John 3:16-17
For God So Loved the World
16“For aGod so loved bthe world, ▼▼Or For this is how God loved the world
dthat he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not eperish but have eternal life. 17For fGod did not send his Son into the world gto condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. John 5:19
The Authority of the Son
19So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, hthe Son ican do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father ▼▼Greek he
does, that the Son does likewise. John 10:18
18 kNo one takes it from me, but lI lay it down mof my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and nI have authority to take it up again. oThis charge I have received from my Father.”John 12:49
49For pI have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father qwho sent me has himself given me ra commandment—what to say and what to speak.John 14:31
31but I do sas the Father has commanded me, tso that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.
