Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, {\cf2\super [229]} the Son of the living God.”
Why? Because the things I taught were not from myself. The Father (God) who sent me told me what to say and what to teach.
And I know that eternal life comes from what the Father commands. So the things I say are what the Father told me to say.”
I gave these men the teachings that you gave me. They accepted those teachings. They know that I truly came from you. And they believed that you sent me.
“I tell you the truth. If a person hears what I say and believes in the One (God) who sent me, that person has life forever. That person will not be judged guilty. He has already left death and has entered into life.
Every person that sees the Son and believes in him has life forever. I will raise up that person on the last day. This is what my Father wants.”
It is not the body that gives a person life. It is the spirit that gives life. The things I told you are spirit. And so these things give life.

“Go and stand in the temple {\cf2\super [92]} yard. Tell the people everything about this new life \{in Jesus\}.”
This is the same Moses who was with the gathering of God’s people in the desert. He was with the angel that spoke to him at Mount Sinai, and he was with our ancestors. Moses received commands from God that give life. Moses gave us those commands.
