37 I know you are descendants of Abraham, but you are trying to kill Me because My word is not welcome among you.
38 I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; therefore, you do what you have heard from your father.”
39 “Our father is Abraham! ” they replied.“If you were Abraham’s children,” Jesus told them, “you would do what Abraham did.
40 But now you are trying to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this!
41 You’re doing what your father does.” “We weren’t born of sexual immorality,” they said. “We have one Father — God.”
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn’t come on My own, but He sent Me.
43 Why don’t you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to My word.
