John 5:31–47
31 “aIf I alone testify about Myself, My testimony is not 1true.
32 “There is aanother who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.
33 “You have sent to John, and he ahas testified to the truth.
34 “But athe testimony which I receive is not from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved.
35 “He was athe lamp that was burning and was shining and you bwere willing to rejoice for 1a while in his light.
36 “But the testimony which I have is greater than the testimony of John; for athe works which the Father has given Me bto accomplish—the very works that I do—testify about Me, that the Father chas sent Me.
37 “And the Father who sent Me, aHe has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His form.
38 “You do not have aHis word abiding in you, for you do not believe Him whom He bsent.
39 “1aYou search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is bthese that testify about Me;
40 and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.
41 “aI do not receive glory from men;
42 but I know you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves.
43 “I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; aif another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
44 “How can you believe, when you areceive 1glory from one another and you do not seek bthe 1glory that is from cthe one and only God?
45 “Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is aMoses, in whom you have set your hope.
46 “For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for ahe wrote about Me.
47 “But aif you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”
