44 And Iesus cryed, and sayd, He that beleeueth in me, beleeueth not in me, but in him that sent me.

For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.

And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak. (aiōnios g166)
