1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:13,280 Welcome to the Gospel Truth Podcast. I'm your host Dylan and my co-host. 2 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,400 Hello, I'm Jason. 3 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:22,720 Today we'll be talking about does the Bible claim Jesus is God? Let's get into it. 4 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,800 Ooh, this sounds like a good topic. 5 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:32,120 It's good to be. I mean, I think you've heard a lot about it, like where people are, you know, 6 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:41,800 questioning, asking what is this? Does the Bible back it up? What Jesus said? 7 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:50,000 The claims that us as Christians make that Jesus is God, that they are one. 8 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,800 Yeah. 9 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,800 Cool. How are you doing, by the way? 10 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:57,800 Well, yeah. 11 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,800 We usually ask that question when we start. 12 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:09,800 It's been a while since we've recorded. That's just to do with life getting crazy. 13 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:19,800 Starting a new job and then leaving that job and then starting another job while balancing, being engaged, 14 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:28,800 getting a wedding planned and life in general. Yeah, I've been good. 15 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:43,800 I'm going to be getting married here in a little bit and start another new job because then you didn't make more money. 16 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:53,800 And then doing that and busy with church. So that is what is basically new with me. 17 00:01:53,800 --> 00:02:00,800 Yeah. Awesome. Well, I definitely will say congratulations right at the bat because, you know, it's exciting. 18 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,800 You just make sure you keep your calendar clear, you know. 19 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,800 Yes, August 5th. 20 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:13,800 You remember the date because I got it down. I got it down. I got it down. 21 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,800 So, no, it's an important date. 22 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:23,800 You just had your, what is it, your 7th? No, 8th year anniversary? 23 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:29,800 No, you had it first the right time. It was 7th. Yeah. 7th year anniversary. 24 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:37,800 Wow. Feels like so long ago since we were tracking Yosemite. I mean, at your wedding. 25 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:44,800 Right. Yeah, I know it's good. We had a good time and we went to visit family in Santa Maria. 26 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:49,800 And I know I didn't get to stop and visit you, but I was only there for 48 hours. 27 00:02:49,800 --> 00:03:02,800 Okay. It's all good. It's something that we can come back and visit and say hello to friends next time. 28 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:09,800 And yesterday we went out to dinner for our anniversary because it was a week ago, 29 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,800 but we wanted to have time with just ourselves rather than with family. 30 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,800 So we went to this really nice sushi place that we enjoy. Yeah. 31 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:28,800 And then I'm really excited about today's episode because I see it quite often where it's like, Jesus never claimed to be God. 32 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,800 Oh, the Bible doesn't say he's God. Oh, he was just a prophet. Oh, well. 33 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:39,800 Yeah, I've heard that a lot from people that follow the Islamic faith. 34 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,800 I'm Jewish, too. Oh, a lot of faith say Jesus was just a prophet. 35 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:52,800 Yeah. And in the Hebrew, yeah, the Jewish, they say that, you know, 36 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:59,800 but there's a lot of things that also back up from Old Testament to New Testament where they prophesied what had happened. 37 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:08,800 So that's why I always think of that, because there's a lot of things to do with like, you know, even will it come to the Holy Spirit? 38 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:14,800 I think of that, too. Just the prophecy that comes with that, you know. 39 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:22,800 We definitely should touch up on one of these episodes should touch up on like the Holy Spirit and what does it mean to have the Holy Spirit? 40 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,800 Oh, yeah, I agree. That'd be a good one. 41 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:33,800 Now we just got to lock down. We'll lock down our scheduling so we can actually do this. 42 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,800 I think this will actually I mean, I don't know what your schedule would say, but we'll have to talk about that separately. We'll talk. We'll talk. 43 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,800 Yeah, we get this into a we always say it, too. 44 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,800 We didn't really get that first time just busts it out. 45 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:52,800 But I think it's better that we actually just set aside a time like we were like a Bible study and do it. 46 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,800 But yeah, so I think what we wanted to talk about first was what we wanted to get to John, right? 47 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,800 John, John, it's a good start. 48 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:21,800 Like John has three references to Jesus himself speaking and talking about him saying, I am and I was and I am and the same I am that the statements used in Exodus. 49 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:32,800 Where 314 where God himself spoke to Moses and said, I am, you know, it's a good start, a good starting point for sure. 50 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:40,800 Oh, yeah. I mean, gosh, let's say 812. I think that's a start with 812. 51 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:52,800 OK, let me just pull that up on the old bibliotech bibliotech. Where did it go? I had it, you know, doing everything. 