Jesus continues to teach in the temple 12Jesus spoke to the people again, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me won’t walk in darkness but will have the light of life.” 13Then the Pharisees said to him, “Because you are testifying about yourself, your testimony isn’t valid.” 14Jesus replied, “Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, since I know where I came from and where I’m going. You don’t know where I come from or where I’m going. 15You judge according to human standards, but I judge no one. 16Even if I do judge, my judgment is truthful, because I’m not alone. My judgments come from me and from the Father who sent me. 17In your Law it is written that the witness of two people is true. 18I am one witness concerning myself, and the Father who sent me is the other.” 19They asked him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You don’t know me and you don’t know my Father. If you knew me, you would also know my Father.” 20He spoke these words while he was teaching in the temple area known as the treasury. No one arrested him, because his time hadn’t yet come. 21Jesus continued, “I’m going away. You will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I’m going, you can’t come.” 22The Jewish leaders said, “He isn’t going to kill himself, is he? Is that why he said, ‘Where I’m going, you can’t come’?” 23He said to them, “You are from below; I’m from above. You are from this world; I’m not from this world. 24This is why I told you that you would die in your sins. If you don’t believe that I Am, you will die in your sins.” 25“Who are you?” they asked. Jesus replied, “I’m exactly who I have claimed to be from the beginning. 26I have many things to say in judgment concerning you. The one who sent me is true, and what I have heard from him I tell the world.” 27They didn’t know he was speaking about his Father. 28So Jesus said to them, “When the Human One is lifted up, then you will know that I Am. Then you will know that I do nothing on my own, but I say just what the Father has taught me. 29He who sent me is with me. He doesn’t leave me by myself, because I always do what makes him happy.” 30While Jesus was saying these things, many people came to believe in him. Matthew 5:9 “Happy are people who make peace, because they will be called God’s children.https://temtube.com/
