Jesus is alive

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 4, 19.  So I perceive that you are a prophet. This verse, we see the belief of Samaritans about the Messiah. Samaritan accepted only the first five books of the Bible that did not accept the historical books or the wisdom books and the prophetical books. They derived their interpretation of the Messiah from. Deuteronomy 18, 15, which says the Lord, thy God, will rise up unto you, a prophet from the midst of you of thy Brethren, like unto me and him you shall listen  This search, definitely referring to the Messiah. They did not understand the Incarnation that believed that the Messiah would be a Samaritan. The Samaritans were looking for a prophet who would be a mere man. And the Jews were looking for the Messiah who they were thinking as the king, but it was a wrong type of King. They were looking for a king who would deliver them from the Roman Empire. The Samaritans, as they did not believe in the books or from Joshua to Malachi...

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 4, 17, and 18.  The woman answered him. I have no husband. Jesus said to her, you are right in saying, I have no husband for you have had five husbands and the one you now have is not your husband. What you have said is true. We see Jesus by the gift of the Holy spirit, reveals that she had six husbands. We do not know if she diversed the other husbands or if  some are dead. But Jesus clearly speaks about marriage, and divorce  in Mark 10 chapter. Some Pharisees came to Jesus and asked him. Is it lawful for a man to diverse his wife. Jesus answered, but from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female. For this reason, man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife and the two shall become one flesh. So then they are no longer two, but one flesh Therefore, what God has joined together Let not man separate. Whoever diverses his wife and marries another commits adultery against her. And if a w...

Praise the Lord! Today's verse is John 4, 16.  Jesus said to her, go call your husband and come here. The woman's sin is now now dwelt with. Hence, Jesus is telling her go, call thy husband. This is saying to the woman, go call your husband and come here, made her to think about her past life and a moral life. God has given every person a conscience to convict him when he sins. But if we excuse our sin and keep doing the same sin, our conscience no longer convicts us of that sin. The parable of the prodigal son. We see that he took his father's possession and went and lived a reckless life, but when a famine came in his life, the situation of his life convicted him. Today also situations in our life will convict us of our sins. Jesus says, when the Holy Spirit comes, he will convict us of our sins. Are we living in a life of sin today? We may be involved in many religious ceremonies, but what can really cleanse us from our sins? The Bible clearly tells us in first John 1, 7...
