John 5:16-23 - Honoring The Father And The Son
16 And because of this the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill him, because he did these things on a Sabbath. 17 But Jesus answered them, My Father works until now and I work. 18 Because of this therefore the Jews sought even more to kill him, because not only did he relax the Sabbath, but also he called God his own Father, making himself equal to God.
19 Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, except what he sees the Father doing. For whatever he may do, the Son also does these things in like manner. 20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does. And he will show him works greater works than these, so that ye may marvel. 21 For as the Father raises up the dead and makes alive, so also the Son makes alive whom he will. 22 For neither does the Father judge any man, but he has given all judgment to the Son, 23 so that all would honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. The man not honoring the Son, does not honor the Father who sent him.
