John 5:38 in Context — John 5

36 Mas eu tenho maior testemunho que [o] de João; porque as obras que o Pai me deu que cumprisse, as mesmas obras que eu faço, testemunham de mim que o Pai me enviou.

37 E o Pai que me enviou, ele mesmo testemunhou de mim. Nunca ouvistes sua voz, nem vistes sua aparência.

38 E não tendes sua palavra permanecendo em vós; porque ao que ele enviou, a esse vós não credes.

39 Investigai as Escrituras; porque vós pensais que nelas tendes a vida eterna, e elas são as que de mim testemunham.

40 E não quereis vir a mim, para que tenhais vida.
