John 3:27-35

27John answered, “A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven.

28You yourselves testify that I said, ‘I am not the Messiah,’ but rather, ‘I am sent before Him.’

29The one who has the bride is the bridegroom, but the best man rejoices when he stands and hears the bridegroom’s voice. So now my joy is complete!

30He must increase, while I must decrease.”

31The One who comes from above is above all. The one who is from the earth is of the earth, and of the earth he speaks. The One who comes from heaven is above all.

32And what He has seen and heard, He testifies to that; yet no one receives His testimony.

33Whoever receives His testimony has certified that God is true.

34The One whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Ruach without limit.

35The Father loves the Son and has given everything into His hand.
