John 10: 31 - 42
|
| 31 | The Jews took up stones again to stone him. |
| 32 | Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of these do you stone me?" |
| 33 | The Jews answered him, "It is not for a good work that we stone you but for blasphemy; because you, being a man, make yourself God." |
| 34 | Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, `I said, you are gods'? |
| 35 | If he called them gods to whom the word of God came (and scripture cannot be broken), |
| 36 | do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, `You are blaspheming,' because I said, `I am the Son of God'? |
| 37 | If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me; |
| 38 | but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father." |
| 39 | Again they tried to arrest him, but he escaped from their hands. |
| 40 | He went away again across the Jordan to the place where John at first baptized, and there he remained. |
| 41 | And many came to him; and they said, "John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true." |
| 42 | And many believed in him there. |
