(Verse John 3:16), Let it not be passed by, that while the new birth or regeneration is declared to be essential to a part in the kingdom of God, the Lord in urging this intimates that He had not gone beyond the earthly things of that kingdom.

Believe also in me." "Don't let your heart be troubled" (v. 1a). But see the blessed fruit of receiving it. I do not mean by this all individuals, but creation; for nothing can be more certain, than that those who do not receive the Son of God are so much the worse for having heard the gospel. The addition of "unto him" detracts, to my mind, from the exceeding preciousness of what seems to be, at least, left open. THE RESPONSE OF THE MOB (John 6:14-15) 6:14-15 So when the men had seen the sign which he had done, they said: "Truly, this is the prophet who is to come into the world." So Jesus, aware that they were going to come and seize him to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain alone. But He, being God, was manifesting and, on the contrary, maintaining the divine glory here below. The Father did not judge, but committed all judgment into the hands of the Son, because He is the Son of man. John 7:24) They reason and are in utter uncertainty.

For evidently it is the theme of worship in its Christian fulness, the fruit of the manifestation of God, and of the Father known in grace. Man, under law, proved powerless; and the greater the need, the less the ability to avail himself of such merciful intervention as God still, from time to time, kept up throughout the legal system. Did they charge Jesus with self-exaltation? 4 Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. Jesus didnt want to be king in the way the Israelites wanted him to, but that didnt stop theIsraelites. From the very first, man, being a sinner, was wholly lost. None but a divine being could thus deal with the world. The usual listing of signs includes: 1. I even want him to make the people around me behave in the way I feel they should behave. In a certain sense, the principle of John 4:1-54 was made true in the woman of Samaria, and in others who received Christ then. 2. Please if you have time visit my blog site. (VerseJohn 4:1; John 4:1) It was strange to her that a Jew should thus humble himself: what would it have been, had she seen in Him Jesus the Son of God? Deut 18:18-19 (NIV). Hence the Son, being in this ineffable nearness of love, has declared not God only, but the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." The Father and the Son were at work. We are not sure why Jesus chose Philip. Jesus, therefore, answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. No one comes to the Father except through me. They spoke of the world; the world might hear them. But if the Spirit speaks of the Son of God, the law dwindles at once into the smallest possible proportions: everything yields to the honour the Father puts oil the Son. Deut 18:15 (NIV), 18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. It is now eternal reality, and the name of Jesus Christ is that which puts all things to a final test. For He who spoke was divine. They were expecting a king with outward pomp and splendor. John 7:38; John 7:38) And then we have the comment of the Holy Ghost: "(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified)" There is, first, the thirsty soul coming to Jesus and drinking; then there is the power of the Spirit flowing forth from the inner man of the believer in refreshment to others. There He supposes His full rejection and death. The sacrificial death of Him who is God goes far beyond the thought of Israel. In short, the riches of God's grace are here according to the glory of the Son, and in the power of the Holy Ghost. At first that seems like an odd name for a prophet, but when you consider the weighty responsibilities God's chosen servants carry, the name makes sense. This is all perfectly true, of course; and we have it elsewhere. The Lord and the disciples are next seen in the country district, not far, it would seem, from John, who was baptizing as they were. Here there could not be more, and He would not give less: even "grace upon grace." But it is important we should know how He entered the world. The account of, "Jesus Walking on Water" isn't recorded at all in Luke. All is in the character of the Son of man. (Verses John 7:40-53). John was not yet cast into prison. It is not merely a Messiah, who comes and offers Himself, as we find in other gospels, with most painstaking diligence, and presented to their responsibility; but here from the outset the question is viewed as closed. (Verses John 1:41-44), On the morrow Jesus begins, directly and indirectly, to call others to follow Himself. 14 Then those men, when they had seen the sign that Jesus did, said, "This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world." Having seen this miraculous sign (smeion), the people recalled Moses' prediction that a Prophet like him would arise ( Deut. Meanwhile there was a manifestation of goodness, active in love in the midst of evil, and toward such; active in the making known God and man, and every moral relation, and what He is toward man, through and in the Word made flesh. But what we learn is, that our Lord (viewed as having entered into heaven as man on the ground of redemption, i.e., ascended, after having passed through death, into glory) from that glory confers meanwhile the Holy Ghost on him that believes, instead of bringing in at once the final feast of gladness for the Jews and the world, as He will do by-and-by when the anti-typical harvest and vintage has been fulfilled. He is ever God; He is the Son; He quickens and raises from the dead. They had stumbled before, and the Lord brought in not alone His person, as the Word made flesh, presented for man now to receive and enjoy; but unless they ate the flesh, and drank the blood of the Son of man, they had no life in them. How easy it is for us to do likewise. First, a new nature is insisted on the Holy Ghost's