Bible verse
I have come in My Father’s name, and you have not received Me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will receive him.
John 5:43 · BSB
The verses around it, from John 5.
39 You pore over the Scriptures because you presume that by them you possess eternal life. These are the very words that testify about Me,
40 yet you refuse to come to Me to have life.
41 I do not accept glory from men,
42 but I know you, that you do not have the love of God within you.
43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you have not received Me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will receive him.
44 How can you believe if you accept glory from one another, yet do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?
45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, in whom you have put your hope.
46 If you had believed Moses, you would believe Me, because he wrote about Me.
47 But since you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”
