John 12:44-50 - Jesus' Final Public Appeal
44 Then Jesus rais'd his voice, and said, he that believeth on me, does not so much believe on me, as on him that sent me. 45 and he that contemplates me, contemplates him that sent me. 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me, might not abide in darkness. 47 but if any man hear my words, and does not believe them, it is not I that condemn him: for I came not to condemn the world, but to save the world. 48 he that rejecteth me, and does not embrace my doctrine, hath one that condemns him: the doctrine that I have delivered, that shall condemn him in the last day. 49 for I have not spoken for my self; but the father who sent me, he commission'd me, what I should teach, and what I should speak. 50 and I know that it is a commission of eternal life: whatever therefore I say, I deliver just as the father directed me.
