In context
44 Then Jesus said with a loud voice, He who has faith in me, has faith not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 And he who sees me, sees him who sent me.
46 I have come as a light into the world, so that no one who has faith in me will go on living in the dark.
47 And if any man gives ear to my words and does not keep them, I am not his judge: I did not come to be judge of the world but to give salvation to the world.
48 He who puts me on one side and does not take my words to heart, is not without a judge: the word which I have said will be his judge on the last day.
49 For I have not said it on my authority, but the Father who sent me gave me orders what to say and how to say it.
50 And I have knowledge that his order is eternal life: so that the things which I say, I say them even as the Father says them to me.
