John:7:14-24
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught .
*
And the Jews marveled ,
saying , "
How does this Man know letters ,
having never studied ?"
*
Jesus answered them and said , "
My doctrine is not Mine ,
but His who sent Me .
*
If anyone wills to do His will ,
he shall know concerning the doctrine ,
whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority .
*
He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory ;
but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true ,
and no unrighteousness is in Him .
*
Did not Moses give you the law ,
yet none of you keeps the law ?
Why do you seek to kill Me ?"
*
The people answered and said , "
You have a demon .
Who is seeking to kill You ?"
*
Jesus answered and said to them , "
I did one work ,
and you all marvel .
*
Moses therefore gave you circumcision (
not that it is from Moses ,
but from the fathers ),
and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath .
*
If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath ,
so that the law of Moses should not be broken ,
are you angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath ?
*
Do not judge according to appearance ,
but judge with righteous judgment ."
