Conflict
Conflict with Jesus and the Jewish authorities begin to escalate.
John 5:6-
How exactly did Jesus cure the paralytic man?
What was significant about this?
Jesus asks the man.
Jesus demonstrates His authority over illness by telling the man to get up, take his bed, and walk.
How did the Jews react to this remarkable miracle?
Why?
John 5:
The Jewish authorities viewed this miracle as a violation of the Sabbath Command.
The authorities embraced the rabbinical oral tradition which had developed over time expanding the definition of “work” to include almost every activity.
What four witnesses did Jesus cite as testifying to His identity as the Messiah/Son of God?
John the Baptist
The works that the Father has given me to accomplish, the very works that I am doing, bear witness about me that the Father has sent me.
(v.
36)
The Father
Scriptures
What dangers of organized religion does this passage in Matthew highlight?
John 5:16
John 5:
Organized religion can add to and modify the actual meaning of God’s Word.
Constant study and genuine interpretation of God’s Word is critical.
What was the reaction of the masses to Christ’s feeding of the five thousand?
In what ways is this still a common response to Jesus?
John 6:
They misunderstood who Jesus was/is and attempted to make him a political king.
This followed their preconceived notions.
It is easy to misunderstand Jesus and His teachings—to be led astray from the meaning of God’s written revelation.
What did Jesus mean by “I am the bread of life”?
John 6:
Jesus is the “bread of life” in the sense that he nourishes people spiritually and satisfies the deep spiritual longings of their souls.
In that sense, those who trust in him shall not hunger; that is, their spiritual longing to know God will be satisfied (cf.
John 4:14 for a similar discussion of satisfying people’s spiritual thirst).
