John 12:36-47
36 |
While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light. These things Jesus spoke, and departed, and was hidden from them. |
37 |
But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him, |
38 |
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?" |
39 |
Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again: |
40 |
He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, Lest they should see with their eyes, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them." |
41 |
These things Isaiah said when he saw His glory and spoke of Him. |
42 |
Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; |
43 |
for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. |
44 |
Then Jesus cried out and said, "He who believes in Me, believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me. |
45 |
And he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. |
46 |
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. |
47 |
And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. |
