John:5:31-47
bbe@John:5:31 @If I gave witness about myself, my witness would not be true.
bbe@John:5:32 @There is another who gives witness about me and I am certain that the witness he gives about me is true.
bbe@John:5:33 @You sent to John and he gave true witness.
bbe@John:5:34 @But I have no need of a man's witness: I only say these things so that you may have salvation.
bbe@John:5:35 @He was a burning and shining light, and for a time you were ready to be happy in his light.
bbe@John:5:36 @But the witness which I have is greater than that of John: the work which the Father has given me to do, the very work which I am now doing, is a witness that the Father has sent me.
bbe@John:5:37 @And the Father himself who sent me has given witness about me. Not one of you has ever given ear to his voice; his form you have not seen.
bbe@John:5:38 @And you have not kept his word in your hearts, because you have not faith in him whom he has sent.
bbe@John:5:39 @You make search in the holy Writings, in the belief that through them you get eternal life; and it is those Writings which give witness about me.
bbe@John:5:40 @And still you have no desire to come to me so that you may have life.
bbe@John:5:41 @I do not take honour from men;
bbe@John:5:42 @But I have knowledge of you that you have no love for God in your hearts.
bbe@John:5:43 @I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.
bbe@John:5:44 @How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?
bbe@John:5:45 @Put out of your minds the thought that I will say things against you to the Father: the one who says things against you is Moses, on whom you put your hopes.
bbe@John:5:46 @If you had belief in Moses you would have belief in me; for his writings are about me.
bbe@John:5:47 @If you have no belief in his writings, how will you have belief in my words?
