isv John:5:16-30
isv@John:5:16 @ So the Jews began persecuting Jesus because he kept doing such things on the Sabbath.
isv@John:5:17 @ But Jesus answered them,“My Father has been working until now, and I, too, am working.”
isv@John:5:18 @ So the Jews were trying all the harder to kill him, because he was not only breaking the Sabbath but was also calling God his own Father, thus making himself equal to God.
isv@John:5:19 @ Jesus said to them,“Truly, truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing on his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For what he does, the Son does likewise.
isv@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything he is doing. And he will show him even greater works than these, so that you may be amazed.
isv@John:5:21 @ Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to those he chooses.
isv@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son,
isv@John:5:23 @ so that all may honor the Son as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
isv@John:5:24 @ “Truly, truly I tell you, the one who hears my word and believes in the one who sent me has eternal life and does not come under judgment, but has passed from death to life.
isv@John:5:25 @ Truly, truly I tell you, the hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.
isv@John:5:26 @ For just as the Father has life in himself, so also he has granted the Son to have life in himself.
isv@John:5:27 @ And he has given him authority to pass judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
isv@John:5:28 @ Don't be amazed at this, because the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice
isv@John:5:29 @ and will come out—those who have done what is good to the resurrection of life, and those who have practiced what is evil to the resurrection of condemnation.
isv@John:5:30 @ I can do nothing on my own accord. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will but the will of the one who sent me.”
