22 For the Father judges no one, but (A)has committed all judgment to the Son, 23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. (B)He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

Life and Judgment Are Through the Son

24 “Most assuredly, I say to you, (C)he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, (D)but has passed from death into life. 25 Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when (E)the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live. 26 For (F)as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have (G)life in Himself, 27 and (H)has given Him authority to execute judgment also, (I)because He is the Son of Man. 28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will (J)hear His voice 29 (K)and come forth—(L)those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation. 30 (M)I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because (N)I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.

  1. Isaiah 32:2 shelter

(A)The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.

And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes,
Nor decide by the hearing of His ears;
But (B)with righteousness He shall judge the poor,
And decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
He shall (C)strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins,
And faithfulness the belt of His waist.
