Broken yet Chosen
The Gospel of John was written with a specific purpose in mind.
The Apostle writes at the end of the book Jn 20:31, “these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”
John wrote this Gospel so that those who read it and hear it may know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
Jesus all through out the gospel is revealing to those He comes in contact with the heart of God, which is to “Seek and save that which is lost.”
Luke 19:10
There are two interacts that happen in this Gospel that are very different yet both end up with the same solution.
In John Chapter 3 Nicodemus a pharisee, the best a nation has to offer, who devoted his life to religious rules, comes to Jesus and asks “how do I get eternal life.?”
Jesus’ answer to Him is you can’t do anything.
Without a supernatural act of God you cannot be born again.
You and have no control over your Spiritual birth.
This is the very reason why Christ came.
Jesus came because the world was dead in sin, and condemned.
Jesus came to save us from that Condemnation.
So there is nothing we can do to earn salvation, but look to Christ as Savior and Lord.
Here is John 4:1-45 we see Jesus interacting with someone completely different then Nicodemus.
The Mission Field
Jesus Had to go through Samaria John 4:4.
In the time of Jesus the Jews hated the Samaritans.
There was a prejudice against them and it was so bad that when a Jewish person travel north to Galilee from Jerusalem (Samaria is smack dab in the middle) they would add extra days to their trip to go around it.
This prejudice was extreme.
Why was there such a prejudice, because the Samaritans were viewed as half breeds, a mixture of Jewish and Assyrian, and whatever race was mixed in after Jerusalem was captured around 70 AD.
This is important cause when Jesus asks the woman for a drink she is shock.
First that a jew would ask for a Samaritan to give them anything, but also because she is a women.
Jesus going to this land reveals what the Jews had missed because of their hatred for the Samaritans, and that is that this was the mission field.
Jesus came for the broken, for the hurting, for the oppressed, and for the hopeless.
Christ came for those who are lost and being lost looks very different.
Someone can be lost at see and that looks completely different from being lost in a dessert, or lost in the woods, or lost in the city.
The point is that both the religious leader and this women who was the complete opposite were both lost.
One in a false religion and the other in a life full of sin.
Both needed a savior.
Jesus took the initiative in speaking to a Samaritan woman—an astonishing break with culture and tradition, showing his desire to save the lost.
The women was lost in her life of sin
Jesus shows this woman who was lost lost so much undeserved mercy.
He offers her a gift that wasn’t something she could ever earn
Jesus knew all about the woman’s life.
He even tells her how she has been living.
Nothing is hidden from God. Jesus being God knew this lady and chose to display His amazing mercy and grace.
Nothing was hidden from Him.
And looking at this story you would think “why would you pick that one.
She is sleeping with everyone and is disgusting.”
Yet Jesus stands in from of her and says:
This mercy without morality, it is mercy without religion.
She didn’t even know who Jesus was yet.
But yet He still offers this Free Gift.
Jesus is offering eternal life and forgiveness to this broken and all alone woman, who was an outcast even among her own people.
The Least of the Least.
She had no significance yet Jesus Stands before her says, “I know what you’ve done, I know all the shameful acts, yet if you knew the gift that stands before you you would ask and I would give you living water.”
The word gift used here by Jesus means free gift, which is a common theme throughout the bible.
This Gift that Jesus Offers doesn’t just satisfy once, but is becomes a spring that continues to flows in your life, and from your life.
It becomes the source of your life.
What Christ did for you and form me on the cross in now our life.
We are no longer dead, or condemned but we are saved and made alive.
This is the free gift and nothing can take it away from us.
Jesus Reveals who He is
The women is still confused and probably thinks that what Jesus says is a little crazy.
She doesn’t understand what Christ is offering her, and even asks for this physical miracle water that she can drink and never have to have another drink.
Jesus was talking about Spiritual water, that only God provides.
This is the first person in the Gospel of John that Jesus reveals Himself as God too.
What tender mercy and compassion Jesus had on this outcast.
Jesus not only offers grace and mercy to this woman, but He users her testimony of brokenness to lead others to Himself.
This living water has spilled over just by her sharing her story of what Christ had done-
