John 8:24
Compare all
22 So the Jews said, “Will He kill Himself, because He says, ‘Where I go you cannot come’?”
23 And He said to them, a“You are from beneath; I am from above. bYou are of this world; I am not of this world.  
24 aTherefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; bfor if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”  
25 Then they said to Him, “Who are You?” And Jesus said to them, “Just what I ahave been saying to you from the beginning.  
26 I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but aHe who sent Me is true; and bI speak to the world those things which I heard from Him.”  
27 They did not understand that He spoke to them of the Father.
28 Then Jesus said to them, “When you alift up the Son of Man, bthen you will know that I am He, and cthat I do nothing of Myself; but das My Father taught Me, I speak these things.  
29 And aHe who sent Me is with Me. bThe Father has not left Me alone, cfor I always do those things that please Him.”

John 8:23-29

So we have a picture here of the heavenly Man, Jesus Christ, who brought eye-and-ear witness testimony straight from God the Father. Straight from the Source! We could say straight from the horse's mouth, if you will. One can believe the Son of God because His teaching came from the Father. It is that simple. He did not need anybody to establish His credentials. He had them just by coming straight from God and bringing the testimony that God the Father wanted Him to say.
