John 3:30-34

³⁰He must become more important, and I must become less important.”

³¹He who comes from above is greater than all; he who comes from the earth belongs to the earth and talks about earthly things. He who comes from heaven is greater than all.

³²He gives evidence about what he has seen and heard, but no one accepts what he has to say.

³³Yet anyone who accepts what he says confirms that God is truthful.

³⁴For the one God sent speaks God's words, because God doesn't restrict the Spirit.
