30 |I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.
31 |If I [alone] testify about Myself, My testimony is not true.
32 |There is another 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 has testified to the truth.
34 |But the testimony which I receive is not from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved.
35 |He was the lamp that was burning and was shining and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
36 |But the testimony which I have is greater than [the testimony of] John; for the works which the Father has given Me to accomplish-- the very works that I do-- testify about Me, that the Father has sent Me.
37 |And the Father who sent Me, He has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His form.
38 |You do not have His word abiding in you, for you do not believe Him whom He sent.
39 |You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me;
40 and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.
41 |I 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; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
44 |How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and you do not seek the glory that is from the [one and] only God?
45 |Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have set your hope.
46 |For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for he wrote about Me.
47 |But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?|
