John 519-21

• Jesus gave them this answer I tell you the
  truth, the Son can do nothing by himself he can
  do only what he sees his Father doing, because
  whatever the Father does the Son also does. For
  the Father loves the Son and shows him all he
  does. Yes, to your amazement he will show him
  even greater things than these. For just as the
  Father raises the dead and gives them life, even
  so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to
  give it.

  body.
