22 Furthermore, the Father does not judge[a] anyone, but has assigned[b] all judgment to the Son, 23 so that all people[c] will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

24 “I tell you the solemn truth,[d] the one who hears[e] my message[f] and believes the one who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned,[g] but has crossed over from death to life.

22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

23 That 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.

24 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 is passed from death unto life.
