‭John‬ ‭8:12‭-‬30‬ ‭CSB‬


[12] Jesus spoke to them again: “I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life.” [13] So the Pharisees said to him, “You are testifying about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.” [14]  “Even if I testify about myself,” Jesus replied, “my testimony is true, because I know where I came from and where I’m going. But you don’t know where I come from or where I’m going. [15] You judge by human standards. I judge no one. [16] And if I do judge, my judgment is true, because it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father who sent me. [17] Even in your law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. [18] I am the one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.” [19] Then they asked him, “Where is your Father?” “You know neither me nor my Father,” Jesus answered. “If you knew me, you would also know my Father.” [20] He spoke these words by the treasury, while teaching in the temple. But no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come. [21] Then he said to them again, “I’m going away; you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I’m going, you cannot come.” [22] So the Jews said again, “He won’t kill himself, will he, since he says, ‘Where I’m going, you cannot come’?” [23]  “You are from below,” he told them, “I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. [24] Therefore I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.” [25] “Who are you?” they questioned. “Exactly what I’ve been telling you from the very beginning,” Jesus told them. [26] “I have many things to say and to judge about you, but the one who sent me is true, and what I have heard from him — these things I tell the world.” [27] They did not know he was speaking to them about the Father. [28] So Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own. But just as the Father taught me, I say these things. [29] The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what pleases him.” [30] As he was saying these things, many believed in him.