52 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:58,800 I will preface why you're looking. I will preface why you're looking like it's important to know the context. 53 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:06,800 So each each one of these verses we go over, I'll help fill in context because I think context is very important. 54 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:13,800 It's key. So like we'll look at a couple of verses out of John eight, like verse 12, 24 and 58. 55 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,800 But in that context, it kind of give you an idea of why you're getting the verse up. 56 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:25,800 It's 12 to 30 in John eight is it's inclusive of Jesus saying, I am. 57 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:32,800 And it's one of the seven statements times in the New Testament where he talks about saying, I am. 58 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:40,800 Jesus refers reference to light, which you'll see was probably playing off like ritual performed during the Feast of Booths. 59 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:46,800 If you don't know what that is, where lamps would be lit using wicks made from the robes of priests. 60 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,800 This continues a dialogue of Chapter seven, picking up where John 52 left off. 61 00:06:50,800 --> 00:07:01,800 But the exchange between Jesus and the Pharisees are escalating and in part showing that Jesus was not afraid directly to castigate those who misled the people, basically. 62 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,800 So that's kind of the context of this whole section. Yeah, I forget. 63 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:24,800 I honestly was a pastor, Jr. from Folk Gospel. They should always say, you said it's important once you're going with the verse to know what's going on in this chapter and also read the couple of verses before the couple after you get the full content. 64 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:37,800 So what's going on? Right. Because especially if people are just, you know, some people like to say, pick the verse and be like, oh, you know, I always think of the wives submit to your husbands. 65 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:43,800 Oh, yeah. But then, you know, before it's, you know, I just want to say, yeah, listen to your husband. 66 00:07:43,800 --> 00:08:01,800 But it also talks about the bride church and, you know, husbands, you should be leading like, you know, like God is the lead of the church and, you know, and how wives submit to them if they're following the Lord. 67 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:09,800 And, you know, stuff like that where it talks and like the man should be doing his job, especially the woman, not just listen to your husband. 68 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:17,800 Right. And we will and we will talk about relationships too, because I think that's an important one. 69 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:24,800 One of the topics that we need to talk about, because a lot of times people will take those like you just said, take those verses out of context, submit, submit, submit. 70 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:36,800 And it's very clear in Corinthians as well as a couple other passages where when you're in a marriage or equal parts, it's not one above the other, like top and bottom. 71 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:41,800 It's equal parts side to side. So, but that's exactly it. 72 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:50,800 It's like verses taken out of context without reading the whole passage or reading the whole chapter, because it's very easy to just take a verse and say, oh, yep, this is the verse. 73 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,800 Jesus, Jesus, cry baby. 74 00:08:53,800 --> 00:09:10,800 That's like where I always think of to, you know, like, I think we're going to come from where I've always messed with you and like you say a verse and like when you pull it up, that would like you accountability, which is 100 percent what you need as a believer. 75 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,800 You need somebody to call you out. I mean, I am Chopra's iron. 76 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:29,800 And that's something that needs to be done because you have to have somebody, you know, making you better. And like, you know, people call you out on the Bible and they say, well, what does it say in the Bible that Jesus ever claimed that? 77 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:44,800 You know, I guess the reason we do this is the equip listeners so they know are those who have the question are have those, you know, thoughts like, well, where does it ever say that? 78 00:09:44,800 --> 00:10:06,800 We always say we're not trying to be like we're right. We're better because we are not. We are just we're just humans like the rest of you. We all, you know, all put our pants on the same way, two legs at a time. I mean, so I mean, you've you reference Proverbs 2717 where it says iron, iron sharpens iron and one man sharpens another. 79 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:14,800 I mean, you got James 516 where it says, therefore confessor sends to one another and pray for one another. 80 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:15,800 Right. 81 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,800 16 seconds into the thing. 82 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,800 James was brought up. 83 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:26,800 Right. 84 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:43,800 So I'm with you. I'm with you. It's like exactly. It's just we keep each other accountable. We we it's like the Barons in the Bible. They're like, hey, you're not preaching that correctly. This is what the scripture actually says. And he was like, wow, thank you. That's important to know. 85 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,800 So yeah. 86 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:57,800 So yeah, did you get to I mean, this is just a good starting place, John 812 and 824. Yeah. And then 824. Yeah. 87 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,800 So it's it's Jesus is the light of the world. 88 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:13,800 Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won't have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life. 89 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,800 And the Pharisees go ahead and they are like, are you making those things about yourself? 90 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,800 So test is not valid. 