John 3:13 Context
11Uerely, verely I say vnto thee, We speake that we doe know, and testifie that wee haue seene; and yee receiue not our witnesse. 12If I haue tolde you earthly things, and ye beleeue not: how shall ye beleeue if I tell you of heauenly things? 13And no man hath ascended vp to heauen, but hee that came downe from heauen, euen the Sonne of man which is in heauen. 14¶ And as Moses lifted vp the serpent in the wildernesse: euen so must the Sonne of man be lifted vp: 15That whosoeuer beleeueth in him, should not perish, but haue eternall life.

Wesley's Notes for John 3:13
3:13 For no one - For here you must rely on my single testimony, whereas there you have a cloud of witnesses: Hath gone up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven. Who is in heaven - Therefore he is omnipresent; else he could not be in heaven and on earth at once. This is a plain instance of what is usually termed the communication of properties between the Divine and human nature; whereby what is proper to the Divine nature is spoken concerning the human, and what is proper to the human is, as here, spoken of the Divine.
