John 7:16-18 Jesus made answer, My doctrine is not mine, but his who sent me.

Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Jesus made answer, My doctrine is not mine, but his who sent me. ¹⁷ If any one will do his will, he shall discern whether my doctrine proceeds from God, or from myself. ¹⁸ Whosoever teaches what proceeds from himself, seeks to promote his own glory: whosoever seeks to promote the glory of him who sent him, deserves credit, and is a stranger to deceit.
