Jesus walks into the temple at Solomon’s Forge.

A crowd gathers.

How long will you keep us in suspense?

If you are the Messiah, say so.

I told you and you don’t believe.

What I do for my Father tells you, who I am, and you don’t believe.

As I said, you aren’t my sheep.

My sheep hear my voice and I know them.

They follow me and I give them life always.

They will not die and no one will take them from me.

My Father who gave them to me is more powerful than all, and no one will take them from Him.

I and the Father are one.

Again, they pick up stones.

I’ve shown you many good things from the Father.

For which of them do you stone me?

Not for any good you’ve done, but for blasphemy.

A man, you make yourself out to be God.

Isn’t it sung in the Psalms, I have said, you are gods.

You can’t deny scripture.

If they to whom God’s word was sent are called gods, can you say to Him whom the Father anointed and sent to the world, you blaspheme, because He says, I am God’s son.

If I don’t do the Father’s work, then don’t believe me.

If I do, then even if you don’t believe me, believe the work.

Then you shall know that the Father is in me and I in Him.

They try to seize Him, but He walks away.
