(Who accepit his testimony signavit, because God verax it_is. )

3.33 Signavit quia Deus. Hoc est, signum posuit in corde suo quasi speciale aliquid, scilicet hunc esse verum Deum, qui missus est ad salutem hominum. Verax est. Quem enim misit Deus. Omnis homo ex se mendax; non enim vera dicere potest, nisi illuminatus a Deo. Quem enim misit Deus Pater, verba Dei loquitur, quod est? Quem misit Deus, Deus est: ideo verba Dei loquitur, ergo verba Filii de se testimonium perhibentis quod Deus sit, verba Dei sunt. Verba Dei loquitur. In hoc se distinguit a Christo, sed quia missus et verba Dei loquitur, apertius addit: Non enim ad mensuram dat Deus spiritum. Pater diligit Filium et omnia dedit in manu ejus. Hominibus dat ad mensuram, filio non dat ad mensuram, sed sicut totum ex seipso toto genuit Filium suum, ita incarnato Filio suo totum spiritum suum dedit, non particulatim, non per subdivisiones, sed generaliter et universaliter, et non ob aliud dat nisi quia Pater diligit Filium.

Everyone human from se mendax; not/no because vera dicere potest, nisi illuminatus from Deo. Quem because he_sent God Pater, words of_God loquitur, that est? Quem he_sent God, God it_is: ideo words of_God loquitur, therefore words Children about se testimony perhibentis that God let_it_be, words of_God are. Verba of_God loquitur. In this se distinguit from Christo, but because missus and words of_God loquitur, apertius addit: Non because to mensuram dat God spiritum. Pater diligit Son and everything he_gave in by_hand his. Hominibus dat to mensuram, filio not/no dat to mensuram, but like totum from seipso toto genuit Son his_own, ita incarnato Filio his_own totum spiritum his_own he_gave, not/no particulatim, not/no through subdivisiones, but generaliter and universaliter, and not/no ob something_else dat nisi because Pater diligit Son.
