John 3:31-36

John 3:31-36

[31] He that cometh  from above  above  all:  of  the earth  earthly,  and  speaketh  of  the earth:  he that cometh  from  heaven  above  all.  [32] And  what  he hath seen  and  heard,  he testifieth;  and  no man  receiveth  his  testimony.  [33] He that hath received  his  testimony  hath set to his seal  that  God  true.  [34] For  he whom  God  hath sent  speaketh  the words  of God:  for  God  giveth  not  the Spirit  by  measure  [35] The Father  loveth  the Son,  and  hath given  all things  into  his  hand.  [36] He that believeth  on  the Son  hath  everlasting  life:  and  he that believeth not  the Son  not  life;  but  the wrath  of God  abideth  on  him.
