Good afternoon! This past Sunday, Pastor Alan taught about John 7 and the important questions found in that chapter. To listen to this message, simply click play on the audio player below. I’ve also included Pastor’s outline of the message and links to the verses he references.
John 7 – Important Questions to Answer
- Where is Jesus? John 7:1-13 (vs.11)
- Jesus never pandered to the demand of popularity or position. He didn’t show up based on others’ demands.
- How does Jesus know so much? John 7:14-18 (vs.15)
- Spiritual knowledge is in direct proportion to a submissive will. Romans 12:1-3
- Who wants to kill Jesus? John 7:19-24 (vs.19)
- Self-righteousness desires to kill Jesus and ignore grace. Don’t be a grace killer.
- Who is Jesus really? John 7:25-31
- An understanding of Passover and Festival of Shelters answers the questions. Jesus is both Provider and Deliverer.
- Will you come to Jesus? John 7:32-39
- The invitation is for the thirsty to come. If you come you receive living water which is the Holy Spirit.
- What keeps people from coming and believing?
- Do you believe his prophetic credentials? John 7:40-52
- The question that arises, as to who Jesus was, is based on the geographical location of where he was from.
- Both locations as to where Jesus was from fulfilled in O.T. prophecy of the Messiah. Matthew 2:5-6, Matthew 2:23, Isaiah 11:1-2
- Jesus was born in Bethlehem (House of Bread) and grew up in Nazareth (Branch town)