quickening of each soul who is vitally related to God's kingdom; next, the Spirit of God takes an active part not as source or character only, but acting sovereignly, which opens the way not only for a Jew, but for "every one." Thus it is not only the person of our Lord viewed as divine, and coming down into the world. (Ver. This, of course, supposes the setting aside of Jerusalem, its people and house, as they now are, and is justified by the great fact of Christ's death and resurrection, which is the key to all, though not yet intelligible even to the disciples. Man, dead in sins, was the object of His grace; but then man's state was such, that it would have been derogatory to God had that life been communicated without the cross of Christ: the Son of man lifted up on it was the One in whom God dealt judicially with the evil estate of man, for the, full consequences of which He made Himself responsible. the Messiah. Each gospel presents us with its own version of the following Truth - red flagging it, if you will, to demonstrate its importance: 23 Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me , he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. November 14, 2022 4:06 am CT . So rich and transparently divine was the grace: not some souls, more meritorious than the rest, rewarded according to a graduated scale of honour, but "of his fulness have all we received." (Verse John 7:39), Nothing can be simpler than this. (Verses John 6:59-71) What and if they should see Him, who came down and died in this world, ascend up where He was before? Protection delivered by the same tools Microsoft uses for business customers. He will have all honour the Son, even as Himself. Literally, the one coming. And so, in fact, it was and is. It may be that Philip was the one whom he thought to be most advanced in the lessons of faith. Here He is not portrayed as the Son of man who must be lifted up, but as the Son of God who was given. But do start from the first post since it is written as a book. This only secures His honour in those that believe God's testimony to Him, the Son of God; and to these He gives life, everlasting life now, and exemption from judgment, in this acting in communion with the Father. John 6:15. Jesus saw the man, and knowing that he was long thus, prompts the desire of healing, but brings out the despondency of unbelief. He who owns the reality of Christ's incarnation, receives most thankfully and adoringly from God the truth of redemption; he, on the contrary, who stumbles at redemption, has not really taken in the incarnation according to God's mind. And it also brings to mind something Moses once said. Matthew 6:14-15 "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your father who is in heaven will forgive you. It was not intended for other beings it was God's free gift to man, to the believer, of course. It is not denunciation, but the most solemn sentence in the calmest manner. There is difference of manner for the world and His own ignorance and rejection. The results for the believer or unbeliever are eternal in good or in evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. There are three principal ways of understanding what happened. If that cup could have been removed sans the cross and accomplished the purposes of God for which He came, I am pretty confident Jesus would have been all for it. But even this sufficed not: the Son of man must be lifted up. John 7:37) It is not a question of eating the bread of God, or, when Christ died, of eating His flesh and drinking His blood. (Verses John 3:1-6), But the Lord goes farther, and bids Nicodemus not wonder at His insisting on this need. he might be; and this, too, as the expression of the true and full grace of God in His only-begotten Son given. Natural birth had nothing to do with this new thing; it was a new nature altogether in those who received Him: "Who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." It is thus strikingly an anticipation of the result in glory. Blessed servant he of an infinitely blessed and blessing Master! Yet before a miracle, as well as in the working of those which set forth His glory, it is evident that so far from its being a gradual growth, as it were, in His mind, He had, all simple and lowly though He were, the deep, calm, constant consciousness that He was God. Grace begins, glory descends; "Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink." Here (John 5:1-47) the first view given of Christ is His person in contrast with the law. Nevertheless, the heavenly part is little dwelt on, as John's gospel displays our Lord more as the expression of God revealed on earth, than as Man ascended to heaven, which fell far more to the province of the apostle of the Gentiles. God's will cannot be done on earth as it is in heaven while we refuse to extend forgiveness to each other. Still, such is the effect on man under law, that he could not take advantage of an adequate remedy. In John chapter 6, we find Jesus in the northern part of Israel in the Sea of Galilee region. These disciples all had unique personalities. So we see in the attractive power, afterwards dealing with individual souls. (Verses John 3:11-13) He (and He was not alone here) knew God, and the things of God, consciously in Himself, as surely as He knew all men, and what was in man objectively. Jesus went up the mountain and sat down there with his disciples. Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. John gives us this point of contact with them, though in an incident peculiar to himself. As the Lamb of God (of the Father it is not said), He has to do with the world. Observe, that blessed as the light is, being God's moral nature, truth is more than this, and is introduced by grace. I want him to be my king, but on my terms. There is the need of another nature, and the only way in which this nature is communicated is by being born of water and the Spirit the employment of the word of God in the quickening energy of the Holy Ghost.

