18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This ^dcharge I have received from my Father.”

49 For I have not ⁱspoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment—^jwhat to say and what to speak.

10 ^eIf you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s ^fcommandments and abide in his love.
