John 5 — Context

21

"For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes.

22

"For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son,

23

so that all will honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

24

"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

25

"Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

26

"For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself;

27

and He gave Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.
