31rIf I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. 32There is sanother that beareth witness of me; and tI know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true. 33uYe sent unto John, and vhe bare witness unto the truth. 34But wI receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved. 35He xwas a burning and ya shining zlight: and ye were willing afor a season to rejoice in his light. 36But I have bgreater witness than that of John: for bbthe works which cthe Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that ccthe Father hath sent me. 37And the Father himself, ccwhich hath sent me, dhath borne witness of me. Ye have neither eheard his voice at any time, nor fseen his shape. 38And gye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not. 39hSearch the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and ithey are they which testify of me. 40And kye will not come to me, that ye might have life. 41I receive not lhonour from men. 42But mI know you, that ye have not nthe love of God in you. 43nnI am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if oanother shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. 44How can ye believe, which receive phonour one of another, and seek not qthe honour that cometh from God qqonly? 45Do not think rthat I will accuse you to the Father: sthere is one that accuseth you, even Moses, tin whom ye trust. 46For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for uhe wrote of me. 47But if ye believe not his xwritings, yhow shall ye believe my words?
