29. and they will rise again. Those who have done good will rise to experience eternal life, and those who have continued in evil will rise to experience judgment.
30. I can do nothing on my own. I judge as God tells me. Therefore, my judgment is just, because I carry out the will of the one who sent me, not my own will.
31. “If I were to testify on my own behalf, my testimony would not be valid.
32. But someone else is also testifying about me, and I assure you that everything he says about me is true.
33. In fact, you sent investigators to listen to John the Baptist, and his testimony about me was true.
34. Of course, I have no need of human witnesses, but I say these things so you might be saved.
35. John was like a burning and shining lamp, and you were excited for a while about his message.
36. But I have a greater witness than John—my teachings and my miracles. The Father gave me these works to accomplish, and they prove that he sent me.
37. And the Father who sent me has testified about me himself. You have never heard his voice or seen him face to face,
38. and you do not have his message in your hearts, because you do not believe me—the one he sent to you.
