34 Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness also unto the truth.
35 And he received not his testimony of man, but of God, and ye yourselves say that he is a prophet, therefore ye ought to receive his testimony. These things I say that ye might be saved.
36 He was a burning and a shining light; and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
37 But I have a greater witness than the testimony of John; for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
38 And the Father himself who sent me, hath borne witness of me. And verily I testify unto you, that ye have never heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape;
39 For ye have not his word abiding in you; and him whom he hath sent, ye believe not.
40 Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify of me.
41 And ye will not come to me that ye might have life, lest ye should honor me.
42 I receive not honor from men.
43 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
44 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not; if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
