John 5:31-47

31IfG1437 IG1473 testifyG3140 aboutG4012 MyselfG1683, MyG1473 testimonyG3141 isG1510 notG3756 validG227. 32There isG1510 anotherG243 whoG3588 testifiesG3140 aboutG4012 MeG1473, andG2532 I knowG1492 thatG3754 His testimonyG3141G3739G3140 aboutG4012 MeG1473 isG1510 validG227.

33YouG4771 have sentG649 toG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 he has testifiedG3140 to theG3588 truthG225. 34Even though IG1473 do notG3756 acceptG2983 humanG3844G444 testimonyG3141, I sayG3004 these thingsG3778 so thatG2443 youG4771 may be savedG4982.

35John wasG1510 aG3588 lampG3088 thatG3588 burnedG2545 andG2532 gave lightG5316, andG1161 youG4771 were willingG2309 forG4314 a seasonG5610 to baskG21 inG1722 hisG846 lightG5457. 36ButG1161 IG1473 haveG2192 testimonyG3141 more substantial thanG3173 thatG3588 of JohnG2491. ForG1063 theG3588 worksG2041 thatG3739 theG3588 FatherG3962 has givenG1325 MeG1473 to accomplishG5048G846—theG3588 veryG846 worksG2041 I am doingG4160—testifyG3140 aboutG4012 MeG1473 thatG3754 theG3588 FatherG3962 has sentG649 MeG1473. 37AndG2532 the FatherG3962 whoG3588 sentG3992 MeG1473 has Himself testifiedG3140G1565 aboutG4012 MeG1473. You have never heardG3777G4455G191 HisG846 voiceG5456 norG3777 seenG3708 HisG846 formG1491, 38nor does HisG846 wordG3056 abideG3306 inG1722 youG4771, becauseG3754 youG4771 do notG3756 believeG4100 theG3778G3739 One HeG1565 sentG649.

39You pore overG2045 theG3588 ScripturesG1124 becauseG3754 youG4771 presume thatG1380 byG1722 themG846 you possessG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222. TheseG1565 areG1510 theG3588 very words that testifyG3140 aboutG4012 MeG1473, 40yetG2532 you refuseG3756G2309 to comeG2064 toG4314 MeG1473 toG2443 haveG2192 lifeG2222.

41I do not acceptG3756G2983 gloryG1391 fromG3844 menG444, 42butG235 I knowG1097 youG4771, thatG3754 you do not haveG3756G2192 theG3588 loveG26 of GodG2316 withinG1722 youG1438. 43IG1473 have comeG2064 inG1722 MyG1473 Father’sG3962 nameG3686, andG2532 you have not receivedG3756G2983 MeG1473; but ifG1437 someone elseG243 comesG2064 inG1722 his ownG2398 nameG3686, you will receiveG2983 himG1565. 44HowG4459 canG1410 youG4771 believeG4100 if you acceptG2983 gloryG1391 fromG3844 one anotherG240, yetG2532 do not seekG3756G2212 theG3588 gloryG1391 thatG3588 comes fromG3844 theG3588 onlyG3441 GodG2316?

45Do not thinkG3361G1380 thatG3754 IG1473 will accuseG2723 youG4771 beforeG4314 theG3588 FatherG3962. YourG4771 accuserG2723 isG1510 MosesG3475, inG1519 whomG3739 youG4771 have put your hopeG1679. 46IfG1487 you had believedG4100 MosesG3475, you would believeG302G4100 MeG1473, becauseG1063 heG1565 wroteG1125 aboutG4012 MeG1473. 47ButG1161 sinceG1487 you do not believeG3756G4100 whatG3588 heG1565 wroteG1121, howG4459 will you believeG4100 whatG3588 IG1699 sayG4487?”
