21 Once more Jesus spoke to them. "I am going away," he said. "You will look for me, and you will die in your sin. You can't come where I am going."
22 This made the Jews ask, "Will he kill himself? Is that why he says, 'You can't come where I am going'?"
23 But Jesus said, "You are from below. I am from heaven. You are from this world. I am not from this world.
24 I told you that you would die in your sins. Do you believe that I am the one I claim to be? If you don't, you will certainly die in your sins."
25 "Who are you?" they asked. "Just what I have been claiming all along," Jesus replied.
26 "I have a lot to say that will judge you. But the One who sent me can be trusted. And I tell the world what I have heard from him."
27 They did not understand that Jesus was telling them about his Father.
