John 10:17-21

¹⁷On this account the Father loves me, because I lay down my life that I may take it again.

¹⁸No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment of my Father.

¹⁹There was a division again among the Jews on account of these words;

²⁰but many of them said, He has a demon and raves; why do ye hear him?

²¹Others said, These sayings are not those of one that is possessed by a demon. Can a demon open blind people's eyes?
