John 5:41

Read in context

John 5:39–43 · Berean Standard Bible

39 You pore over the Scriptures because you presume that by them you possess eternal life. These are the very words that testify about Me,

40 yet you refuse to come to Me to have life.

41 I do not accept glory from men,

42 but I know you, that you do not have the love of God within you.

43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you have not received Me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will receive him.
