John 7:16-20

¹⁶Jesus replied to them, “What I teach does not come from myself. It comes from God, the one who sent me.

¹⁷Those who choose to do what God wants will find out whether what I teach comes from God or whether I am speaking with only my own authority.

¹⁸Those who speak with only their own authority do that only so that others will honor them. But I am doing things so that others will honor the one who sent me, and I am someone who speaks the truth. I never lie.

¹⁹Think about the laws that Moses gave you RHQ. None of you completely obeys those laws. So why are you trying to kill me, saying I do not obey the laws concerning ◄ the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest►?”

²⁰Someone in the crowd answered, “ By saying this you show that you are crazy (OR, A demon is controlling you)! Certainly no one is trying to kill you!”
