John 1:17; John 1:17) The law, thus given, was in itself no giver, but an exacter; Jesus, full of grace and truth, gave, instead of requiring or receiving; and He Himself has said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

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. He was God. How truly it is man under law! 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.

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.

No mere man, nor angel, not the highest, the archangel, but the Son. Observe, it is not (as is often very erroneously said or sung) a question of sins, but of the "sin" of the world. Hence the Son, being in this ineffable nearness of love, has declared not God only, but the Father. Without sign, prodigy, or miracle, in this village of Samaria Jesus was heard, known, confessed as truly the Saviour of the world ("the Christ" being absent in the best authorities, ver. Neither does the Spirit say exactly as the English Bible says "sons," but children. Then, resuming the strain of verse John 1:14, we are told, in verseJohn 1:16; John 1:16, that "of his fulness have all we received." We have had his name introduced into each part of the preface of our evangelist. 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." But it is important we should know how He entered the world. His earthly rights are just where they should be; but not here, where the only-begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father has His appropriate place. John then declared his own waning before Christ, as we have seen, the issues of whose testimony, believed or not, are eternal; and this founded on the revelation of His glorious person as man and to man here below. It is the wider, universal glory of the Son of man (according toPsalms 8:1-9; Psalms 8:1-9); but the most striking part of it verified from that actual moment because of the glory of His person, which needed not the day of glory to command the attendance of the angels of God this mark, as Son of man. Why should He not show Himself to the world? John 4:16-19 16 He told her, Go, call your husband and come back. 17 I have no husband, she replied.

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. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome[ a] it. What more glorious proof than that the Holy Ghost is given not a certain defined power or gift, but the Holy Ghost Himself; for God gives not the Spirit by measure! It is thus strikingly an anticipation of the result in glory. The truth is, the design of manifesting His glory governs all; place or people was a matter of no consequence. This testimony differs from the rest in having a more permanent character. . Here, then, we have a remarkable display of that which preceded His Galilean ministry, or public manifestation. His corporeal presence was not necessary; His word was enough. It was much, yet was it little of the glory that was His; but at least it was real; and to the one that has shall be given. Man is morally judged. Who Is Lillith and Why Don't We Find Her in Our Bible? It was not that they were better than their neighbours. "The law was given by Moses." Web40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. Such shall live. 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. (Ver. Instead, Pilate has Jesus flogged (John 19:1). Jesus explains: "My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

It is not now the revelation of God meeting man either in essential nature, or as manifested in flesh; nor is it the course of dispensational dealing presented in a parenthetic as well as mysterious form, beginning with John the Baptist's testimony, and going down to the millennium in the Son, full of grace and truth. This would make all manifest. The Lord, in the latter part of the chapter (verses John 6:27-58), contrasts the presentation of the truth of God in His person and work with all that pertained to the promises of Messiah. New Living Translation. They had eyes, but they saw not; ears had they, but they heard not, nor did they understand His glory. The Father did not judge, but committed all judgment into the hands of the Son, because He is the Son of man. His name was John. It was no longer a moot-point whether God could trust man; for, indeed, He could not. But knowing what will happen, and realizing it's part of a plan, greatly reduces our fear. Before the manner of His manifestation comes before us in verse 14, we have the secret explained why some, and not all, received Christ. God is love. 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. That is an average increase of $1.49 trillion per year. he might be; and this, too, as the expression of the true and full grace of God in His only-begotten Son given. Alas! But as many as received him, to them gave he power [rather, authority, right, or title] to become children of God." "He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true. The way you see God has everything to do with how you approach Him, how you relate to Him. It passes over all question of dispensations, until it accomplishes, in all its extent, that purpose for which He thus died. The ignorance of the world has been proved, the rejection of Israel is complete: then only is it that we hear of this new place of children. (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. Hence it is that here the Son, according to the grace of God the Father, gives the Holy Ghost eternal life in the power of the Spirit. but they go down into the depths of God, lifting burdens off the heart of humanity, turning duty into delight, and changing the aspect of all things. 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. What a witness all this to His person! Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither. For if the Son (cast out, we may say, in principle from Judaism) visited Samaria, and deigned to talk with one of the most worthless of that worthless race, it could not be a mere rehearsal of what others did. behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. The Lord meets him at once with the strongest assertion of the absolute necessity that a man should be born anew in order to see the kingdom of God. For nothing can be more observable than the way in which He becomes the centre round whom those that belong to God are gathered. Thus we all not only receive of His fulness, (and what fulness illimitable was there not in Him!) Till then the Holy Ghost could not be so given only when Jesus was glorified, after redemption was a fact. And He did accept that place thoroughly, and in all its consequences. 41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. But how precious the grace, in presence of their hatred and proud self-complacency! Whosoever denieth the Son hath not the Father; he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. But Jesus finds him in the temple, and said, "Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." But let them beware how they perverted it. "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." There is but one unfailing test the Son of God God's testimony to Him. but He, who is the Word made flesh, is the only-begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, and so competent to declare, as in fact He has. If believers genuinely love God they will also obey his commandments. For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. Thus former things pass away; the old man is judged, dead, and clean gone. This brings in the great counterpart truth, that even God present on earth and made flesh is not enough. How could either light or love rest in a scene of sin, darkness, and misery? The character is wholly different from the position and glory of Messiah in Israel, according to promise and prophecy. called also John the Baptist. What you have just said is quite true.

