Context Readings

Additional Testimony By John The Baptist About Jesus

31 The One who comes from above [i.e., Jesus] ranks over all [others]; but the one who is out of the earth [i.e., of human origin] is [merely] an earthly [being] and he speaks in earthly [ways]. [But] the One who comes from heaven [i.e., Jesus] ranks over all [others]. 32 He testifies concerning what He has seen and heard, but no one accepts His testimony. 33 The person who has accepted Jesus' testimony has confirmed this [fact], that God is truthful.