91 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,800 So even so he is claiming that. 92 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:29,800 And even back then, so not just now, even back then, there was still that. 93 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,800 Are you saying that you are God? 94 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:39,800 So there's even questions about going back then. This is nothing new. 95 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:45,800 Yeah, this is the second of this is the second of John's seven I am statements. 96 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,800 We'll go to the first one, but this is the second time. 97 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:55,800 And the first came when Jesus was preaching to the crowd in Capernaum the morning after feeding thousands with a small boy's lunch. 98 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,800 That's John six thirty five. 99 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:05,800 But later in the same chapter, Jesus will and does will show you, but uses a slightly different version of the idea. 100 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:11,800 Not part of the primary seven I am statements resulting in rage from the Pharisees, obviously. 101 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:18,800 But this one, like I said, is during the Feast of Booths in Jerusalem. 102 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,800 And Jesus has already used festival rituals as analogies for his roles as Messiah. 103 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,800 You see that in John seven. 104 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:33,800 And in addition, light was a powerful metaphor in Hebrew thinking. 105 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,800 You can see that in Psalms eighty four and Malachi four. 106 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:48,800 Light for Jewish people was a ultimate ideal, like a representational like salvation knowledge or anything good, really. 107 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:54,800 And Jesus, the claim to be the light of the world was not just a oh, yeah, I'm a good guy. 108 00:12:54,800 --> 00:13:02,800 It's not just that that in that context was the claim to equality, like equal with God. 109 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:12,800 And even in the Greek of this passage indicates Jesus claimed to be the light, not just a light, but the light, 110 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:17,800 which explicitly claims he is the single solitary source of light. 111 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,800 So that that's an important context for this verse specifically. 112 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,800 I just want to bring that in. 113 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,800 No, that's awesome. I agree. It's important. 114 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:36,800 To me. I lost the words. 115 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:43,800 I think people like read that and there's like, oh, yeah, it's just the light or no, he's making a bolder claims. 116 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:49,800 There's so many things that go to with like the way the Jews did things in the ceremonies. 117 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,800 It's not important. Those are to the culture of of that. 118 00:13:53,800 --> 00:14:04,800 Yeah. You know, just, you know, today, in charge of talking about Pentecost and the Holy Spirit and how important because Penta mean 50 days, 119 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:08,800 which is 50 days after Passover. 120 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,800 And it's supposed to be a time of new new crops and new life and stuff. 121 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:21,800 And that's the thing that the new, you know, the Holy Spirit comes and there's these gifts, these new creations that are coming. 122 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:39,800 And I think there's a lot of things that God is uses with those holidays and uses with the work, you know, with those things that it just it just to me is like a verification of God has a plan and his way he does things is so unique. 123 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,800 And, you know, and it's pretty cool how he lines things up like that. 124 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:48,800 I think this just shows it to what you were just saying. 125 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,800 Yeah. So here's another one. 126 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:53,800 John eight, which you already in. 127 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,800 So you could probably get this fast. 128 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,800 Verse twenty twenty four, if I remember correctly. 129 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:10,800 Yeah, that is why I said you will be dead in your sins for unless you believe that I am that I am who I claim to be. 130 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,800 You will die in your sins. 131 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:19,800 And what's he's who are you been amended and he he replies. 132 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:25,800 The one I have always claimed to be. 133 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:34,800 That that's that's that's the one we claim to be like he's saying I've always claimed to be. 134 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:49,800 That like the son of God, I am I am the son. I am one I have have much to say about you and much to condemn, but I won't. 135 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,800 Or I say only I have heard from the one who sent me. 136 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,800 Yep. He is completely truthful. 137 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:04,800 So even though he's saying I have the power to condemn you, I have this because I am God. 138 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:11,800 For I have said it, he he sent me like I am sent by him and he is completely truthful. 139 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:19,800 So he seems like I have been sent by him and this is the truth, because he is truthful. 140 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:28,800 Well, it's just it's good. It's just it's it's it's there just backs it up. He's claiming anything like I've always claimed this. 141 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:33,800 Anybody you have a doubt, you can have your doubts, but it says it clearly here. 142 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:39,800 I am always claimed this. What about verse 58? Same chapter. 