  1.  I Judge No One--v15
  2.  I Am Going Away--v21-24
  3.  I Speak God's Word--v26
      Jesus declared Himself as God's ultimate messenger, sharing God's truth to the world!

      A.  His Truth Came From The Father--v28

           2.  His Truth is Eternal--John 17:8, John 17:5, Mark 13:31. Revelation 19:13

     B.  His Truth Has Liberating Power--v32, note v31

       Jesus' words can liberate and set you free from sin's bondage
       Ultimately, Jesus was killed for speaking the truth:  Will you stand for the truth today?
       Will you stake a stance for Him and His Word?
