,
but on him that sent me ;
*
and he that beholds me ,
beholds him that sent me .
*
I am come into the world [
as ]
light ,
that every one that believes on me may not abide in darkness ;
*
and if any one hear my words and do not keep [
them ],
I judge him not ,
for I am not come that I might judge the world ,
but that I might save the world .
*
He that rejects me and does not receive my words ,
has him who judges him :
the word which I have spoken ,
that shall judge him in the last day .
*
For I have not spoken from myself ,
but the Father who sent me has himself given me commandment what I should say and what I should speak ;
*
and I know that his commandment is life eternal .
What therefore I speak ,
as the Father has said to me ,
so I speak .
