Life Through the Son
16So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews persecuted
him. 17Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his
work to this very day, and I, too, am working." 18For this reason the
Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but
he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
19Jesus gave them this answer: "I tell you the truth,
the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing,
because whatever the Father does the Son also does. 20For the Father loves the
Son and shows him all he does. Yes, to your amazement he will show him even
greater things than these. 21For just as the Father raises the dead and gives
them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it.
22Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son,
23that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not
honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.
24"I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has
eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.
25I tell you the truth, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will
hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live. 26For as the
Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself.
27And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man.
28"Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their
graves will hear his voice 29and come out—those who have done good will rise to
live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned. 30By myself I can
do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to
please myself but him who sent me."
