36 But I have a greater testimony than that of John; for the works which my Father has given me to finish, the same works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father has sent me. 37 And the Father who sent me has testified concerning me. But you have never heard his voice, nor seen his appearance. 38 And his word does not abide in you, because you do not believe in him whom he has sent. 39 Examine the scriptures, in which you trust that you have eternal life; and even they testify concerning me. 40 Yet you will not come to me, that you might have life everlasting. 41 I do not receive any praise from men. 42 But I know you well, that the love of God is not in you. 43 I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not receive me; if another should come in his own name, you will receive him. 44 How can you believe, when you accept praise one from another, but the praise from God only, you do not want? 45 Why, do you think that I will accuse you before the Father; there is one who will accuse you, even Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you had believed in Moses, you would also have believed in me; because Moses wrote concerning me. 47 If you do not believe his writings, how then can you believe my words?
