42 At the same time that Jesus did those miracles, many of the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees, they would not admit they believed. They were afraid they would be thrown out of the synagogue.
43 They loved praise from people more than praise from God.
44 Then Jesus cried out, "Anyone who believes in me does not believe in me only. He also believes in the One who sent me.
45 When he looks at me, he sees the One who sent me.
46 "I have come into the world to be a light. No one who believes in me will stay in darkness.
47 "I don't judge a person who hears my words but does not obey them. I didn't come to judge the world. I came to save it.
48 But there is a judge for anyone who does not accept me and my words. The very words I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