143 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:48,800 Fifty eight. That's like the very last one, dude. Yeah, let's say you think nine is, but I tell you the truth before Abraham was even born. 144 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:56,800 I am. Yep. At this point, they start picking up some stones to throw at him. 145 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,800 But Jesus was hidden from them and left the temple. 146 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:04,800 Mm hmm. That's where the craziness. 147 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:12,800 Yeah, like because it was before, says the people said you are even 50 years old. 148 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,800 How can you say you have seen Abraham? Mm hmm. 149 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:21,800 Because your father, your hand, were Joyce when he looked upon my coming. 150 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,800 He saw it was I was glad he saw it and was glad. 151 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:31,800 So this is it. Abraham saw the coming of Jesus. Right. 152 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:37,800 And if you were like, you aren't even old enough, you're not, you know, you're not even 50, 50. 153 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,800 OK. You know. 154 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:51,800 And it's like what Jesus I tell you, I was there because I am saying that I, you know, like that's putting back to the word. 155 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,800 You know, isn't it funny? 156 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,800 Like, yeah, clueless, they are in this in this moment. 157 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,800 Like, maybe it's just because we're looking back and reading what they're saying. 158 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,800 But he was like, before Abraham was, I am. And they're like, you're not old enough for that. 159 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,800 Like, they don't get it. They're just like, it's like right over their head. 160 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:16,800 And he's just like, yeah, it's like this is an ID. 161 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,800 It goes very truly. I tell you. 162 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,800 Mm hmm. Before Abraham was. 163 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:29,800 I am. Mm hmm. Like I was born and I am. 164 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:37,800 It's like before he was born, I am. And then it says he slipped away from the temple grounds. 165 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,800 And was hidden from them. 166 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:47,800 Different translations, but I think it would have probably been more of the NLT where he just was hidden from them. 167 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,800 Like a mask of the Holy Spirit or something came over them. They couldn't see him. 168 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,800 Yeah, most of the. 169 00:18:55,800 --> 00:19:00,800 Like you said earlier, too, you know, it didn't say that. 170 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:11,800 You know, it's not my time, you know, like when I'm going to pass, maybe that was maybe that's something else that I read earlier. 171 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:17,800 Yeah, that that whole thing of him escaping was like or him slipping out. 172 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:24,800 It's most of the terminology there is just like he escaped like he escaped. 173 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:30,800 Got away from them, but no, this is a good point because you made that point in the course of all his teachings here. 174 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:42,800 Jesus claimed that he had equal power to God, which is in John five thirty six equal judgment to God, which in John eight sixteen, which you read equal authority to God, which is in John sixteen or seven sixteen actually. 175 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:51,800 And then he says he's been sent by God, which is in John eight eighteen and approved of by God in John six twenty seven. 176 00:19:51,800 --> 00:20:01,800 Consistently over and over and over, he says it consistently that he is God in the flesh. 177 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:07,800 And it's consistent here in just one chapter of the Bible. 178 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:12,800 And there's more, obviously, since you're in John eight. 179 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,800 What about go to John 10? 180 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,800 There are thirty thirty. 181 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,800 I'm pretty sure thirty. 182 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,800 Thirty. OK, yeah, John 10, 30. 183 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:28,800 Yeah. And the father. 184 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,800 I father are one. 185 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:38,800 And then it says and then the version says the father and I are one. 186 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:43,800 So and then it says again, the Jewish people picked up some stones again. 187 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:50,800 And then he's like, I haven't shown you many good words for my father for which of those do you stone me? 188 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,800 This is like we talk about I've shown you so many good things that I've done. 189 00:20:54,800 --> 00:21:01,800 You know. So it's just yeah, because it's interesting in John 10, 22 to 42. 190 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:10,800 The context here is it happens a few months after the controversy described in Chapter nine and through the first half of Chapter 10. 191 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:19,800 But Jesus is cornered here in an overt threat by the same religious Pharisee leaders that have been cast castigating for years. 192 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,800 He echoes the metaphors of sheep and shepherd. 193 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,800 He employs after giving sight to a blind man like the good works that you just mentioned. 194 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:35,800 And he he points out that all his teaching and miracles are consistent with the predictions of the Messiah from the Old Testament. 195 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:41,800 And they refused to accept it, obviously, and they decided to try to kill him, stone him to death. 