36But the witness which I have is greater than [that of] John; for the works which the Father hath given me to accomplish, the very works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.

38And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he sent, him ye believe not.

40and ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.

41I receive not glory from men.

42But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in yourselves.
