John 12:42-46

42Nevertheless, many did believe in him even among the rulers, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, so that they would not be banned from the synagogue.

43For they loved human praise more than praise from God.

44Jesus cried out, “The one who believes in me believes not in me, but in him who sent me.

45And the one who sees me sees him who sent me.

46I have come as light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me would not remain in darkness.
