Jesus answered the Jewish leaders, saying: “Truly, truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by Himself; He can only do what He sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does in the same way. For the Father loves the Son and shows Him all that He Himself is doing. And He will show Him even greater works than these, so that you will be amazed. For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes. Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
“Truly, truly I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come into judgment but has passed from death to life. Truly, truly I tell you, a time is coming—and has now come—when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son also to have life in Himself. And He has given Him authority to judge, because He is the Son of Man. Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice and come out—those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.”
Testimony of Jesus
“I can do nothing by Myself. I judge only as I hear, and My judgment is just, because I seek not My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.”