196 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:47,800 And again, he avoids and escapes. But that's just the context of what's going on here. 197 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:54,800 Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Crazy. Yeah. 198 00:21:54,800 --> 00:22:06,800 And then so another passage, you can go one chapter more, Chapter 11. Yeah. 199 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:15,800 And 20 verse 25. So the 20th, John 11, 25. Yeah. 200 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:25,800 So this one. Your brother will rise again, he says, the Martha answered, I know he will rise in the resurrection of the state. 201 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:30,800 Jesus says to her, I am the resurrection and the life. 202 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:39,800 The one who believes in me will live, even though they don't. And whoever lives by believing in me will never die. 203 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:51,800 Do you believe this? She goes to say, yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Messiah, the son of God, who is the come into the world. 204 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:53,800 Right. So that's it. That's a good point. 205 00:22:53,800 --> 00:23:05,800 So the context here, for those who don't know, John 11, 17 to 27 describes Jesus' encounter with Martha, which is Lazarus' 206 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,800 brother, and by the time or sister. 207 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:15,800 Yeah, yeah, sorry. But by the time Jesus got the word of Lazarus' illness, his friend had already died. 208 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:20,800 Right. And just delayed a further two days before coming to see the family. 209 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,800 Martha is both heartbroken and resigned. 210 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,800 She is confident that her brother will see eternal resurrection. 211 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,800 And Jesus confirms his role in salvation as he comforts her. 212 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:38,800 Right. And this you can see, and this is actually the fifth of seven I am statements by Jesus in the gospel. 213 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:48,800 Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. And then the following passage, Jesus will meet with Martha and Lazarus' sister and Mary, 214 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,800 expressing his sorrows for their pain. Right. 215 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,800 And that's what you kind of went over and read. 216 00:23:54,800 --> 00:24:02,800 And it's important because in this particular I am statement, it puts a very personal emphasis on human salvation, 217 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,800 which is unique among other claims about eternity. 218 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:14,800 The gospel explains that the ultimate fulfillment of human desire is a person, is not knowledge or accomplishment or some state of being. 219 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:23,800 It's the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ, which you can read that in 2 Corinthians 4, 6. 220 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:34,800 Jesus does not make a claim to speak about the life he identified and the life, which is John 14, 6. 221 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:42,800 Yeah. Yeah, because I'm just reading this right here. 222 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:52,800 Because Jesus, you know, Jesus has power over life and death, as well as the power to like, forgive us some of sins because he created life. 223 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:58,800 So he can restore it and whoever believes in Jesus has spiritual life and death. 224 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,800 He cannot conquer or diminish in any way. 225 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:09,800 So when we realize the power and like the wonder of this is offered to us, it's crazy. 226 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,800 Like, how can we not commit ourselves, our lives to him? 227 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:24,800 Like, it's just because those who believe in wonder and assure and have like the certainty that we have. 228 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:32,800 So it's because like it says, you know, I live in you, you all you also live. 229 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,800 Like, it's crazy. 230 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,800 Right. Yeah. 231 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,800 It's. 232 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:46,800 So, yeah, it is crazy. And this is just, again, powerful. 233 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:54,800 Right. Right. Opie. Opie. 234 00:25:54,800 --> 00:26:01,800 No, that's true. We're actually I have a couple of verses here written down. 235 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:07,800 Can you go to John 1, 1 and then I can read the other verse I have 1, 1. 236 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,800 That's like very first one. 237 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:18,800 Like in the beginning was the word and the word was God and the word was God. 238 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,800 Yeah. The word was God. 239 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,800 God was the word was God. 240 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,800 And he is with the beginning through him. 241 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,800 All things are made without him. Nothing has been made. 242 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,800 And he was life in the life of all my time. 243 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:38,800 The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it. 244 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,800 That was quick. 245 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:46,800 Yes, that the word comes flesh. 246 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:54,800 It's interesting because I can just check that kind of like a summary of the chapter itself, like the first chapter, John introduces Jesus as the word. 247 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,800 Right. It was from the Greek word logos. 248 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:05,800 It just clearly describes Jesus as identical to God after this prologue that you just basically read. 249 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:06,800 Yeah. 250 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,800 Well, you just hold that real quick. Yeah. 251 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:18,800 Because verse nine, the true light that gives light to everyone as was coming into the world. 252 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,800 I just think about the light because you mentioned light. 