John 5:29-36

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 judgment that I give is just, because my aim is not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

³¹“If I bear testimony to myself, my testimony is not trustworthy;

³²it is another who bears testimony to me, and I know that the testimony which he bears to me is trustworthy.

³³You have yourselves sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.

³⁴But the testimony which I receive is not from people; I am saying this for your salvation.

³⁵He was the Lamp that was burning and shining, and you were ready to rejoice, for a time, in his light.

³⁶But the testimony which I have is of greater weight than John's; for the work that the Father has given me to carry out — the work that I am doing — is in itself proof that the Father has sent me as his messenger.
