John 8:38-42
New King James Version
38 (A)I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have [a]seen with your father.”
39 They answered and said to Him, (B)“Abraham is our father.”
Jesus said to them, (C)“If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham. 40 (D)But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth (E)which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this. 41 You do the deeds of your father.”
Then they said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; (F)we have one Father—God.”
42 Jesus said to them, (G)“If God were your Father, you would love Me, for (H)I proceeded forth and came from God; (I)nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.

John 8:38-42
Amplified Bible
38 I tell the things that I have seen at My Father’s side [in His very presence]; so you also do the things that you heard from your father.”
39 They answered, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you are [truly] Abraham’s children, then do the works of Abraham and follow his example. 40 But as it is, you want to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. This is not the way Abraham acted. 41 You are doing the works of your [own] father.” They said to Him, “We are not illegitimate children; we have one [spiritual] Father: God.” 42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father [but He is not], you would love and recognize Me, for I came from God [out of His very presence] and have arrived here. For I have not even come on My own initiative [as self-appointed], but He [is the One who] sent Me.