253 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,800 Yeah, that's that's good. 254 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,800 But yeah, this passage clearly describes Jesus as identical to God and co-creator with God. 255 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,800 And the verse summarizes Jesus ministry and mission on earth. 256 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:44,800 And the passage also explains how John the Baptist, a different John, obviously than the John from John one, was sent ahead of Christ to prepare for his revival. 257 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,800 Right. Yeah. 258 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:58,800 And it's it's cool to see that the definition of the word, the logos was used as the word of God, like his actual voice, like his word. 259 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:15,800 And that was the first of John's seven names for Jesus, which the word, the rest of the gospel is John's attempt to prove this through the various forms of evidence in particular, Jesus's miracles and how he lived his life, et cetera. 260 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:29,800 The first verses you read right there of John may believe that it's like about God or something, but it established that it is God and his word, which is one the same. 261 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,800 It's just was became flesh. Right. 262 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,800 Which he says was Jesus. 263 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,800 What's the title of the word? 264 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:49,800 Yeah, yeah, it was really important concept for sure to understand what was being said and how. 265 00:28:49,800 --> 00:29:01,800 So, well, the other verse I was going to bring up, because this is a verse that a lot of people bring up to contradict any idea of of God and Jesus not being God. 266 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:09,800 And it's like, oh, this one verse is the reason why he's not God in the flesh or God and as the word living amongst us. 267 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:23,800 This is the one verse that a lot of you will see a lot of people in Jewish faith that who don't see the New Testament or Jesus as God, they'll use this verse or Muslims who say, oh, Jesus was just a prophet. 268 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,800 This is a very consistent verse that they use. 269 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:31,800 So if you want to read it, it's Mark 10, 18. 270 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,800 If you mark. 271 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:39,800 Luke was Mark what Mark 10, 18. 272 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,800 10. 273 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,800 To the team. 274 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,800 Why do you call me good? 275 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,800 Jesus answered, no one is good, except for God alone. 276 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,800 You know, the Quam is you shall not murder you should not commit adultery. 277 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,800 You shall steal or not give false testimony. 278 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,800 You shall not defraud or honor your mother. 279 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:11,800 And then teacher, he declared all these things and I've kept them since I was a boy. 280 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:19,800 So to him and legend, one thing you lack, he said, go sell everything you own to the poor and you'll have treasure in heaven. 281 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,800 Come follow me because this is the rich and the key. 282 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:30,800 There is the rich guy was like, hey, I want to follow you because he felt like to his knees. 283 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,800 Said, good teacher, I want to turn life. 284 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,800 I want to follow you. 285 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,800 So read the one verse before. 286 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,800 Yeah. 287 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,800 So as Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. 288 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:46,800 Good teacher. 289 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:52,800 Yes. What must I do to inherit internal life? 290 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,800 And then he said, why do you call me good? 291 00:30:55,800 --> 00:31:01,800 Jesus answered, no one is good, except for God alone. 292 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:06,800 Basically, see, it's not saying he's not insane. 293 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,800 He's saying because he sees calling him aside, knowing that he is. 294 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:18,800 He's basically he knows that he is a good teacher, that he is, you know, he is the son of God. 295 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,800 And that's what he's like. Why do you call me good? 296 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,800 No one is going to suffer God alone. 297 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:28,800 He's almost saying like, yeah, you know, I'm God because you're calling me good. 298 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:29,800 Is that what you call me good? 299 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:34,800 Or is it you call me good because, you know, because of what I'm doing? 300 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,800 Or do you actually know? 301 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,800 Right. And it's it's yeah. 302 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:45,800 And it's like it's interesting because like he asked him like what characterize someone is good. 303 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:50,800 Right. And then if someone were completely good, what would they say about them? 304 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:55,800 If only God is perfectly good and a man is perfectly good and the man would be God. 305 00:31:55,800 --> 00:32:02,800 That's it's possible that Jesus is trying to like quickly lead the man to this conclusion here. 306 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:03,800 Yes, it's possible. 307 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:09,800 But like you can see that he takes great pains to hide his identity from like even his disciples. 