John 8:39 in Context — John 8
37 Bem sei que sois descendência de Abraão; porém procurais matar-me, porque minha palavra não encontra lugar em vós.
38 Eu, o que vi junto a meu Pai, [isso] falo; e vós, o que também vistes junto a vosso pai [isso] fazeis.
39 Responderam, e lhe disseram: Nosso pai é Abraão. Disse-lhes Jesus: Se fôsseis filhos de Abraão, faríeis as obras de Abraão.
40 Porém agora procurais matar a mim, o homem que tenho vos falado a verdade que de Deus tenho ouvido; Abraão não fez isto.
41 Vós fazeis as obras de vosso pai.Disseram-lhe pois: Nós não somos nascidos de pecado sexual; nós temos um Pai: Deus.
