Jesus Is Equal with God
18 This was why the Jews were pseeking all the more qto kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, rmaking himself sequal with God.
The Authority of the Son
19 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, tthe Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For uwhatever the Father1 does, that the Son does likewise. 20 For vthe Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And wgreater works than these will he show him, so that you may xmarvel. 21 For as the Father yraises the dead and zgives them life, so also the Son agives life to whom he will. 22 For the Father judges no one, but bhas given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may chonor the Son, just as they honor the Father. dWhoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and ebelieves him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has fpassed from death to life.
25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, gan hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hhear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father has life in himself, iso he has granted the Son also to have life jin himself. 27 And he has given him authority to execute judgment, kbecause he is the Son of Man. 28 lDo not marvel at this, for an hour is coming mwhen all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, nthose who have done good to the resurrection of olife, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