308 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,800 Like you could see that Mark eight, twenty nine to thirty and nine nine. 309 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:22,800 And more likely for this, the brevity of the comment, the comment and the quick change suggests that Jesus is giving the man something to think on later. 310 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,800 Why do you call me good? Are you you calling me God? 311 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:30,800 If you are, are you prepared to listen to me like that kind of setup here? 312 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:39,800 Because it was very common in that day for a layman to ask a religious leader such as like a rabbi scribe or Pharisee what he must do to be good. 313 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:47,800 Right. And they had to follow teachings and the Torah and all this stuff. 314 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:57,800 And instead you can see Jesus, on the other hand, tells the man to go back to the mosaic law as God gave it, which Mark ten, nineteen, the next verse that you read. 315 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:06,800 And don't worry about the traditions of man, which you can actually see Mark seven, the beginning of the whole chapter. 316 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:11,800 The man implies that Jesus, as a good teacher, must know how to receive eternal life. 317 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,800 And Jesus points out that only God is good. 318 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:21,800 And he gave the mosaic law to teach that Jews how to be holy, because at that time he hasn't died yet. 319 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:30,800 Also, so the acceptance of Jesus's salvation for the death that he paid has not even happened at the point yet. 320 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:34,800 So he's trying to give him kind of insight. 321 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,800 Like if you're calling me this, like are you prepared to listen to me? 322 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,800 And all this stuff is happening as teachings and writings and doctrine. 323 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,800 And it's being written in front of this man. 324 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:50,800 So it's given him that that idea to like, think about this, keep this on your heart, make sure that you're paying attention to this. 325 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:58,800 And really give it some thought, because this is going to be important. 326 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,800 Yeah. 327 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:10,800 I think it shows there, too, that it's not it's not him denying it, but it's going like, do you know what you're signing up for? 328 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:11,800 He's like, do you know what you're saying? 329 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,800 Because if you do, are you willing to follow? 330 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:20,800 And I think that's why he, you know, just actually says that. 331 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:26,800 I believe he walks away sad. 332 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,800 Jesus goes, so everything at the man's face. 333 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:34,800 And this man's at this, the man's face fell. 334 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:39,800 He went away sad because he had great wealth. 335 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:45,800 And then because it's saying you have to be ready to give up everything to follow God. 336 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:50,800 Like, you know. 337 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,800 Many talks about how the whole human children, how hard it is after the kingdom. 338 00:34:54,800 --> 00:35:00,800 They defer a camp when they go through the eye of the needle, then for some who is rich after the kingdom. 339 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,800 Yeah, yeah, exactly. 340 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:09,800 Which is, you know. 341 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:16,800 Multiple things that's referring to right there, too, because it talks, you know, in Jerusalem, there's these giant gates. 342 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,800 And they have it closed and there's a little side gate. 343 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,800 It's like, you know, they have to go through and it was small. 344 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,800 You can't even really fit a can barely fit a camel through there. 345 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:38,800 And then you can take all the things off of the camel because you'd have your camel packed and the way to get that camel through is to take off all things that was carrying. 346 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,800 Right. And with that, then you can have a camel go through. 347 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:53,800 And that's the reference to that it's making is that you have to remove everything from the camel's back in order to get it through the eye of this needle, which is the reference that it's making for those who live during that time. 348 00:35:53,800 --> 00:36:02,800 Right. It's in context. When he makes references to things, it's good to know the context of the references that are being made to. 349 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:08,800 Yeah, that's right. For the time. It's important. 350 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:26,800 Yeah, there's there's I mean, there's plenty of verses in the Gospels. Like I said, there's main there's seven main ones that he is making a reference point, say, like, I am. And that is very distinct reason to pay attention to that. 351 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,800 It's like, OK, well, he is saying this and he says it multiple times. 352 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:39,800 And it's not just a one time done thing where he's like, oh, yeah, I am. You're what? Yeah. 353 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,800 He's consistent. That's for sure. 354 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:52,800 Yeah. And then so like another example of this is Matthew 10, 1040 Matthew 1040 says, 355 00:36:52,800 --> 00:37:00,800 The one who welcomes you welcomes me and the one who welcomes me welcomes him who sent me. 356 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:07,800 And another word for welcomes is receives that has been used in most translations use the word receives. 357 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:15,800 But the idea of welcomes and receives, it's that you are you are choosing to and welcoming was a positive. 