jub John:8:12-30 SEEK
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then Jesus spoke again unto them ,
saying ,
I AM the light of the world ;
he that follows me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life .
*
Then the Pharisees said unto him ,
Thou dost bear witness of thyself ;
thy witness is not true .
*
Jesus answered and said unto them ,
Though I bear witness of myself ,
my witness is true ,
for I know from where I came and where I go ;
but ye do not know where I came from and where I go .
*
Ye judge after the flesh ,
but I judge no one .
*
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 bears witness of myself ,
and the Father that sent me bears witness of me .
*
Then they said 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 .
*
Jesus spoke these words in the treasury as he taught in the temple ,
and no one laid hands on him ,
for his hour was not yet come .
*
Then Jesus said again unto them ,
I [
am ]
going away ,
and ye shall seek me ,
but ye shall die in your sins ;
where I go ,
ye shall not be able to come .
*
Then the Jews said ,
Will he kill himself ?
because he says ,
Where I go ,
ye shall not be able to come .
*
And he said unto them ,
Ye are from below ,
I am from above ;
ye are of this world ,
I am not of this world .
*
Therefore I said unto you that ye shall die in your sins ,
for if ye do not believe that I AM ,
ye shall die in your sins .
*
And said they unto him ,
Who art thou ?
Then Jesus said unto them ,
He that I said unto you also from the beginning .
*
I have many things to say and to judge regarding you ,
but he that sent me is true ;
and those things which I have heard of him ,
I speak in the world .
*
But they did not understand that he spoke to them of the Father .
*
Then Jesus said unto them ,
When ye have lifted up the Son of man ,
then ye shall know that I AM and [
that ]
I do nothing of myself ,
but as my Father has taught me ,
I speak these things .
*
And he that sent me is with me :
the Father has not left me alone ,
for I always do those things that please him .
*
As he spoke these words ,
many believed in him .
