For believers in Christ to enjoy the fullness of joy promised them by God all the time (John 16:23-24) 5. 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. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

John 3:19; John 3:19) Other things, the merest trifles, may serve to indicate a man's condition; but a new responsibility is created by this infinite display of divine goodness in Christ, and the evidence is decisive and final, that the unbeliever is already judged before God. Of course it is the revelation of Christ; but here He was simply revealing the sources of this indispensable new birth. And worship is viewed both in moral nature and in the joy of communion doubly.

Jesus is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world, but withal, as he had said, the eternal One, yet in view of His manifestation to Israel (and, therefore, John was come baptizing with water a reason here given, but not to the Pharisees in verses 25-27). To the Pharisees, indeed, his words as to the Lord are curt: nor does he tell them of the divine ground of His glory, as he had before and does after.

He could, therefore, tell them of heavenly things as readily as of earthly things; but the incredulity about the latter, shown in the wondering ignorance of the new birth as a requisite for God's kingdom, proved it was useless to tell of the former. The Spirit of God uses that word; it is thus invariably in conversion. The term "pro-life" spans beyond ending abortion and makes sure women and babies get the care that reflects their dignity and celebrates life in all circumstances. 6. This brings in the great counterpart truth, that even God present on earth and made flesh is not enough. Flesh and world are judged morally. Download. Every advocate of PME does this. But this, however worthy of God, and indispensable for man, could not of itself give an adequate expression of what God is; because in this alone, neither His own love nor the glory of His Son finds due display.

Spite of the most express signs, and the manifest finger of God that wrote the ten words on tables of stone, the law sinks into comparative insignificance.

The resurrection of the Lord is not more truly a demonstration of His power and glory, than the only deliverance for disciples from the thraldom of Jewish influence. 3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie--the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. Why should He not show Himself to the world? It was no longer a moot-point whether God could trust man; for, indeed, He could not. John 5:24 New International Version 24 "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.

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 character is wholly different from the position and glory of Messiah in Israel, according to promise and prophecy. Observe: not which was, but "which is." Remark, too, the extent of the work involved in verse 29. In Him was life for this scene of death; and it is of faith that it might be by grace. (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. Lastly, closing this part, we have another most remarkable contrast. But there is much that we do know about the abundant life (Jn 10:10) that Jesus came to give us. Thus the Holy Ghost, given by the Son in humiliation (according to God, not acting on law, but according to the gift of grace in the gospel), was fully set forth; but the woman, though interested, and asking, only apprehended a boon for this life to save herself trouble here below. Further, John attests that he saw the Spirit descending like a dove, and abiding on Him the appointed token that He it is who baptizes with the Holy Ghost even the Son of God. "Come, see a man that told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?" It is the final setting aside of Judaism then, whose characteristic hope was the display of power and rest in the world. Then, with the new nature of God, he sees Christ for who he really is, and freely receives Christ for all that he is. Still, such is the effect on man under law, that he could not take advantage of an adequate remedy. The Son had not come to execute the judgments of the law they knew, nor even to promulgate a new and higher law. Now it is that the great question is decided; now it is that a man receives or refuses Christ. For the Christian eternal life begins upon belief in him who sent Jesus. It was God's great gift of love, mercy and grace (John 3:16; Ephesians 2:4-9). But there was this difference from the former occasion, that, at the marriage in Cana (John 2:1-25), the change of the water into wine was clearly millennial in its typical aspect. In truth, Christian baptism did not yet exist, but only such as the disciples used, like John the Baptist; it was not instituted of Christ till after His resurrection, as it sets forth His death. 4 5 One who was . Ephesians 3:20 Context. The chapters we have had before us (John 1:1-51; John 2:1-25; John 3:1-36) are thus evidently an introduction: God revealed not in the Word alone, but in the Word made flesh, in the Son who declared the Father; His work, as God's Lamb, for the world, and His power by the Holy Ghost in man; then viewed as the centre of gathering, as the path to follow, and as the object even for the attendance of God's angels, the heaven being opened, and Jesus not the Son of God and King of Israel only, but the Son of man object of God's counsels. Nor will the full force of this expression be witnessed till the glorious result of His blood shedding sweep away the last trace of sin in the new heavens and the new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. (Ver. They could not deny Him to be man Son of man. He would have every soul to know assuredly how he stands for eternity as well as now. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: that all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. They should have understood more about Him those that were specially favoured. And while He does not hide the privilege of the Jews, He nevertheless proclaims that "the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. Rate this: Share this: Heavenly things are set in evident contradistinction, and link themselves immediately here, as everywhere, with the cross as their correlative. (Verses John 4:20-30), The disciples marvelled that He spoke with the woman. Indeed, it is the total eclipse, not merely of law and remedial mercies, but even of promised Messianic glory, by everlasting life and resurrection at the last day. It was not the time now to demonstrate in public power these coming, yea, then present truths. How truly it is man under law! But see the blessed fruit of receiving it. John 5:24 (NASB) Verse Thoughts Jesus had just healed a man at the pool of Bethsaida, but He did this healing on the Sabbath. The implications of this are staggering. The person of the Son was there the object of divine and overflowing joy even then, although, of course, in the full sense of the word, the Holy Ghost might not be given to be the power of it for some time later; but still the object of worship was there revealing the Father; butJohn 7:1-53; John 7:1-53 supposes Him to be gone up to heaven, before He from heaven communicates the Holy Ghost, who should be (not here, as Israel had a rock with water to drink of in the wilderness outside themselves, nor even as a fountain springing up within the believer, but) as rivers flowing out.

