7. He said that in the Standard New Testament, too.

33 - The Jews answered him, “We are not stoning you for a good work but for blasphemy. You, a man, are making yourself God.”

34 - * Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, “You are gods”’?

35 - If it calls them gods to whom the word of God came, and scripture cannot be set aside,

36 - can you say that the one whom the Father has consecrated* and sent into the world blasphemes because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?

37 - If I do not perform my Father’s works, do not believe me;

38 - but if I perform them, even if you do not believe me, believe the works, so that you may realize (and understand) that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”

- John, Chapter 10
