John 5:33-40

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.

³⁷And the Father that sent me, he hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.

³⁸And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he sent, him ye believe not.

³⁹Ye search the scriptures, because ye think that in them ye have eternal life; and these are they which bear witness of me;

⁴⁰and ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.
