They answered him,“Abraham is our father!” Jesus replied,“If you are Abraham’s children, you would be doing the deeds of Abraham.
But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth I heard from God. Abraham did not do this!
You people are doing the deeds of your father.”Then they said to Jesus,“We were not born as a result of immorality! We have only one Father, God himself.”

Why don’t you understand what I am saying? It is because you cannot accept my teaching.
You people are from your father the devil, and you want to do what your father desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.
But because I am telling you the truth, you do not believe me.
