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)

  1. 12:48 Lit has the one judging him

44 Now Jesus cried out and said, (A)The one who believes in Me, does not believe only in Me, but also in Him who sent Me. 45 And (B)the one who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. 46 (C)I have come as Light into the world, so that no one who believes in Me will remain in darkness. 47 If anyone hears My [a]teachings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for (D)I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 (E)The one who rejects Me and does not [b]accept My [c]teachings has one who judges him: (F)the word which I spoke. That will judge him on (G)the last day. 49 (H)For I did not speak [d]on My own, but the Father Himself who sent Me (I)has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that (J)His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak (K)just as the Father has told Me.”
