Those who reject me and do not accept my message have one who will judge them. The words I have spoken will be their judge on the last day!

Do not think, however, that I am the one who will accuse you to my Father. Moses, in whom you have put your hope, is the very one who will accuse you.

You make judgments in a purely human way; I pass judgment on no one.

But if I were to do so, my judgment would be true, because I am not alone in this; the Father who sent me is with me.

I have much to say about you, much to condemn you for. The one who sent me, however, is truthful, and I tell the world only what I have heard from him."

This is a true saying, to be completely accepted and believed: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. I am the worst of them,

but God was merciful to me in order that Christ Jesus might show his full patience in dealing with me, the worst of sinners, as an example for all those who would later believe in him and receive eternal life.

Look on our Lord's patience as the opportunity he is giving you to be saved, just as our dear friend Paul wrote to you, using the wisdom that God gave him.

And we have seen and tell others that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.
