John 5:25-30

²⁵In truth I tell you that a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the dead will listen to the voice of the Son of God, and when those who listen will live.

²⁶For, just as the Father has inherent life within him, so also he has granted to the Son to have inherent life within him;

²⁷and, because he is Son of Man, he has also given him authority to act as judge.

²⁸Do not wonder at this; for the time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice,

²⁹and will come out — those who have done good rising to life, and those who have lived evil lives rising for condemnation.

³⁰I can do nothing of myself; I judge as I am taught; and the judgement that I give is just, because my aim is not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
