He has not been educated.’16Jesus answered them: ‘My teaching is not from myself: it comes from the one who sent me;17anyone who is prepared to do his will, will know whether my teaching is from God or whether I speak on my own account.18When someone speaks on his own account, he is seeking honour for himself; but when he is seeking the honour of the person who sent him, then he is true and altogether without dishonesty.19Did not Moses give you the Law?
