30 Jesus must become more important, while I become less important.
31 God's Son comes from heaven and is above all others. Everyone who comes from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks about earthly things. The one who comes from heaven is above all others.
32 He speaks about what he has seen and heard, and yet no one believes him.
33 But everyone who does believe him has shown that God is truthful.
34 The Son was sent to speak God's message, and he has been given the full power of God's Spirit.
35 The Father loves the Son and has given him everything.
36 Everyone who has faith in the Son has eternal life. But no one who rejects him will ever share in that life, and God will be angry with them for ever.