Although the Gospel is ostensibly written by St. John the Apostle, "the beloved disciple" of Jesus, there has been considerable discussion of the actual . Today, it is still Jesuss Word that saves.

The incarnate Word was here full of grace and truth. 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. His Father "saving him from death" could have meant protection from death. In both instances Thomas appears as a person loyal to Jesus and ready to die with him, but, at the same time, skeptical, stubborn, and realist in a somehow negative way. We were dead in our trespasses and sins, walking in darkness (Eph 2:1).

Thus we have here the other side of the truth: not merely what God is in life and light, in grace and truth, as revealed in Christ coming down to man; but man is now judged in the very root of his nature, and proved to be entirely incapable, in his best state, of seeing or entering the kingdom of God. Fritzsche, p. 21). One of the peculiarities of our gospel is, that we see the Lord from time to time (and, indeed, chiefly) in or near Jerusalem. Life resurrection will display how little they had to be ashamed of, who believed the record given of His Son; the resurrection of judgment will make but too plain, to those who despised the Lord, both His honour and their sin and shame. The Light, on coming into the world, lightens every man with the fulness of evidence which was in Him, and at once discovers the true state as truly as it will be revealed in the last day when He judges all, as we find it intimated in the gospel afterwards. By and by He will apply it to "that nation," the Jews, as to others also, and finally (always excepting the unbelieving and evil) to the entire system, the world. So on the last day, that great day of the feast (the eighth day, which witnessed of a resurrection glory outside this creation, now to be made good in the power of the Spirit before anything appears to sight), the Lord stands and cries, saying, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink." 05:08. Here there could not be more, and He would not give less: even "grace upon grace." The looking for signs and wonders is rebuked; but mortality is arrested. Besides this, goodness overflows, in that the Father is gathering children, and making worshippers. So bright was His glory, so concerned was the Father in maintaining it, so immense the blessing if received, so tremendous the stake involved in its loss, that God vouchsafed the amplest and clearest witnesses.

If He put forth His power, it was not only beyond man's measure, but unequivocally divine, however also the humblest and most dependent of men. Judgment has been given on Christ on the cross, so the believer will face no judgment for his or her sins. It was not that they were better than their neighbours. Jesus is announcing His role as the One Who reverses the judgement passed on mankind [Adam & Eve] in the Garden of Eden. (VersesJohn 6:1-21; John 6:1-21).

Nothing less than everlasting life in Christ can deliver: otherwise there remains judgment. Using a meeting as an opportunity to really listen to others in the meeting. As John said (1:14), "And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth." In heaven, we will see Jesus' glory in all its fullness (17:24). John was not yet cast into prison.

In the beginning of the chapter it was rather an essential indispensable action of the Holy Ghost required; here it is the privilege of the Holy Ghost given. "Ye will not come to me that ye might have life." How withering the words! Here, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink." 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. "Jesus had simply explained the gospel that we read in John chapter 3: "That whosoever believes on the Him will not perish but have everlasting life." hath everlasting life; not only in the purpose of God, and in the covenant of his grace, and in the hands of Christ, and in faith and hope; but he has a right unto it, and a claim of it, according to the declaration of the Gospel; and besides, has the principle of it in himself, the grace of God, which springs up into, is the beginning of, and issues in eternal life; he has also a meetness for it, and has the pledge and earnest of it, the Spirit of God, and shall certainly enjoy it: and shall not come into condemnation; neither for original sin, though judgment has passed upon all men unto condemnation for it; nor for actual sins and transgressions: for though everyone deserves condemnation, yet were there as many sentences of condemnation issued out as sins committed, not one of them could be executed on such who are in Christ Jesus, as he that believes in him is openly and manifestatively in him: the reason is, because the death of Christ is a security against all condemnation; and whoever believes in him shall not be condemned, but saved; and though he may come into judgment, yet not into condemnation: he shall stand in judgment, and be acquitted by the righteousness of Christ, which he, by faith, receives as his justifying righteousness.
