John 8:45

So because I tell you the truth, you don't believe me!

Free Bible Version

In The King James Version

And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

In Context

44Your father is the devil, and you love to follow your father's evil desires. He was a murderer from the beginning. He never stood for the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies he reveals his true character, for he's a liar and the father of lies.

46Can any one of you prove that I'm guilty of sin? If I'm telling you the truth, why don't you believe me?