358 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:23,800 So it wasn't like reluctantly or just like, I guess it's it's with good heart, you're accepting or receiving or welcoming. 359 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,800 And that's that's something that taken mind here. 360 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:32,800 But the context for the section, Matthew 1040 to 42 is the context. 361 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:38,800 It closes out Jesus instructions to the apostles as he sends them first to the people of Israel. 362 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:47,800 He says, any anyone who receives the apostles believe in their message about him, Jesus will also be receiving him. 363 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,800 Right. And the one who sent him, they'll share it. 364 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:59,800 They share in the apostles, those who receive a profit or righteousness person share in their rewards of like receiving him. 365 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:06,800 And those who give a cup of cold water to one of those these little ones, it's the next verse. 366 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:12,800 That's the whole context in this case, meaning the apostles will not lose their reward of eternity in the kingdom of heaven. 367 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:20,800 So accepting the message in being given by the apostles is accepting what Jesus taught them. 368 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:30,800 So he was setting up the authority that the apostles were teaching about under Christ because of the message that he was giving them. 369 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:38,800 And he set the premise to say, like, what they're talking about is truth and it lines up with the rest of the Bible and the scripture. 370 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,800 And it doesn't contradict. And I am who I say I am. 371 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:49,800 And I'm sending these people out to teach others about my message. 372 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:54,800 Right. Because there's no Facebook or Twitter texting or calling back then. 373 00:38:54,800 --> 00:39:03,800 So no, there is definitely not that I really like Matthew 10 40, though, because anyone who receives he receives me. 374 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:11,800 And I think of that thing back in like in John 12, like 44, because he just shouts to the crowd. 375 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:18,800 If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but you are trusting but also God who sent me. 376 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:26,800 You know, I was sent by him and then in John 13 20, I tell you the truth. 377 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,800 And when he welcomes my message is welcoming me. 378 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:34,800 Anyone who welcomes me and welcoming is welcoming the father who sent me. 379 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:41,800 It's basically just. Yeah. Yeah. It's good stuff. 380 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:46,800 It is good stuff. And you can see that, you know, the apostles will go out into the world at this point. 381 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:53,800 And in the name of Jesus, under his specific authority and those who received the apostles will in truth be receiving him as well. 382 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,800 Because Jesus also acts on earth under the authority of the father. 383 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:14,800 So whoever receives the apostles will also be receiving God the father because the apostles were chosen to bring the word into the world or bring the message, I should say, of Christ into the world and who he was and the redemption quality of his sacrifice made for the people. 384 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:34,800 And so that was a very important authority given to the apostles to go out and say, you are sent like to share this message because obviously the idea of, you know, communication was rough in this time frame. 385 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:41,800 Oh, yeah. I mean, not all the disciples got to. I mean, not well, not Jesus. 386 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:48,800 No, you make the cut. No. 387 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:54,800 I mean, he made it crazy. He like stabbed in the back a little bit. It's fine. 388 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,800 Oh, Jason. 389 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:11,800 Damn. Look, the way it worked out is the way it worked out and it worked out. He's just he's just hanging around. Oh, my gosh. 390 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,800 None of those jokes. OK. 391 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:14,800 Horrible. 392 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:16,800 That's terrible. 393 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:35,800 We do not condone any of that. As I tell my kids at youth group every single Wednesday and stuff, if you are going through depression, suicidal thoughts, anything like that. 394 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:46,800 I'm like, I say, like, there's nothing new that is underneath God's green earth that we have not gone through. Even me or, you know, one of the help my helpers. 395 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:53,800 I'm like, if we need to talk about it, we are here. It's not a joke. It's a serious thing. 396 00:41:53,800 --> 00:42:07,800 And we stand by that. And if you guys need prayer for anything like that, reach out to us on socials and stuff. We are here to help. We are here to pray for you to be there for you. 397 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:15,800 Mental health is a serious thing. And, you know, we're there. We're there for you. 398 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:21,800 As after we just make the jokes about the whole Judas being dead thing. 399 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:28,800 It's good. I have I'm working on a website for us. So we'll have a website called Gospel Truth Podcast dot com. 400 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,800 Or I think that's what it was. 401 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,800 Wait, what was it? 402 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,800 The Gospel Truth Podcast. 403 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,800 Let me make sure before we end this episode. 404 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,800 Yeah. 405 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:57,800 Double check on that.
