John 5:18-23

¹⁸This was why the Jews tried even harder to kill him, for not only did he break the Sabbath but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God.

¹⁹Jesus explained to them, “I tell you the truth, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can only do what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does the Son does as well.

²⁰For the Father loves the Son, and reveals to him everything he does; and the Father will show to him even more incredible things that will completely amaze you.

²¹For just as the Father gives life to those he resurrects from the dead, in the same way the Son also gives life to those that he wants.

²²The Father judges no one. He has given to the Son all the authority to judge,

²³so that everyone may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Anyone who doesn't honor the Son doesn't honor the Father who sent him.
