John 5:22-27

Twentieth_Century(i) 22 The Father himself does not judge any man, but has 'entrusted the work of judging entirely to his Son,' 23 So that all men may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son fails to honor the Father who sent him. 24 In truth I tell you that he who listens to my Message and believes him who sent me, has Immortal Life, and does not come under condemnation, but has already passed out of Death into Life. 25 In truth I tell you that a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the Dead will listen to the voice of the Son of God, and when those who listen will live. 26 For, just as the Father has inherent Life within him, so also he has granted to the Son to have inherent Life within him; 27 And, because he is Son of Man, he has also given him authority to act as judge.
