21 Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to those he chooses.

22 For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son,

23 so that all may honor the Son as they honor the Father. The one who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.

25 Truly, truly I tell you, the hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.

26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so also he has granted the Son to have life in himself.

27 And he has given him authority to pass judgment, because he is the Son of Man.

28 Don't be amazed at this, because the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice

29 and will come out—those who have done what is good to the resurrection of life, and those who have practiced what is evil to the resurrection of condemnation.
