Equal With God

16 The Jews persecuted Jesus because he did these things on the Sabbath. 17 But He answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I Myself am working.” 18 The Jews intensified their efforts to kill him for these reasons: he broke the Sabbath and he also called God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
