IF I HONOUR MYSELF MY HONOUR IS NOTHING
JOHN 8:48-55
THEN ANSWERED THE JEWS,
AND SAID UNTO HIM,
SAY WE NOT WELL
THAT THOU ART A SAMARITAN,
AND HAS A DEVIL?
JESUS ANSWERED,
I HAVE NOT A DEVIL;
BUT I HONOUR MY FATHER,
AND
YE DO DISHONOUR ME.
AND
I SEEK NOT MINE OWN GLORY:
THERE IS ONE THAT
SEEKETH AND JUDGETH.
VERILY, VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU,
IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYING
HE SHALL NEVER SEE DEATH.
THEN SAID THE JEWS UNTO HIM,
NOW
WE KNOW
THAT THOU HAS A DEVIL.
ABRAHAM IS DEAD,
AND
THE PROPHETS;
AND
THOU SAYEST,
IF A MAN KEEP MY SAYING,
HE SHALL NEVER
TASTE OF DEATH.
ART THOU GREATER
THAN OUR FATHER ABRAHAM,
WHICH IS DEAD?
AND
THE PROPHETS ARE DEAD:
WHOM MAKEST THOU THYSELF?
JESUS ANSWERED,
IF I HONOUR MYSELF,
MY HONOUR IS NOTHING:
IT IS MY FATHER
THAT HONOURETH ME;
OF WHOM YE SAY,
THAT HE IS YOUR GOD:
YET
YE HAVE NOT KNOWN HIM;
BUT
I KNOW HIM:
AND
IF I SHOULD SAY,
I KNOW HIM NOT,
I SHALL BE A LIAR
LIKE UNTO YOU:
BUT I KNOW HIM,
AND
KEEP HIS SAYING.
LOVE
