Jesus cries out in testimony to Himself. He is responding to the unbelief of the people in the face of his great signs and miracles. Jesus is not just here on His own authority or mission. We see this in His statement. Those who believe in Jesus believe in the one who sent Him. In vs. 45, the idea of seeing is connected to the seeing of the miracles and signs. Jesus has not come by Himself or using His own power for His own glory. He has come to glorify His Father.
Do you see Jesus as more than just another great man? Do you see Him as more than just a great teacher? He is God and He was sent by God. He came to bring glory to God by bringing salvation to man.
Our faith is not just in a man. It is not just in some guy who healed and fed people. Our faith is in the all powerful God of creation and redemption. It is in His Son whom He sent to take on human nature and save us. Know your God!
Consider: 1 Peter 1:20-21
