John 5:25-47

25 I tell you the truth, the time is coming and is already here when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will have life.

26 Life comes from the Father himself, and he has allowed the Son to have life in himself as well.

27 And the Father has given the Son the power to judge, because he is the Son of Man.

28 Don't be surprised at this: A time is coming when all who are dead and in their graves will hear his voice.

29 Then they will come out of their graves. Those who did good will rise and have life forever, but those who did evil will rise to be judged guilty.

30 "I can do nothing alone. I judge only the way I am told, so my judgment is fair. I don't try to please myself, but I try to please the One who sent me.

31 "If only I tell people about myself, what I say is not true.

32 But there is another who tells about me, and I know that the things he says about me are true.

33 "You have sent people to John, and he has told you the truth.

34 It is not that I accept such human telling; I tell you this so you can be saved.

35 John was like a burning and shining lamp, and you were happy to enjoy his light for a while.

36 "But I have a proof about myself that is greater than that of John. The things I do, which are the things my Father gave me to do, prove that the Father sent me.

37 And the Father himself who sent me has given proof about me. You have never heard his voice or seen what he looks like.

38 His teaching does not live in you, because you don't believe in the One the Father sent.

39 You carefully study the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. They do in fact tell about me,

40 but you refuse to come to me to have that life.

41 "I don't need praise from people.

42 But I know you -- I know that you don't have God's love in you.

43 I have come from my Father and speak for him, but you don't accept me. But when another person comes, speaking only for himself, you will accept him.

44 You try to get praise from each other, but you do not try to get the praise that comes from the only God. So how can you believe?

45 Don't think that I will stand before the Father and say you are wrong. The one who says you are wrong is Moses, the one you hoped would save you.

46 If you really believed Moses, you would believe me, because Moses wrote about me.

47 But if you don't believe what Moses wrote, how can you believe what I say?"
