Attempt to kill Jesus

Attempt to kill Jesus – John 8:21-59

                We are going to spend three days on this rather lengthy passage.  It contains so many nuggets of truth.  Jesus Has been teaching on the Mount of Olives and Himself and the Father.

1.       Jesus says than man is below and that he is from above.  If a person does believe in Jesus Christ they will certainly die in their sins.
2.       Jesus is who claims to be and Jesus had much to say about the judgment that was to come on the world.
3.       Jesus will be lifted up and He will only speak what the Father has told Him to speak.
4.       The one that does what Christ wants will never be alone.  If we hold to His teaching we really are His disciples.  We shall know the truth and the truth will set us free. 
5.       Everyone who sins is a slave to sin.   A slave has no permanent place to stay but the Son has a place, so when the Son set us free we will be free indeed.  What a powerful reality to live in today.
