Teaching John 7:37-39

Jesus appeals to the thirsty

By standing up and crying out Jesus attracts attention

Jesus encourages belief

The word “believes” in John 7:38 is translated in the ESV as “entrust” and “faith” elsewhere in the New Testament.

In John 7:38, it speaks about believing in the Jesus of the Gospel, not an imitation.

Jesus Promises the Spirit

A future reality

Jesus will be glorified

Jesus needs to be glorified before the Spirit can be sent.
