John 5:24-47 ▼

24 Verely verely I saye vnto you: He that heareth my wordes and beleveth on him that sent me hath everlastinge lyfe and shall not come into damnacion: but is scaped fro deth vnto lyfe.

25 Verely verely I saye vnto you: the tyme shall come and now is when the deed shall heare the voyce of the sonne of God. And they yt heare shall live.

26 For as the father hath life in him silfe: so lyke wyse hath he geven to ye sonne to have lyfe in him silfe:

27 and hath geven him power also to iudge in that he is the sonne of man.

28 Marvayle not at this ye houre shall come in the which all yt are in the graves shall heare his voice

29 and shall come forthe: they that have done good vnto the resurreccion of lyfe: and they that have done evyll vnto the resurreccion of dampnacion.

30 I can of myne awne selfe do nothinge at all. As I heare I iudge and my iudgemet is iust because I seke not myne awne will but the will of ye father which hath sent me.

31 Yf I beare witnes of my selfe my witnes is not true.

32 Ther is a nother that beareth witnes of me and I am sure that the witnes whiche he beareth of me is true.

33 Ye sent vnto Iohn and he bare witnes vnto the truthe.

34 But I receave not the recorde of man. Neverthelesse these thinges I saye that ye might be safe.

35 He was a burninge and a shyninge light and ye wolde for a season have reioysed in his light.

36 But I have greater witnes then the witnes of Iohn. For ye workes which ye father hath geve me to fynisshe: the same workes which I do beare witnes of me that ye father sent me.

37 And the father him silfe which hath sent me beareth witnes of me. Ye have not hearde his voyce at eny tyme nor ye have sene his shape:

38 therto his wordes have ye not abydinge in you. For whome he hath sent: him ye beleve not.

39 Searche the scriptures for in them ye thinke ye have eternall lyfe: and they are they which testify of me.

40 And yet will ye not come to me that ye might have lyfe.

41 I receave not prayse of men.

42 But I knowe you that ye have not the love of God in you

43 I am come in my fathers name and ye receave me not. Yf another shall come in his awne name him will ye receave.

44 How can ye beleve which receave honoure one of another and seke not the honoure that commeth of God only?

45 Doo not thinke that I wyll accuse you to my father. Ther is one that accuseth you eve Moses in whom ye trust.

46 For had ye beleved Moses ye wold have beleved me: for he wrote of me.

47 But now ye beleve not his writinge: how shall ye beleve my wordes.
