John 10:31-39 - Renewed Efforts To Stone Jesus

³¹ The Jews again caught up stones to stone him.

³² Jesus replied, "I have let you see many a good deed of God; for which of them do you mean to stone me?"

³³ The Jews retorted, "We mean to stone you, not for a good deed, but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, make yourself God."

³⁴ Jesus answered, "Is it not written in your Law, 'I said, you are gods'? ³⁵ If the Law said they were gods, to whom the word of God came ??and scripture cannot be broken ??36 do you mean to tell me, whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am God's Son'? ³⁷ If I am not doing the deeds of my Father, do not believe me; ³⁸ but if I am, then believe the deeds, though you will not believe me ??that you may learn and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father." ³⁹ Once more they tried to arrest him, but he escaped their hands
