John 8:12-30

12Then Jesus spoke again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. 13The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou barest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true. 14Jesus answered and said to them, Though I witness concerning myself, yet my witness is true: for I know from where I came, and where I go; but ye cannot tell from where I come, and where I go. 15Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. 16And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. 17It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. 18I am one that bear witness concerning myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness concerning me. 19Then said they to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also. 20These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

21Then said Jesus again to them, I am going away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: where I go, ye cannot come. 22Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Where I go, ye cannot come. 23And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. 24I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. 25Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith to them, Even the same that I said to you from the beginning. 26I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard from him. 27They understood not that he spoke to them concerning the Father. 28Then said Jesus to them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. 29And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. 30As he spoke these words, many believed on him.
