John 4:1,2

Image
Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 4th chapter verses one and two we have started the fourth chapter today. Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees have heard that Jesus was baptizing more disciples than John, although Jesus himself did not baptize but only his disciples.  In this verse we again see about baptism Jesus and his disciples along with John was baptizing in the same place. It is not written whether Jesus and his disciples followed the baptism of John. We do not know. The difference between John's baptism and the Christian baptism is given clearly in the Bible. In Acts 19:3 and 4, we read unto what where you baptized? And they said " unto John's baptism". Then Paul said, John verily, baptized with the baptism of repentance saying unto the people they that they should believe on Jesus Christ who To come after him. John was preparing a people for Jesus coming. And they repented of their sins and were baptized to show that they were repented. Je...

John 3:36

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 3:36.  Whoever believes in the son has eternal life. Whoever does not obey the son shall not see life but the wrath of God remains in him.  What a beautiful promise. And also, we see that it also says about the condemnation of those who does not believe in Jesus. The message was told by John the Baptist. Jesus also said the same thing in John 3 16 whoever believes in him that is Jesus shall not perish but have eternal life. In verse 18, Jesus says, he who does not believe has been judged already because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten, Son of God. Whoever does not obey the son shall not see life refers believing as far more than mere mental acceptance, but rather obedience as well. The life here addressed is the life of God, which is imparted to all True believers. Every person in the world knows in his heart, that there is a life after death. Some people call it as mukti or some say to attain Shanti ...

John 3:35

Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 3:35. The father loves the son and as given all things into his hand.  We see in the Bible that Trinity, Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit The love between the father and the son cannot be described by human words. They could not be separated. Jesus, when he carried the sins of this world on the cross, the father has to turn his face from his son. So Jesus cried out in Matthew, 27:46. My God. My God, why have you forsaken me? Jesus was forsaken so that we will not be forsaken by God. Jesus said in John, 15:9 just as the father has loved me. I have also loved you abide in my love. Jesus, love us as the father, loved him. Oh, what a great love that love is, so great is his love for us. That he came into this world. God sent him into this world, and he died upon the cross. What a love Jesus has for you. Yes, he loves you. The father has given all things unto. His hand. What has the father given Jesus? John 5:22 says for not even t...

John 3:34

Image
Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 3:34.  For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure.   Jesus has the mind of God, which is the word of God. Jesus received the word of God, from the father and gave it to the people today. If we are preaching the word of God, we have to hear from God and then deliver the message to the people. The message we have received from the Lord, when the word of God is preached miracles, takes place people's lives are changed.  The phrase for he gives Spirit without measure to him refers, to the fact that all others even the greatest prophets, they received the Holy Spirit by measure. Which was not so with Jesus that which the Holy Spirit would do within his life and Ministry had no human or Earthly limitations. Anything the father told the son to do such as rising, the dead cleansing the lepers calming the strom, changing water into wine, Etc. Could be done without difficulty...

John 3:33

Image
Praise the Lord. Today's verse is John 3:33. Whoever receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true.    It is John's grief that so few accept the message that Jesus brought, But when people do accept it, they attest the fact that in their belief, the word of God is true. In the ancient world, if a man, Makes agreement and agrees to it, he fixed is sealed at the foot of it. The seal was assigned that he agreed with this and regarded it as binding and true. So when people accept the message of Jesus, the affirm and attest that that they believe what Jesus says is true. In the days of Jesus, a few people accepted him and truly followed him, even today only a few people, truly accept him and follow him. That is why Jesus said in Matthew 7:13 and 14 enter through the narrow gate for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small, and the way is narrow, that leads to lif...

John 3:32

Image
Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 3:32  He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony.  Here John says that Jesus has testified what he has seen and what he has heard from the father. What did Jesus testify? He has testified about heaven and also about hell. Luke 16 chapter 19 to 31. Jesus, testified about heaven and Hell. Lazarus, a poor man died and was carried by angels to Abraham's bosom. Israelites believed that heaven was Abraham's bosom because Abraham was there, Hallelujah. But the rich man died and was buried and his soul landed in hades or hell. And we see that it is a place of tournament without water and in agony in the fire, A person from Heaven, cannot go to hell or a person from hell cannot come up to heaven. If someone says that a person from hell can go to Heaven by the prayers of the people of this Earth, it is a lie. It is not given in the Bible. Jesus. Also, speaks about heaven and Hell in Matthe...

John 3:28

Image
Praise the Lord. Today's verse is from John 3 28. You yourself bear  Me witness that I said I am not the Christ. But I have been sent before him.  After the last book of the Old Testament, Malachi. 400 years has passed and there was no prophets. People were waiting for Messiah to come into this world. At that time, John the Baptist started preaching about repentance and they thought that he is the Messiah or Christ.  John chapter 1, we see the religious leaders and the Pharisees came to John asking him if he was the Messiah, he had clearly told them that he is not the Messiah or Christ in this verse again he says I am not the Christ but I have been sent before him. John the Baptist boldly proclaimed that he is not the Christ. Not only does a statement Proclaim his denial but even more it says that he knows another who is the Christ that is Jesus. I have been sent before him proclaims that, the fact that he is under Jesus's Authority and not the authority of th...