This is of a truth that prophet.This verse is peculiar to St. John. Here the unlimited scene is in view; not Israel, but the world. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." We find the prophecy in Deuteronomy: 15 The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers. He that comes from above from heaven is above all. This last is the figure of a truth deeper than incarnation, and clearly means communion with His death. 12 But we ask you, brothers and sisters, to recognize those who diligently labor among you and are in leadership over you in the Lord, and give you instruction, 13 and that you regard them very highly in love because of their work. It is the final setting aside of Judaism then, whose characteristic hope was the display of power and rest in the world.

I have my vision, my plan, my program, my agenda, and I want to force Jesus to get on boardwith what Im doing and how I believe my world should be.

Christ had served their purposes by filling their stomachs and now they prostituted their religion for secular sake by seeking Jesus for what His hand would provide rather than simply seeking Jesus Jesus is often sought for something other than for Himself. That the anger of the sc. ). The chapter pursues this subject, showing that it is not only God who thus deals first, with the necessity of man before His own immutable nature; next, blessing according to the riches of His grace but, further, that man's state morally is detected yet more awfully in presence of such grace as well as holiness in Christ.

While it is both true that He was the Prophet to come and that He would also lead His people out of bondage it was not quite the way they had planned. Now, it is the Holy Ghost in the power that gives rivers of living water flowing out, and this bound up with, and consequent on, His being man in glory. After seeing the Jews and the disciples struggling with the radical nature of his words, our Lord says to the disciples and to us all: "It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is of no avail; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life." Ye believe in God, believe also in me. Verse John 1:29 opens John's testimony to his disciples. This scene throws light on the use of in Matthew 11:12. They knew what they worshipped, but not the Father, nor were they "true." "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." Though He could not, would not deny Himself (and He was the Son, and Word, and God), yet had He taken the place of a man, of a servant. His corporeal presence was not necessary; His word was enough.

For them, Israel, or the world, all is over. They neglected the prophecy regarding the suffering servant which the prophet Isaiah had predicted: 3 He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Thus, in fact, we have the Lord setting aside what was merely Messianic by the grand truths of the incarnation, and, above all, of the atonement, with which man must have vital association: he must eat yea, eat and drink. It is our evangelist's way of indicating His Galilean sojourn; and this miracle is the particular subject that John was led by the Holy Ghost to take up. "The law was given by Moses."

But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your father forgive you your trespasses. It is Gods desire for me to die to my will and live for His through the power of the Spirit. The Lord Jesus presents Himself as putting an end to all this now for the Christian, though, of course, every word God has promised, as well as threatened, remains to be accomplished in Israel by-and-by; for Scripture cannot be broken; and what the mouth of the Lord has said awaits its fulfilment in its due sphere and season. It is not simply the new birth such as a saint might, and always must, have had, in order to vital relations with God at any time.
