Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise."
( John 5:19)
"For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me."
( John 6:38)
So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me."
( John 7:16)
So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing on my own authority but speak thus as the Father taught me. And he who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what is pleasing to Him."
( John 8:28-29)
"For I have not spoken on my own authority; the Father who sent me has himself given me commandment what to say and what to speak. And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has bidden me."
( John 12:49-50)
