John 5:38-40

Expanded Bible

³⁸ His ·teaching [word; message] does not ·live [remain; abide] in you, because you don’t believe in the One the Father sent. ³⁹ You ·carefully study [search; examine] the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life. They do in fact ·tell [testify; witness] ·about me [concerning me; on my behalf], ⁴⁰ but you ·refuse [do not want] to come to me to have that life.
