22. This made the Jews ask, "Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, 'You can't come where I am going'?"
23. But Jesus said, "You are from below. I am from heaven. You are from this world. I am not from this world.
24. I told you that you would die in your sins. Do you believe that I am the one I claim to be? If you don't, you will certainly die in your sins."
25. "Who are you?" they asked. "Just what I have been claiming all along," Jesus replied.
26. "I have a lot to say that will judge you. But the One who sent me can be trusted. And I tell the world what I have heard from him."
27. They did not understand that Jesus was telling them about his Father.
28. So Jesus said, "You will lift up the Son of Man. Then you will know that I am the one I claim to be. You will also know that I do nothing on my own. I speak just what the Father has taught me.
29. The One who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what pleases him."
30. Even while Jesus was speaking, many people put their faith in him.
