LAST RELATIONSHIP OVER RELIGION/RULES
RED LETTER: JESUS LAUNCHES INTO SPEECH/DISCOURSE ABOUT HIMSELF, IDENTITY----CHRISTOLOGY STUDY OF Christ......about himself....what does Jesus say about himself-----does it match yours. JEHOVA WITNESS
DA Carson---Nobody can make these statements unless He’s God or insane
Jesus was either a Liar, a Lunatic, or Lord.
John 5:16–30 (NIV)
16 So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began to persecute him. 17 In his defense Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I too am working.”
18 For this reason they tried all the more to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. 19 Jesus gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does.
20 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, and he will show him even greater works than these, so that you will be amazed. 21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son gives life to whom he is pleased to give it.
22 Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him.
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. 25 Very truly I tell you, a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live.
26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself. 27 And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man.
28 “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned.
30 By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me.
John 5:16–18 (ESV)
16 And this was why the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath. 17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”
“PERSECUTED” present imperfect tense in Greek, BEGAN TO PERSECUTE AND CONTINUED AND KEPT
mY FATHER IS WORKING UNTIL NOW AND I AM WORKING......HOLDING the world together....don’t stop
JESUS PURPOSE IS THE SAME AS GOD
While you’re resting, God is working.....
so WHY ARE YOU WORRYING?!!
18 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.
ENEMIES KNEW exactly what Jesus was saying.....crucified him for it
JESUS ASSUMED THE SAME PROPERTIES AS GOD.....I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE
LIVING WATER…never thirst
the way the truth
seen me you have seen the father, i and the father are one
whats easier to forgive sins or say rise, get up and walk
power to heal, to raise the dead, know what they’re thinking, invalid 38 years
19 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.
equal in purpose, properties and Jesus is equal with God in performance
20 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. 21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will.
JESUS IS EQUAL TO GOD IN POWER
physical life and spiritual life
NO one takes my life from me
18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it up again. I have received this command from my Father.”
John 5:22–23 (ESV)
22 For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
Jesus is equal to God in PRAISE
Revelation 5:12 (ESV)
12 saying with a loud voice,
“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might
and honor and glory and blessing!”
24 Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.
JESUS IS EQUAL TO GOD IN PROMISE
PROMISE OF ETERNAL LIFE
17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
PEOPLE CAN’T HEAR IF YOU DON’T SPEAK
25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. 26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself. 27 And he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
13 “I saw in the night visions,
and behold, with the clouds of heaven
there came one like a son of man,
and he came to the Ancient of Days
and was presented before him.
: JEWS WORLDVIEW , MESSIAH....VISION OF A PROMISED ONE, IN the form of man but with all the power and authority of God!!!
JESUS IS EQUAL TO GOD IN PUNISHMENT
JESUS IS JUDGE BECAUSE HE’S KING
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.
28 Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice 29 and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
30 “I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.
16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
JESUS IS EQUAL TO GOD IN THAT HE IS THE PRIZE
PURPOSE PROPERTY PERFORMANCE POWER PRAISE PROMISE PUNISHMENT PRIZE
JESUS SAID I SEEK NOT MY OWN WILL BUT THE WILL OF HIM WHO SENT ME
CAN YOU SAY THE SAME?
LIVE WITH URGENCY---GENE
