He must become more important while I become less important.&#8221;<n id="1" />p>

concerning sin, because<n id="1" /> they do not believe in me;<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.<n id="1" />

&#8220;Whoever welcomes<n id="1" /> one of these little children<n id="2" /> in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;The one who listens<n id="1" /> to you listens to me,<n id="2" /> and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects<n id="3" /> the one who sent me.&#8221;<n id="4" />p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">But Jesus shouted out,<n id="1" /> &#8220;The one who believes in me does not believe in me, but in the one who sent me,<n id="2" />

I tell you the solemn truth,<n id="1" /> whoever accepts<n id="2" /> the one I send accepts me, and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.&#8221;<n id="3" />p>

And Isaiah is even bold enough to say, &#8220;<b><i>I was found by those who did not seek me; I became well known to those who did not ask for mei>b>.&#8221;<n id="1" />

For you will always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me!<n id="1" />

And who am I<n id="1" /> that the mother of my Lord should come and visit me?

For you will always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me!&#8221;<n id="1" />p>

and the one who sees me sees the one who sent me.<n id="1" />

The one who hates me hates my Father too.

They<n id="1" /> will do these things because they have not known the Father or me.<n id="2" />

He<n id="1" /> will glorify me,<n id="2" /> because he will receive<n id="3" /> from me what is mine<n id="4" /> and will tell it to you.<n id="5" />

Just as you sent me into the world, so I sent them into the world.<n id="1" />

But there are some Jews from the province of Asia<n id="1" /> who should be here before you and bring charges,<n id="2" /> if they have anything against me.

Thus I am eager<n id="1" /> also to preach the gospel to you who are in Rome.<n id="2" />p>

This is my defense to those who examine me.

So I hope to send him as soon as I know more about my situation,
