44 E exclamou Jesus, e disse: Quem crê em mim, não crê [somente] em mim, mas [também] naquele que me enviou.

45 E quem vê a mim, vê a aquele que me enviou.

46 Eu sou a luz que vim ao mundo, para que todo aquele que crê em mim, não permaneça em trevas.

47 E se alguém ouvir minhas palavras, e não crer, eu não o julgo; porque não vim para julgar o mundo, mas sim para salvar o mundo.

48 Quem me rejeitar e não receber minhas palavras, já tem quem o julgue: a palavra que eu tenho falado, essa o julgará no último dia.
