Lesson 36: John 8:13-20
John 8:13-20
The Pharisees therefore
said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true. Jesus
answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my
record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell
whence I come, and whither I go. Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. And
yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father
that sent me. It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is
true. I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth
witness of me.
Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father?
Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should
have known my Father also. These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught
in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
