"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
Today's Bible Verse: John 5:17,18 "But Jesus answered them, 'My Father has been working until now, and I have been working.' Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Him equal with God."
Jesus in verse 17 basically tells the Jewish leaders that His Father is God and that He is the "only begotten Son", meaning the unique Son of God. Here He claims not only a unique relationship with God the Father, but also equality with God in nature. Since God continually does good works without allowing Himself to stop on the Sabbath, the Son does likewise, since He is equal with God. The Jewish leaders understood the implications of the claim of Jesus.
Christ, the second person in the Trinity, is equal to the Father in nature, seperate in person, yet submissive in duties; as such He is God. Some people even today say that Jesus never claimed to be God. People who make this claim simply have not read the New Testament very carefully. The high priest and religious leaders knew very well what he was claiming. They hardened their hearts and refused to believe and was determined to kill Him.
Today's Hymn: "Anywhere With Jesus"
Anywhere with Jesus I am not alone,
Other friends may fail me, He is still my own
Through His hand may lead me over drearest ways
Anywhere with Jesus is a house of praise
Anywhere, anywhere! Fear I cannot know
Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go.
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, How thankful we are that Jesus is indeed the only begotten Son of God and that He is The Way, The Truth and The Life. Holy Spirit fill our cups till they overrun with Your Mercy, Your Love and Your Grace. Let the Light of Christ shine within us so that others will be drawn to us that we might be able to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ.
Amen
