John 5:27 Context
25Uerily, verily I say vnto you, The houre is comming, & now is, when the dead shall heare the voice of the Sonne of God: and they that heare, shall liue. 26For as the Father hath life in himselfe: so hath he giuen to the Sonne to haue life in himselfe: 27And hath giuen him authority to execute iudgement also, because he is the Sonne of man. 28Marueile not at this: for the houre is comming, in the which all that are in the graues shall heare his voice, 29And shall come foorth, they that haue done good, vnto the resurrection of life, and they that haue done euill, vnto the resurrection of damnation.
