Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I bear witness about Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

You judge according to the flesh; I am not judging anyone.

But even if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone in it, but I and the Father who sent Me.

I am He who bears witness about Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness about Me."

Then He said again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come."

So the Jews were saying, "Surely He will not kill Himself, since He says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come'?"

And He was saying to them, "You are from below, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.

Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I am saying to the world."

So Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do nothing from Myself, but I speak these things as the Father taught Me.

Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you cannot hear My word.

Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am."

While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

Others were saying, "This is he," still others were saying, "No, but he is like him." He kept saying, "I am the one."

So Jesus said to them again, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

"I am the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

I am the good shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me,

do you say of Him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,' because I said, ‘I am the Son of God'?

and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe; but let us go to him."
