18 For this reason the Jewish leaders wanted even more to kill him—not only because he was doing away with the Sabbath but also because he called God his own Father, thereby making himself equal with God.
19 Jesus responded to the Jewish leaders, “I assure you that the Son can’t do anything by himself except what he sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise.
20 The Father loves the Son and shows him everything that he does. He will show him greater works than these so that you will marvel.
21 As the Father raises the dead and gives life, so too does the Son give life to whomever he wishes.
22 The Father doesn’t judge anyone, but he has given all judgment to the Son
23 so that everyone will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever doesn’t honor the Son doesn’t honor the Father who sent him.
24 “I assure you that whoever hears my word and believes in the one who sent me has eternal life and won’t come under judgment but has passed from death into life.
