John 12:43-50
12:43 For they loved praise
from men more than praise
from God.
Jesus’ Final Public Words
12:44 But Jesus shouted out, “The one who believes in me does not believe in me, but in the one who sent me,
12:45 and the one who sees me sees the one who sent me.
12:46 I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in darkness.
12:47 If anyone hears my words and does not obey them, I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
12:48 The one who rejects me and does not accept my words has a judge; the word I have spoken will judge him at the last day.
12:49 For I have not spoken from my own authority, but the Father himself who sent me has commanded me what I should say and what I should speak.
12:50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Thus the things I say, I say just as the Father has told me.”
