John 5:17-20
Notes
Transcript
And this was why the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.
This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”
Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.
But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”
This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.
After this Jesus went about in Galilee. He would not go about in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him.
Has not Moses given you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill me?”
The crowd answered, “You have a demon! Who is seeking to kill you?”
I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you.
but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.
Jesus wept.
So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise.
And he who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”
but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.
So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise.
For the Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And greater works than these will he show him, so that you may marvel.
For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell,
For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily,
in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
For the Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing. And greater works than these will he show him, so that you may marvel.
