the sabbath but He said also that God was His Father,
making Himself equal with God. Then answered Jesus and said unto
them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of Himself

except what He seeth the Father do, for what things soever He doeth,
these also doeth the Son likewise. For the Father loveth the Son and
showeth Him all things that He Himself doeth. And He will show Him
greater works than these that ye may marvel. For as the Father raiseth
up the dead and quickeneth them, even so the Son quickeneth whom
He will. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all
judgment unto the Son. This is so all men should honour the Son, even
as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not
the Father which hath sent Him.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word and believeth
on Him that sent me hath everlasting life and shall not come into
condemnation but pass from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto
you, The hour is coming, and is now, when the dead shall hear the
voice of the Son of God. They that hear shall live. For as the Father
hath life in Himself so hath He given to the Son to have life in Himself.
And He hath given Him authority to execute judgment also because He
is the Son of man.
Marvel not at this because the hour is coming in which all that are in
graves shall hear His voice and shall come forth. They that have done
good go unto the resurrection of life. They that have done evil go unto
the resurrection of damnation. I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I
judge. And my judgment is just because I seek not my own will but the
will of the Father who hath sent me.
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. There is another that
beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth
of me is true. Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth. But
I receive not testimony from man. I say these things that ye might be
saved. He was a burning and a shining light and ye were willing, for a
season, to rejoice in his light. But I have greater witness than that of
John, for the works which the Father hath given me to complete are the
same works that I do. Witness that the Father hath sent me. The Father
Himself which hath sent me hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither
heard His voice at any time nor seen His shape. Ye have not His word
abiding in you because whom He hath sent ye believe not.

Search the scriptures. In them ye think ye have eternal life. They are
that which testify of me. Yet ye will not come to me that ye might have
life. I receive not honour from men but I know you that have not the
love of God in you. I am come in my Father's name and ye receive me
not. If another shall come in his own name him ye will receive. How
can ye believe when ye receive honour one of another and seek not the
honour that cometh only from God? Do not think that I will accuse you
to the Father. There is already one that accuseth you: Moses, in whom
ye trust. For had ye believed Moses ye would have believed me
because he wrote of me. But if ye believe not his writings how shall ye
believe my words?
6. After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea
of Tiberias. And a great multitude followed Him because they saw the
miracles which He did on those who were diseased. Jesus went up into
a mountain and there He sat with His disciples. The passover, a feast of
the Jews, was nigh. When Jesus saw a great company come unto Him,
He saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread that these may eat?
This He said to test Philip because Jesus Himself knew what He would
do. Philip answered Him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not
sufficient for every one to take a little. One of His disciples, Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother, saith unto Him, There is a lad here, who has five
barley loaves and two small fishes. But what are they among so many?
And Jesus said, Have the men sit down on the grass. So the men, about
five thousand, sat down. Then Jesus took the loaves. When He had
given thanks, He distributed them to the disciples,
