Page "John 5" Paragraph 6

Jesus then talks of John's testimony about him.

He also says that people study the scriptures hoping for eternal life, but that the scriptures speak of him, and people still refuse to come to him for life.

People accept people who preach in their own name but not in one who comes in the name of the Father.

" How can you believe if you accept praise from one another, yet make no effort to obtain the praise that comes from the only God?

" He then speaks of Moses as the accuser of humanity.

" But do not think I will accuse you before the Father.

Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set.

If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.

But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?
