John 8:54-56

The Voice

Jesus: ⁵⁴ If I were trying to make Myself somebody important, it would be a waste of time. That kind of fame is worth nothing. It is the Father who is behind Me, urging Me on, giving Me praise. You say, “He is our God,” ⁵⁵ but you are not in relationship with Him. I know Him intimately; even if I said anything other than the truth, I would be a liar, like you. I know Him, and I do as He says. ⁵⁶ Your father Abraham anticipated the time when I would come, and he celebrated My coming.
