25. Most certainly, I tell you, the hour comes, and now is, when the dead will hear the Son of God’s voice; and those who hear will live.
26. For as the Father has life in himself, even so he gave to the Son also to have life in himself.
27. He also gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.
28. Don’t marvel at this, for the hour comes, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,
29. and will come out; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.
30. I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous; because I don’t seek my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me.
31. “If I testify about myself, my witness is not valid.
32. It is another who testifies about me. I know that the testimony which he testifies about me is true.
33. You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
34. But the testimony which I receive is not from man. However, I say these things that you may be saved.
35. He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
