³⁰ I can do nothing on my own accord. I judge according to what I hear, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will but the will of the one who sent me.”

Jesus’ Greater Testimony

³¹ “If I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is not trustworthy. ³² There is another who testifies about me, and I know^[a] that the testimony he gives about me is true. ³³ You have sent messengers^[b] to John, and he has testified to the truth. ³⁴ I myself do not accept human testimony, but I am saying these things so that you may be saved. ³⁵ That man John^[c] was a lamp that burns and brightly shines, and for a while you were willing to rejoice in his light.
