JOHN 5:24-36

²⁴Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not into judgment, but hath passed out of death into life.

²⁵Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour cometh, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear shall live.

²⁶For as the Father hath life in himself, even so gave he to the Son also to have life in himself:

²⁷and he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man.

²⁸Marvel not at this: for the hour cometh, in which all that are in the tombs shall hear his voice,

²⁹And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done ill, unto the resurrection of judgment.

³⁰I can of myself do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is righteous; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

³¹If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

³²It is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

³³Ye have sent unto John, and he hath borne witness unto the truth.

³⁴But the witness which I receive is not from man: howbeit I say these things, that ye may be saved.

³⁵He was the lamp that burneth and shineth: and ye were willing to rejoice for a season in his light.

³⁶But the witness which I have is greater than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to accomplish, the very works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
