John 5:39-47

3912You examine the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is 3those very Scriptures that testify about Me;

40and yet you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.

414I do not receive glory from people;

42but I know you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves.

43I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not 5receive Me; 6if another comes in his own name, you will 7receive him.

44How can you believe, when you 89accept 10glory from one another and you do not seek 11the 12glory that is from 13the one and only God?

45Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is 14Moses, in whom you have put your hope.

46For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for 15he wrote about Me.

47But 16if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”
