John 5:22-24
The
apostle John writing (God speaking via scripture...The Word), this being a
direct quote of Jesus that Jesus, the Son, is the
final judge of all
humans.
King James Bible:
22 For the Father judgeth no man,
but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they
honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which
hath sent him.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth
my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not
come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. ..."
New International Version Bible:
22Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has
entrusted all judgment to the Son,
23that all may honor the Son just as they honor the
Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.
24"I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him
who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from
death to life. ..."
New American Standard Bible:
22 "For not even the Father
judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son,
23 so that all will honor the Son even as they honor
the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent
Him.
24 "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My
word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into
judgment, but has passed out of death into life. ..."
