John 5:39-47 ▼

39 You search the Writings, because you think in them to have continuous life, and these are they that are testifying concerning Me;

40 and you do not will to come to Me, that you may have life;

41 I do not receive glory from man,

42 but I have known you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves.

43 I have come in the Name of My Father, and you do not receive Me; if another may come in his own name, him you will receive;

44 how are you able—you—to believe, receiving glory from one another, and the glory that [is] from God alone you do not seek?

45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is [one] who is accusing you, Moses—in whom you have hoped;

46 for if you were believing Moses, you would have been believing Me, for he wrote concerning Me;

47 but if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My sayings?”
