John 12:42-46

42Nevertheless, many even of the authorities believed in him, but for fear of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue;

43for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God.

44And Jesus cried out and said, "Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me.

45And whoever sees me sees him who sent me.

46I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness.
