John 8:20

Verse 20 of 59. The 8th of 21 chapters in John, in The Gospels.

16Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.

17It’s also written in your law that the testimony of two people is valid.

18I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.”

19They said therefore to him, “Where is your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”

20Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.

21Jesus said therefore again to them, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can’t come.”

22The Jews therefore said, “Will he kill himself, because he says, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come’?”

23He said to them, “You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.

24I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”
