Mark 11:31-33

The Voice

Leaders (to themselves): If we say, “It must have been from heaven,” then Jesus will have us. He’ll ask, “Then why didn’t you listen to him and follow him?” ³² But if we say, “John’s cleansing was only human,” the people will be up in arms because they think John was a prophet sent by God. ³³ (responding to Jesus) We don’t know what to tell You.

Jesus: All right, then don’t expect Me to tell you where I get the authority to say and do these things.
