Man’s Response to Jesus
John 7:1-
Jesus came as the light to the world, God teaching His people.
In this teaching, Jesus challenged the authorities of the day and the motivation and hearts of the acts of the people.
The Jewish faith of the day had lost its power, the support and power of God, and had been replaced by an impossible system of control and fear based around fulfilling a law that had no power to save.
As people came face to face with the truth, they responded in a manner that met the means by which Jesus had challenged them.
For the teachers of the law and the authorities fo the day, they responded to Jesus with the need to rid themselves of Him.
The crowds sought Jesus for what He could do to impact their daily life.
The disciples followed Jesus desiring Him to be the Messiah who would usher in the new reign of Israel.
Today, our response to Jesus is formed by who we need Jesus to be in the moment.
We create our own god, a god who greater than ourselves in power but submissive to our needs and desires.
We mold and shape for ourselves an entity that is deeply concerned with what we want.
This is not who God is though.
God is not a construct of our minds.
He is God.
He was, is and will always be.
He is the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end.
He is the creator of all things, and it is through Him alone that the universe is held together.
He is the unstoppable One.
He is the One for which all creation cries out.
He is the one who is worthy of all worship and praise, not because of what He has done but because of who He is.
He is God.
Our response to Him should be centered on who He is, not who we want Him to be.
Who is leading who?
Jesus Responds to Man
This enunciates a very important fact: recognizing the truth of Jesus’ teaching is not dependent upon intellectual ability or formal learning, nor is it a reward for the noble search for truth.
It depends, rather, upon a person’s willingness to do the will of God.
While man responds to God by making God who we desire Him to be, God responds to man by allowing man to be reach the potential of who he was created to be.
God designed man to have the potential to lead all the rest of creation in glorifying the Creator.
Man has the capacity to do all things for the glory of the Almighty.
Since the dawn of time, God has responded to man by revealing Himself to man so that man would know Him and would clearly know his purpose.
God has given to man all that is necessary for life lived to its fullest, a relationship with the Creator.
As Jesus expounds on the Scriptures, He breathes to life this truth.
How could He teach with such grasp of the Scriptures without having gone through the training that the teachers of the law had.
Jesus responds that true knowledge comes from the giver of knowledge.
Is Jesus the smartest man in the world?
Yes, He is the creator of knowledge.
He is the author of all things.
Apart from Him nothing has come into being, including our knowledge.
If you do the will of God then you will know God.
God has responded to us by giving us Himself.
As we follow Him, trust in Him, believe in Him, we receive all that we need for life.
Apart from Him, there is no life, but in Him, the possible is made real.
