John on the love of Jesus and you
I am getting bad at keeping up with this and the word and that is never good. We need the word all the time. First a couple things I need to dat to readers. No the bible needs to be studied and I am not going to stop. I know a few do not think I ought to read and make conclusions on the bible but that is a Catholic thing and I am not ever going to need to join them as they are wrong on the values I have. It is not them who have the truth it is Jesus alone that saved you by his blood and no work you ever do is ok to save you. Never do they factor into the saving of your soul Jesus blood alone does it and I will never be ok with any system that does not teach that. I am not going to let a priest teach me. I am a priest and so is every one that Jesus picks and saved. Read Hebrews and see that Jesus is the line of priest and we are to go to Him alone to confess our sins and not any man.
I am sort of going in John about one time a week and I am hoping to more into it over the summer and not have to hit KJV sites and tell you all they are nuts. But if your out there I am going to keep on you KJV folks until you all stop this non sense. I got to say a good friend that grew up that way started a church. (He was a baptist and saw the light) and he preaches out of the ESB and I say that because I am out to get kids to get looking at the issue from all sides and I want to tell kids the truth on this issue and say how silly it really is
John 5 39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life;
I said that the book of John is like a court room in parts and Jesus is the one the author is showing to be God. Here Jesus has been told to be true from God the Father and John The baptist. Jesus is now saying the folk read the bible and the words of the bible all point to him. Jesus is thew theme of all the old things they read and Jesus is not the one they go to for life. People need not look anywhere but to the bible and Jesus for life forever. Jesus is going to save you but without the bible no one is going to know that. We need to have a bible to know who Jesus is. Jesus is the way to have life forever.
and these are they which testify of Me. 40 But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.
They are not willing partly because Jesus did not call them to saving faith. If they knew who Jesus was then they will come right away. People would see the promise of heaven and run to Jesus and his grace but folks are not because the Lord has not given them life or worked in them to come to Jesus. We need to be willing but no one in the flesh is willing because the desire to follow is not going to come unless the Lord places it into a man.
41 “I do not receive honor from men.
Jesus does not come to get the praise of man. Jesus is not going to get the praise unle3ss he sets people up by working on thekm to give him praise. Never look folks for the praise of man you look for the praise of God and the approval of God because in the end that is all that is going to matter. If Jesus does not love you I wonder if life even matters. I know Jesus does love you and wants you to love him and be closer to him. But if Jesus did not love you I wonder if life is worth anything really. To me it would not because as a man that knows the Lo9rd his love is all that matters and sometime that love is in others for me. Jesus also did not look for mans honor because he had the honor of God and that was all that matters to him so why ought we look for mans love when Jesus did not need it
42 But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you. 43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive. 44 How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes from the only God? 45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you—Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me. 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”1
In that time nobody loved Jesus if God did not love Jesus and they knew God. In 44 Jesus asked a good thing, How can you look to one another and look for love when there is no love in man for man. Listen there is no love to give if Jesus is not with you and if your not saved you have no love because God is the only love out there. If one does not love God he is unable to love anyone, because there is no love outside Jesus.
I think the last part of the passage is telling the people that Jesus points to the bible and the bible points to Jesus. Jesus is the center of all the bible and it points to him in every part. In the old Jesus is in every book. Here is a song to show this
