John 10:31

29 My Father who has given them to Me is greater than all. No one can snatch them out of My Father’s hand.

30 I and the Father are one.”

At this, the Jews again picked up stones to stone Him.

32 But Jesus responded, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone Me?”

33 “We are not stoning You for any good work,” said the Jews, “but for blasphemy, because You, who are a man, declare Yourself to be God.”
