BE STILL/PRAY
SHAME AND GUILT
The fact that this woman is coming to gather water in the hottest part of the day brings us to the conclusion that she did not feel comfortable with being seen during the times they normally gathered water.
Many scholars believe that this woman felt a lot of guilt and shame.
Jesus’ encounter is not normal.
In this culture, men did not address women as seen in verse 27.
The initiation of conversation shows us that there was something that needed addressed in this woman’s life.
There was a reason that this encounter happened.
JESUS DESIRES AN ENCOUNTER WITH YOU
JEWISH PEOPLE HATED SAMARITANS.
NOT ONLY WAS SHE A SAMARITAN, BUT ALSO A WOMAN.
THIS WOULD HAVE GIVEN JESUS NO REASON TO TALK TO HER.
YOU ARE NOT DEFINED BY CULTURAL CONSTRUCTS, YOUR DEFINED BY CHRIST
GIFT- (dōrea)- ONLY REFERENCED ONCE IN ALL 4 GOSPELS, BUT TALKED ABOUT 4 TIMES IN THE BOOK OF ACTS IN RELATION TO THE GIVING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
LIVING WATER-TERM REFERRED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT AS THE HOLY SPIRIT.
LITTLE DID SHE KNOW THAT SHE WAS ABOUT TO UNDERSTAND WHO JESUS WAS AND WHAT HE WAS GETTING READY TO DO WITHIN HER LIFE.
JESUS SIDESTEPS THE QUESTION
JESUS WAS EXPLAINING THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS THE “LIVING WATER” THAT HE WANTED TO GIVE TO HER.
THE TERM WELLING UP IS A TERM USED TO DESCRIBE THE ACTIVITY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THIS IS TO SHOW THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ACTIVE TO THOSE WHO RECEIVE IT.
WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPERIENCE THE HOLY SPIRIT.
WE HAVE TO CHOOSE TO ACCEPT AND RECEIVE IT.
SHE IS INTERESTED, AND SHE STILL DOESN’T UNDERSTAND.
SCHOLARS BELIEVE THAT THIS WOMAN WAS EITHER MARRIED 5 TIMES, OR THE RELATIONSHIPS SHE WAS IN WERE ADULTEROUS.
BUT ONE THING THAT WE CAN CONCLUDE IS THAT THE WOMAN WAS LOOKING FOR DEEP, MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS IN ALL THE WRONG PLACED.
JESUS WAS NOT INTENDING GUILT, BUT WAS CONFRONTING THE FACT THAT HE WAS THAT RELATIONSHIP SHE WAS LOOKING FOR.
JESUS WAS FORESHADOWING THE FACT THAT SOON IT WOULD NOT MATTER WHERE YOU WORSHIP, BECAUSE....
WORSHIP BELONGS TO ALL!
JESUS IS THE FULFILLMENT OF ALL YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!
