John 5:31-40
31) "If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.
32) It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.
33) You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
34) But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.
35) He was the lamp that burns and shines, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
36) But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John, for the works which the Father has given me to accomplish, the very works that I do, testify about me, that the Father has sent me.
37) The Father himself, who sent me, has testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
38) You don‘t have his word living in you; for whom he sent, him you don‘t believe.
39) You search the scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.
40) Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.
John 10:22-42
22) It was the Feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem.
23) It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon‘s porch.
24) The Jews therefore came around him and said to him, "How long will you hold us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."
25) Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you don‘t believe. The works that I do in my Father‘s name, these testify about me.
26) But you don‘t believe, because you are not of my sheep, as I told you.
27) My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
28) I give eternal life to them. They will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.
29) My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of my Father‘s hand.
30) I and the Father are one."
31) Therefore Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32) Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good works from my Father. For which of those works do you stone me?"
33) The Jews answered him, "We don‘t stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy: because you, being a man, make yourself God."
34) Jesus answered them, "Isn‘t it written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods?‘
35) If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the scripture can‘t be broken),
36) Do you say of him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You blaspheme,‘ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God?‘
37) If I don‘t do the works of my Father, don‘t believe me.
38) But if I do them, though you don‘t believe me, believe the works; that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."
39) They sought again to seize him, and he went forth out of their hand.
40) He went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John was at the first baptizing, and there he stayed.
41) Many came to him. They said, "John indeed did no sign, but everything whatever that John said about this man is true."
42) Many believed in him there.
