John 5:30 ESV
I can do nothing on my own. As I hear. I judge and my judgement is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.
Read John 5:31-38 NLT
If I were to testify on my own behalf, my testimony would not be valid. But someone else is also testifying about me, and I assure you that everything he says about me is true. Of course I have no need of human witnesses, but I say these things so you might be saved. John was like a burning and shining lamp and you were excited for a while about his message. 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. And the Father who sent me has testified about me himself. You have never heard his voice or seen him face to face, and you do not have his message within your hearts, because you do not believe me-the one sent to you.
