"I can of my own self do nothing. As I listen, I judge, and my own judgment is just, because I am not seeking my own will, but the will of Him who sent me. "If I bear testimony concerning myself, my testimony is not valid. "Another bears testimony to me, and I know that the testimony which he bears concerning me is valid. "You yourselves sent to John, and he has been and is a witness to the truth. "(Though for myself I accept no witness from man; I only mention that you may be saved.) "That man was the Lamp-burning and shining??nd you were willing for a time rejoice in his light. "But I have testimony greater than that of John; for the work which the Father has given me to bring to completion??he work which I am doing??ears testimony concerning me, that the Father has sent me. "And the Father who sent me has himself borne testimony concerning me. None of you has heard his at any time or seen him, nor had his word dwelling within you, because you do not believe him whom he sent.
Then said the Pharisees to him. "You are bearing testimony to yourself; your testimony is not true." In reply Jesus said to them.

"I am giving them eternal life, and they shall never perish, nor shall any one snatch them out of my hand. "My Father who has given them to me is stronger than all, and no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. "I and my Father are one." The Jews again took stones with which to stone him. Jesus said to them. "I have shown you many good deeds from my Father. For which of these are you going to stone me?" "We are not going to stone you for a good deed," answered the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, are making yourself God." "Is it written in your law," replied Jesus, "I said, You are gods? "If those to whom the word of God came are called gods (and the Scripture cannot be annulled), do you mean to tell me, whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'? "If I am not doing the deeds of my Father, do not believe me. "But if I am doing them, then though you believe not me, believe the deeds, in order that you may come to know and keep on clearly understanding that the Father is in me and I am in the Father."

"The hour is come that the Son of man should be glorified. In solemn truth I tell you that except a kernel of wheat fall into the ground and die, it remains a single kernel; but if it die it bears a great crop. He who loves his life loses it; and he who regards not his life in this world shall keep it for eternal life. read more.
If any one is ready to serve me, let him follow me; and where I am there shall my servant be also. If any man is ready to serve me, him will my Father honor. Now is my soul disquieted. What shall I say? 'Father, save me from this hour'? Nay, for this very cause I am come to this hour. Father, glorify thy name!"
