John 12:49
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it.
In context
47 As for anyone who hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 There is a judge for the one who rejects Me and does not receive My words: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
49 I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it.
50 And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So I speak exactly what the Father has told Me to say.”
