LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON

JOHN 8:38-45(NASB)

"I[Jesus] speak the things which I have seen with My Father; likewise, you also do the things which you have heard from your father.
They[the Jews] answered and said to Him, 'Abraham is our father.'
Jesus said to them, 'If you are Abraham's children, do the deeds of Abraham. But as it is, you are seeking to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God; Abraham did not do this. You are doing the deeds of your father.'

They said to Him, 'We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.'

Jesus said to them, 'If God were your Father, you would love Me; for I proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not even come on My own initiative, but He sent Me.Why do you not understand what I am saying? It is because you cannot hear My word. You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.'"
