John 12:43-50

43 ¹for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God.

Jesus Came to Save the World

44 And Jesus cried out and said, ²"Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but ³in him who sent me.

45 And ⁴whoever ⁵sees me sees him who sent me.

46 ⁶I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness.

47 If anyone ⁷hears my words and does not keep them, ⁸I do not judge him; for ⁹I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

48 ¹⁰The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; ¹¹the word that I have spoken will judge him ¹²on the last day.

49 For ¹³I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father ¹⁴who sent me has himself given me ¹⁵a commandment--what to say and what to speak.

50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me."