Help us purchase electrical generators for churches. Here was One on earth who knew all secrets. God the Father forms a new family in, by, and for Christ. The allusion to the fig-tree confirms this. Thus we have traced, first, hearts not only attracted to Him, but fresh souls called to follow Him; then, in type, the call of Israel by-and-by; finally, the disappearance of the sign of moral purifying for the joy of the new covenant, when Messiah's time comes to bless the needy earth; but along with this the execution of judgment in Jerusalem, and its long defiled temple. Such are the grand emphatic points to which the Lord leads. John 3:1-36 follows this up. John told us that he was at Jesus crucifixion and saw these things with his own eyes (John 19:35). I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours." Various provisions were made for him in England (117476), including the succession to the a male mule, or more ( ) flesh, and dwelt among us." Meanwhile, for Christian worship, the hour was coming and in principle come, because He was there; and He who vindicated salvation as of the Jews, proves that it is now for Samaritans, or any who believed on account of His word. (Ver. It is not a message or a sign, however significant at the moment, which passes away as soon as heard or seen. "For God," He says, "so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life." He who inspired them to communicate His thoughts of Jesus in the particular line assigned to each, raised up John to impart the highest revelation, and thus complete the circle by the deepest views of the Son of God. The first four chapters of John precede in point of time the notices of His ministry in the other gospels. The hour was one for faith, or unbelief. 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. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in The judgment, all of it, whether for quick or dead, is consigned to Him, because He is Son of man. 8 He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light. 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. Copyright 2023, Bible Study Tools. 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. Although the authorship of the Johannine works has traditionally been attributed to John the Apostle, only a minority of But the Spirit would not confine His operations to such bounds, but go out freely like the wind. John 7:24) They reason and are in utter uncertainty. All disciplinary action, every probationary process, disappears. God loves us as a father loves his own son. 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: (Verses John 5:13-16), A graver issue, however, was to be tried; for Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. Each had his own; all are harmonious, all perfect, all divine; but not all so many repetitions of the same thing. What sayest thou of thyself? 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. 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. It was meet that so it should be; for, as a question of right, none could claim; and grace surpasses all expectation or thought of man, most of all of men accustomed to a round of religious ceremonial. (See Hebrews 12:2, Hebrews 13:11-13) Again, let me just remark in passing, that although, no doubt, we may in a general way speak of those who partake of the new nature as having that life, yet the Holy Ghost refrains from predicating of any saints the full character of eternal life as a present thing until we have the cross of Christ laid (at least doctrinally) as the ground of it. Deeper questions demanded solution. It is not merely or most of all a great prophet or witness: He is the Son; and the Father has given all things to be in His hand. Christ was the true sanctuary, not that on which man had laboured so long in Jerusalem. ? 1 John 4:16-19 New International Version 16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. Expand. (VersesJohn 3:7-8; John 3:7-8), It is hardly necessary to furnish detailed disproof of the crude, ill-considered notion (originated by the fathers), that baptism is in question.

His exaltation there is not without notice in the gospel, but exceptionally. The healing of the courtier's son, sick and ready to die, is witness of what the Lord was actually doing among the despised of Israel. The incarnate Word was here full of grace and truth. He is a divine person; His manhood brought no attainder to His rights as God. Christ here, it will be noticed, is not so much the quickening agent as Son of God (John 5:1-47), but the object of faith as Son of man first incarnate, to be eaten; then dying and giving His flesh to be eaten, and His blood to be drank. 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. Surely He was there, a weary man outside Judaism; but God, the God of all grace, who humbled Himself to ask a drink of water of her, that He might give the richest and most enduring gift, even water which, once drank, leaves no thirst for ever and ever yea, is in him who drinks a fountain of water springing up unto everlasting life.

And great are the advantages arising from hence, for hereby the saints' love to God is made perfect; they have boldness in the day of judgment, since as he is, so are they in this world, and fear is cast out by it, 1Jo 4:17,18, but lest too much should be thought to be ascribed to love, that is said to be owing to the love of God to them, which is prior to theirs to him, and the reason of it, 1Jo 4:19. He was God. 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. All is fitly closed by the declaration, that "the Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand." 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.

For as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; and hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man. John, therefore, who had been the honoured witness before of God's call, "the voice," etc., does now by the outpouring of his heart's delight, as well as testimony, turn over, so to say, his disciples to Jesus. WebJohn repeats that people must believe in Jesus as the Son of God in order to be saved, and that love for God is inseparable from love for Gods people (5:1). How singularly is the glory of the Lord Jesus thus viewed, as invested with the testimony of God and its crown! Thus solemnly does the meek Lord Jesus unfold these two truths. At that time Jesus remained in the judgment hall. Remark, too, the extent of the work involved in verse 29. and the two disciples leave John for Jesus. John 5:19-29), It is evident, then, that the Lord presents life in Himself as the true want of man, who was not merely infirm but dead. (Verses John 1:44-51). 7 He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe. Was this false and blasphemous in their eyes? not the Jews only; for, as far as intelligence went, it was little better with the disciples till He rose from the dead. "He that believeth on him is not judged: but he that believeth not is judged already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
