Luke 20:5-8 ▼

5 They talked it over among themselves. “If we say it was from heaven, he will ask why we didn’t believe John.

6 But if we say it was merely human, the people will stone us because they are convinced John was a prophet.”

7 So they finally replied that they didn’t know.

8 And Jesus responded, “Then I won’t tell you by what authority I do these things.”
