In context
Before · John 12:47–48
47If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
49For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
After · John 12:50
50I know that his commandment is eternal life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak.”
