31. If I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is not true.
32. It is another who bears witness concerning me, and I know that the witness which he bears concerning me is true.
33. Ye have sent unto John, and he has borne witness to the truth.
34. But I do not receive witness from man, but I say this that ye might be saved.
35. He was the burning and shining lamp, and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36. But I have the witness that is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given me that I should complete them, the works themselves which I do, bear witness concerning me that the Father has sent me.
37. And the Father who has sent me himself has borne witness concerning me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor have seen his shape,
38. and ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he hath sent, him ye do not believe.
39. Ye search the scriptures, for ye think that in them ye have life eternal, and they it is which bear witness concerning me;
40. and ye will not come to me that ye might have life.
