John [Yah is gracious] 8:12-47

¹²Again, therefore, Yeshua Salvation spoke to them, saying, “ Ena Na I AM (the Living God), the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”

¹³The Pharisees Separated therefore said to him, “You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.”

¹⁴Yeshua Salvation answered them, “Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you don’t know where I came from, or where I am going.

¹⁵You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.

¹⁶Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad· who sent me.

¹⁷It’s also written in your Torah ·Teaching· that the testimony of two people is valid.

¹⁸Ena Na I AM (the Living God) that testifies about myself, and Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad· who sent me testifies about me.”

¹⁹They said therefore to him, “Where is your Abba Father?” Yeshua Salvation answered, “You know neither me, nor 'Avi ·my Father·. If you knew me, you would know 'Avi ·my Father· also.”

²⁰Yeshua Salvation spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.

²¹Yeshua Salvation said therefore again to them, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can’t come.”

²²The Jews Praisers therefore said, “Will he kill himself, that he says, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come’?”

²³He said to them, “You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.

²⁴I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that Ena Na I AM (the Living God), you will die in your sins.”

²⁵They said therefore to him, “Who are you?” Yeshua Salvation said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.

²⁶I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world.”

²⁷They didn’t understand that he spoke to them about haAbba ·the Father·.

²⁸Yeshua Salvation therefore said to them, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that Ena Na I AM (the Living God), and I do nothing of myself, but as 'Avi ·my Father· taught me, I say these things.

²⁹He who sent me is with me. Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad· has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”

³⁰As he spoke these things, many believed in him.

³¹Yeshua Salvation therefore said to those Jews Praisers who had believed him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.

³²You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

³³They answered him, “We are Abraham Father of a multitude’s offspring, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, ‘You will be made free’?”

³⁴Yeshua Salvation answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bond-servant of sin.

³⁵A bond-servant does not live in the house forever. A son remains forever.

³⁶If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

³⁷I know that you are Abraham Father of a multitude’s offspring, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.

³⁸I say the things which I have seen with 'Avi ·my Father·; and you also do the things which you have seen with 'Avikah ·your Father·.”

³⁹They answered him, “Abraham Father of a multitude is Avinu ·our Father·.” Yeshua Salvation said to them, “If you were Abraham Father of a multitude’s children, you would do the works of Abraham Father of a multitude.

⁴⁰But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham Father of a multitude didn’t do this.

⁴¹You do the works of your Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·.” They said to him, “We were not born of porhneia ·sexual immorality·; we have one Abba Father, God.”

⁴²Therefore Yeshua Salvation said to them, “If God were your Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, you would have agapao ·total devotion love· towards me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of myself, but he sent me.

⁴³Why don’t you understand my speech? Because you can’t hear my word.

⁴⁴You are of your Abba father, the devil, and you want to do the epithumia ·lusts, desires· of 'Avikah ·your Father·. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·.

⁴⁵But because I tell the truth, you don’t believe me.

⁴⁶Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?

⁴⁷He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.”
