22 So the Jews began to ask, “Will He kill Himself, since He says, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come’?”
23 Then He told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 That is why I told you that you would die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”
