30. and I am one with the Father.
31. Once again the Jewish leaders picked up stones in order to kill Jesus.
32. But he said, “I have shown you many good things that my Father sent me to do. Which one are you going to stone me for?”
33. They answered, “We are not stoning you because of any good thing you did. We are stoning you because you did a terrible thing. You are just a man, and here you are claiming to be God!”
34. Jesus replied:In your Scriptures doesn't God say, “You are gods”?
35. You can't argue with the Scriptures, and God spoke to those people and called them gods.
36. So why do you accuse me of a terrible sin for saying that I am the Son of God? After all, it is the Father who prepared me for this work. He is also the one who sent me into the world.
37. If I don't do as my Father does, you should not believe me.
