49. Jesus answered, “I have no demon in me. I give honor to my Father, but you give no honor to me.
50. I am not trying to get honor for myself. There is one who wants this honor for me. He is the judge.
51. I promise you, whoever continues to obey my teaching will never die.”
52. The Jews said to Jesus, “Now we know that you have a demon in you! Even Abraham and the prophets died. But you say, ‘Whoever obeys my teaching will never die.’
53. Do you think you are greater than our father Abraham? He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?”
54. Jesus answered, “If I give honor to myself, that honor is worth nothing. The one who gives me honor is my Father. And you say that he is your God.
