To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR
From; GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper,
that He may be with you forever. [John 14:16]
Subject: MY WORD
John 6:59–63 (AMP) 59 He said these
things in a synagogue while He was teaching at Capernaum. 60 When
His disciples heard this, many of them said, This is a hard and
difficult and strange saying (an offensive and unbearable message). Who
can stand to hear it? [Who can be expected to listen to such teaching?] 61
But Jesus, knowing within Himself that His disciples were complaining and
protesting and grumbling about it, said to them: Is this a stumbling
block and an offense to you? [Does this upset and displease and shock
and scandalize you?] 62 What then [will be your reaction] if you
should see the Son of Man ascending to [the place] where He was before? 63
It is the Spirit Who gives life [He is
the Life-giver]; the flesh conveys no benefit whatever [there is no profit in
it]. The words (truths) that I have been speaking to you are spirit and life.
John 3:5–12 (The Living Bible) 5 Jesus
replied, “What I am telling you so earnestly is this: Unless one is born of
water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God. 6 Men can only reproduce human life, but the
Holy Spirit gives new life from heaven; 7 so don’t be surprised at
my statement that you must be born again! 8 Just as you can hear
the wind but can’t tell where it comes from or where it will go next, so it is
with the Spirit. We do not know on whom he will next bestow this life from
heaven.” 9 “What do you mean?” Nicodemus asked. 10 Jesus
replied, “You, a respected Jewish teacher, and yet you don’t understand these
things? I am telling you what I know and have seen—and yet you won’t believe
me. 12
John 6:64–7:3 (NASB95) 64 “But there are some of you
who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who
did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him. 65 And He was
saying, “For this reason I have said to you, that no one can come to Me unless
it has been granted him from the Father.” 66 As a result of this
many of His disciples withdrew and were not walking with Him anymore. 67
So Jesus said to the twelve, “You do not want to go away also, do you?” 68
Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom
shall we go? You have words of eternal life. 69 “We have believed
and have come to know that You are the Holy One of God.” 70 Jesus
answered them, “Did I Myself not choose you, the twelve, and yet one of
you is a devil?” 71 Now He meant Judas the son of Simon
Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray Him. 1 After
these things Jesus was walking in Galilee, for He was unwilling to walk in
Judea because the Jews were seeking to kill Him. 2 Now the feast of
the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was near. 3 Therefore His brothers
said to Him, “Leave here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples also may see
Your works which You are doing.
John 7:3–18 (The Living Bible) 3 and
Jesus’ brothers urged him to go to Judea for the celebration. “Go where more
people can see your miracles!” they scoffed. 4 “You can’t be famous
when you hide like this! If you’re so great, prove it to the world!” 5
For even his brothers didn’t believe in him. 6 Jesus replied, “It is
not the right time for me to go now. But you can go anytime and it will make no
difference, 7 for the world can’t hate you; but it does hate me, because I accuse it of sin and evil. 8
You go on, and I’ll come later when it is the right time.” 9 So he
remained in Galilee. 10 But after his brothers had left for the
celebration, then he went too, though secretly, staying out of the public eye. 11
The Jewish leaders tried to find him at the celebration and kept asking if
anyone had seen him. 12 There was a lot of discussion about him
among the crowds. Some said, “He’s a wonderful man,” while others said, “No,
he’s duping the public.” 13 But no one had the courage to speak out
for him in public for fear of reprisals from the Jewish leaders. 14 Then,
midway through the festival, Jesus went up to the Temple and preached openly. 15
The Jewish leaders were surprised when they heard him. “How can he know so much when he’s never been to our schools?” they
asked. 16 So Jesus told them, “I’m not teaching you my own thoughts,
but those of God who sent me. 17 If any of you really determines
to do God’s will, then you will certainly know whether my teaching is from God
or is merely my own. 18 Anyone
presenting his own ideas is looking for praise for himself, but anyone seeking
to honor the one who sent him is a good and true person.
[Please
Note: Always Read the Word of God in
Context asking the Holy Spirit of the Living God to give you the
interpretation. 2 Peter 1:16–21 (Williams)
16 For it was not mere
stories of fancy that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17
For when He received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the
majestic glory there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my
Beloved, in whom I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves
borne from heaven while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19
So we have the message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
