John 5:31-36

In John 5:36, if we lead right up to this, Jesus is going to show you something about what the witness is that He Himself will put stock in—as to whether or not what He is doing is the work of the Messiah.

He is saying, "What I am doing proves that I am the Messiah." What did He just do? He just healed somebody. What did He just do? He just redeemed somebody from bondage to an illness. He just saved somebody from the bondage of uselessness. He just gave to somebody the liberty of having great hope. He just delivered somebody out of their discouragement. That kind of work is the work of salvation.
