The Certainty of God’s Witness

This is He who came (A)by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. (B)And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. For there are three that bear witness [a]in heaven: the Father, (C)the Word, and the Holy Spirit; (D)and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness on earth: (E)the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

If we receive (F)the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; (G)for this is the witness of [b]God which He has testified of His Son. 10 He who believes in the Son of God (H)has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God (I)has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 (J)He who has the Son has [c]life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

23 So when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, (A)to whom he explained and solemnly testified of the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus (B)from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening. 24 And (C)some were persuaded by the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved. 25 So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to [a]our fathers, 26 saying,

(D)‘Go to this people and say:
“Hearing you will hear, and shall not understand;
And seeing you will see, and not perceive;
27 For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
Their ears are hard of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed,
Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.” ’

The Fourfold Witness

31 (A)“If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not [a]true. 32 (B)There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true. 33 You have sent to John, (C)and he has borne witness to the truth. 34 Yet I do not receive testimony from man, but I say these things that you may be saved. 35 He was the burning and (D)shining lamp, and (E)you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. 36 But (F)I have a greater witness than John’s; for (G)the works which the Father has given Me to finish—the very (H)works that I do—bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. 37 And the Father Himself, who sent Me, (I)has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, (J)nor seen His form. 38 But you do not have His word abiding in you, because whom He sent, Him you do not believe. 39 (K)You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and (L)these are they which testify of Me. 40 (M)But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.
