John 8:45-54 Good News Bible (GNB)

45. But I tell the truth, and that is why you do not believe me.

46. Which one of you can prove that I am guilty of sin? If I tell the truth, then why do you not believe me?

47. He who comes from God listens to God's words. You, however, are not from God, and that is why you will not listen.”

48. They asked Jesus, “Were we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon in you?”

49. “I have no demon,” Jesus answered. “I honour my Father, but you dishonour me.

50. I am not seeking honour for myself. But there is one who is seeking it and who judges in my favour.

51. I am telling you the truth: whoever obeys my teaching will never die.”

52. They said to him, “Now we are certain that you have a demon! Abraham died, and the prophets died, yet you say that whoever obeys your teaching will never die.

53. Our father Abraham died; you do not claim to be greater than Abraham, do you? And the prophets also died. Who do you think you are?”

54. Jesus answered, “If I were to honour myself, that honour would be worth nothing. The one who honours me is my Father — the very one you say is your God.
