John 12:44-50
Christian Standard Bible
A Summary of Jesus’s Mission
44 Jesus cried out, “The one who believes in me(A) believes not in me, but in him who sent me. 45 And the one who sees me sees him(B) who sent me. 46 I have come as light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me would not remain in darkness. 47 If anyone hears my words and doesn’t keep(C) them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world(D) but to save the world.(E) 48 The one who rejects me(F) and doesn’t receive my sayings has this as his judge: [a] The word I have spoken will judge him on the last day.(G) 49 For I have not spoken on my own, but the Father(H) himself who sent me has given me a command to say everything I have said. 50 I know that his command is eternal life.(I) So the things that I speak, I speak just as the Father has told me.”(J)

Jesus’ Final Public Appeal
44 But Jesus cried out and said, “The one who believes in me does not believe in me, but in the one who sent me, 45 and the one who sees me sees the one who sent me. 46 I have come as a light into the world, in order that everyone who believes in me will not remain in the darkness. 47 And if anyone hears my words and does not observe them,[a] I will not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 The one who rejects me and does not accept my words has one who judges him; the word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day. 49 For I have not spoken from myself, but the Father himself who sent me has commanded me[b] what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. So the things that I say, just as the Father said to me, thus I say.”
