'Testimony' in the Bible

He came as a witness, in order that he might give testimony concerning the Light--so that all might believe through him.

He was not the Light, but he existed that he might give testimony concerning the Light.

John gave testimony concerning Him and cried aloud, saying, "This is He of whom I said, 'He who is coming after me has been put before me,' for He was before me."

This also is John's testimony, when the Jews sent to him a deputation of Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him who he was.

John also gave testimony by stating: "I have seen the Spirit coming down like a dove out of Heaven; and it remained upon Him.

and did not need any one's testimony concerning a man, for He of Himself knew what was in the man.

In most solemn truth I tell you that we speak what we know, and give testimony of that of which we were eye-witnesses, and yet you all reject our testimony.

they came to John and reported to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you on the other side of the Jordan and to whom you bore testimony is now baptizing, and great numbers of people are resorting to him."

What He has seen and heard, to that He bears witness; but His testimony no one receives.

Any man who has received His testimony has solemnly declared that God is true.

"If I give testimony concerning myself, my testimony cannot be accepted.

There is Another who gives testimony concerning me, and I know that the testimony is true which He offers concerning me.

But the testimony on my behalf which I accept is not from man; though I say all this in order that you may be saved.

"But the testimony which I have is weightier than that of John; for the work the Father has assigned to me for me to bring it to completion--the very work which I am doing--affords testimony concerning me that the Father has sent me.

And the Father who sent me, *He* has given testimony concerning me. None of you have ever either heard His voice or seen what He is like.

"You search the Scriptures, because you suppose that in them you will find the Life of the Ages; and it is those Scriptures that yield testimony concerning me;

It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate, because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.

"You are giving testimony about yourself," said the Pharisees; "your testimony is not true."

"Even if I am giving testimony about myself," replied Jesus, "my testimony is true; for I know where I came from and where I am going, but you know neither of these two things.

In your own Law, too, it is written that the testimony of two men is true.

I am one giving testimony about myself, and the Father who sent me gives testimony about me."

"I have told you," answered Jesus, "and you do not believe. The deeds that I do in my Father's name--they give testimony about me.

"So then *you* are a king!" rejoined Pilate. "Yes," said Jesus, "you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world--to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth listens to my voice."

This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true. He knows that he is telling the truth--in order that you also may believe.

That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters, and has written this history; and we know that his testimony is true.
