John 12:44-50
English Standard Version
Jesus Came to Save the World
44 And Jesus cried out and said, (A)“Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but (B)in him who sent me. 45 And (C)whoever (D)sees me sees him who sent me. 46 (E)I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness. 47 If anyone (F)hears my words and does not keep them, (G)I do not judge him; for (H)I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 (I)The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; (J)the word that I have spoken will judge him (K)on the last day. 49 For (L)I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father (M)who sent me has himself given me (N)a commandment—what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me.”

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)
