John 5: 19-29

 (John 5: 19-29)

Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.  For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.  For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.  For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:  That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.  For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;  And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.  Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,  And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

 

Jesus healed a 38-year-old man. The Jews asked him why he was working on the Sabbath. In response, Jesus refuted their tribulation, saying, "My Father is working, how can I not work?" When the Jews heard this, they were enraged, saying, ``Is God your Father? Then, do you mean that you may be a son of God?” The Jews do not understand with their common sense and tradition. Far from being understood by the Jews, Jesus became a sinner to be killed.

Jesus said, 『Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. .” Like this, Jesus only has thorough obedience and humble obedience before Heavenly Father. Christ is only doing the Father's will, and the Jews are doing their righteousness.

『Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 』He who believes here becomes one. If you cannot become one with Jesus Christ, you are not believing in God. To be one with Jesus Christ is to be united with Jesus, who died on the cross.

John 1: 19-28

(John 1: 19-28) And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?   And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.   And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.   Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?   He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.   And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.   And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?   John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;   He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.   These t...

John 1: 11-13

(John 1: 11-13) 『 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 』 God's children can call on the name of Jesus. Jesus is our master. No one can call on the name of Jesus. When we are born again in the spirit body, we can call on the name of Jesus. Otherwise, he is not related to Jesus. It's like what a non-family member calls a father. So Jesus will say, "Who are you? I do not know you." Those who are connected with Jesus are "those who die with Jesus, not believers in Jesus." . Those who die with Jesus feel pain with Jesus. This is repentance. Those who become Jesus' family must have a body of spirit, not a body of flesh. God gives the repentant a spirit body. God makes the body of the spirit by the light of the Holy Spirit. Thos...

John 1: 29-51

(John 1: 29-51) The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.   This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me. And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.   And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.   And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.   And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.   Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;   And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!   And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.   Then Jesus turned, and saw...
