John 12:44-50
Chapter 12
44
Then Jesus cried out:
“Whoever believes in me, believes not only in me, but in him who sent me.
Openness to Salvation
45
And whoever sees me, sees him who sent me.
46
I have come into the world as light so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness.
47
If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I am not the one to condemn him; for I have come, not to condemn the world, but to save the world.
48
The one who rejects me and does not accept my words already has a judge: the very words I have spoken will condemn him on the last day,
49
for I have not spoken on my own; the Father, who sent me, has instructed me what to say and how to speak.
50
I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I speak, therefore, I speak just as the Father instructed me.”
