John 12:44-50

44 And Jesus cried out and said, "1He who believes in Me, does not believe in Me but in Him who sent Me.
45 "2He who sees Me sees the One who sent Me.
46 "3I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.
47 "If anyone hears My sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for 4I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 "5He who rejects Me and does not receive My sayings, has one who judges him; 6the word I spoke is what will judge him at 7the last day.
49 "8For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me 9has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak.
50 "I know that 10His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak 11just as the Father has told Me."
