Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

John 8
⁵³ Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Whom do You make Yourself out to be?"
⁵⁴ Jesus answered, "If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your God.
⁵⁵ Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I say, ’I do not know Him,’ I shall be a liar like you; but I do know Him and keep His word.
⁵⁶ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."
⁵⁷ Then the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?"
⁵⁸ Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM."
⁵⁹ Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
John 9
¹ Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth.
² And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
³ Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him.
⁴ I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; the night is coming when no one can work.
