John 3:31-34 Part 2 of 2

The one who comes from above is above all; the one who is from the earth belongs to the earth. The one who comes from heaven is above all. He testifies to what he has seen and heard, but no one accepts his testimony. Whoever has accepted it has certified that God is truthful. For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit with out limit.  

For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God 
John 3:17  For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

John 17:3  "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent."

for God gives the Spirit without limit

Acts 10:37-38  "You know what has happened throughout the province of Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached--how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him."
