John 8:21-23

New International Reader's Version

Challenge to Who Jesus Claims to Be

²¹ Once more Jesus said to them, “I am going away. You will look for me, and you will die in your sin. You can’t come where I am going.”

²² This made the Jews ask, “Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, ‘You can’t come where I am going’?”

²³ But Jesus said, “You are from below. I am from heaven. You are from this world. I am not from this world.
