John 3:30-34

³⁰It is necessary for Jesus to become more important by making more disciples than I have, and for me to become less important.”

³¹Jesus came from heaven. He is more important than anyone else. Those who are born from parents here on earth MTY are just humans, and they speak about things that happen here on the earth. But since Jesus came from heaven, his words are more important than anyone else's.

³²He tells people what he has seen and what he heard in heaven, but very few people HYP listen to what he says.

³³Those who have accepted what he has said verify that what God has said is true.

³⁴We know it is true because Jesus, the one God sent, speaks the message of God. That is also true because God causes his Spirit to live in Jesus to completely direct everything he says and does.
