Thought for October 15th. NO ONE EVER SPOKE LIKE THIS MAN” Oct 15, 2024

Show notes

The Chief Priests and Pharisees sent officers to arrest Jesus, but they returned having failed. The drama of this event is in our reading today in John 7. They are rebuked, “Why did you not bring him?” [v.45] and respond “”No one ever spoke like this man.” We are given no detail of the scene, but we imagine these officers standing within the crowd of people who were absorbed in what Jesus was saying for “he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.” [Matt.7 v.29]

No fiction writer could have invented the character of Jesus, it is impossible for anyone with a reasoning mind to read the Gospel records and not realize that these accounts have an overwhelming ring of truth about them. So we picture the dilemma of these officers sent on their impossible task of arresting Jesus. What was the real reason his arrest was sought? Pilate realized the real reason; in Matthew’s Gospel it says “he knew that it was out of envy they had delivered him up” [ch. 27 v.18] – and in the end, in order to secure his arrest they had needed the help of a traitor and the cover of darkness at the midnight hour coming “with swords and clubs” [Matt 26 v.55] in order to make their arrest.

Before the officers came on their unsuccessful mission the crowd had been debating who he was for “some of the people said, ‘This really is the prophet’, others said ‘this is the Christ’ But some said, ‘Is the Christ to come from Galilee?” [40,41] This debate continues to this day – and we recognise that it is the will of God that it should be so; his birth in Bethlehem had been concealed. Why was this?

Are we going to complain because that which is true is not immediately made plain? Are we going to use this as an excuse for not believing? The character of Jesus and the impact he had – and then left on the earth after his death and resurrection – is in sufficient evidence for all who genuinely seek to find and believe. Truly “no one ever spoke like this man” and we turn away from reading of what he said, and what his followers were inspired to write, to our eternal loss.

Thought for October 14th. “THIS IS TRULY THE PROPHET” Oct 14, 2024

Show notes

Our readings in John [Ch.6] tell us of when thousands of people personally experienced a great miracle, it is the one miracle recorded in all four gospels; it is when Jesus miraculously fed thousands of people. It is interesting how people can see miracles, such as healings, even a dead man raised, things that happen to other people, but when they personally experience something completely miraculous, it makes a greater impression.

The text says that “when they had seen this sign” they said, “This is truly the prophet who is to come into the world” [v.14] But what happened next!! They then “were about to come and take him by force and make him King” [v.15]. What did Jesus do?

“He departed again to a mountain by himself alone” Why did he do this? He was, in effect, running away from them. Remember that one of the temptations in the wilderness was also an invitation to Him to take rulership over all the kingdoms of the world [Matt. 4 v.8-9]. He was to answer Pilate’s question, “So you are a king?” by saying, “For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world” [John 18 v.37]

What a temptation for him to respond and to be immediately proclaimed king. His Father had given him unlimited power [John 3:34], so he could immediately bring total justice, etc into the world. But this would be doing the right thing the wrong way! That is one of the more subtle and dangerous temptations we have in life.

Those who think Jesus is God himself cannot comprehend how Jesus was really tempted; but it says in Hebrews that our High Priest (Jesus) was “one who in every respect has been tempted as we are” [4 v.15] The Apostle Paul despite all his dedication in serving Christ admits, “I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members” [Romans 7 v.23] It is evident Jesus was tempted in the same way, but “the law of sin” never won. Instead he won and, as a result was “made perfect” {Hebrews 5 v.9]

Matthew’s account of his temptation in the wilderness was known to him most probably by being told of it by Jesus, and Jesus chose to describe his inner temptation in the form of a parable. So let us try to follow the example of Jesus and try to run away from temptation by doing something else, thinking of something else, or by calling a Bible passage to mind as Jesus did in the wilderness temptations, then we will be truly followers of “the prophet”

Thought for October 13th. “YOU DO NOT HAVE HIS WORD ABIDING IN YOU” Oct 13, 2024

Show notes

We may read God’s word every day, we may find it interesting and helpful as a guide to living a satisfying life, but is that enough? What did Jesus mean when he spoke about God’s word abiding, that is, living in a person? Who was Jesus talking to on this occasion?

Today’s reading of John Ch. 5 is about the increasing confrontation of Jesus with the Jews (v.18). The challenge for them had begun with preaching of John Baptist and Jesus says, “He was a burning and a shining lamp and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.” [v.35] They listened and there was a time of interest, even of rejoicing, but then it suddenly became too hard to accept, the message, especially that of Jesus, challenged their vested interests.

What a great lesson is there for us here. The word of God which Jesus conveys to human beings has to be accepted into the minds of those who hear. If it is not accepted it cannot live in them. When it lives in them, it becomes part of their thinking. It is the “living water” – this Jesus spoke to the woman of Samaria about – as we read yesterday (4 v.10) noting how Jesus went on to explain, “The water that I will give … become(s) a spring of water welling up to eternal life” [v.14]

Water is a cleansing agent and the “living water” that Jesus provides is his cleansing word. But for it to do its work it has to abide in us. The Jews who rejoiced for a while at hearing John the Baptist failed to let his words abide in them. The same, very sadly, has been true of every generation.

Human nature is such that all too often we only hear what we want to hear. On another occasion Jesus said, “For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light. Take care then how you hear … “ [Luke 8 v.17,18] There is no point in listening to Jesus and his message from God if we do not let his words live in us and change our thinking and our lives – for Jesus also said, as we read today, “whoever hears my word and believes on him who sent me has eternal life” [v.24], surely meaning that their names are now in “the book of life” as we read last week in Philippians 4 v.3.

Christian Religious Customs and Traditions Examined - 'Confession' with Isaac Armonis Oct 12, 2024

Show notes

A @Christadelphians Video: Description: The various Church views of Confession are explained, and shown why they have no basis in scripture. Scripture actually requires us to sincerely repent, of our mistakes, by changing our ways, resolving not to make the same mistake, and a commitment to walk more scripturally in the future. A wonderful hope of eternal life on this earth awaits all those who faithfully turn to truth explained in the Bible. ### Summary Confession, as taught in the Bible, requires sincere acknowledgment of sin to God, contrasting with church traditions that often misinterpret this practice. ### Highlights - 📖 Biblical Confession: True confession is a heartfelt admission of guilt to God. - ⚖️ Importance of Confession: It is crucial for receiving God's forgiveness and cleansing from unrighteousness. - 🔍 Misconceptions: Many church traditions lack biblical foundation, often stemming from customs or commercialism. - 🙏 Direct to God: Confession should be made directly to God, not through a priest or intermediary. - 💔 Genuine Repentance: Confession must involve remorse and a commitment to change, not just a superficial apology. - ✝️ Template of Confession: The Bible provides a clear template for confession, illustrated in Genesis and Psalms. - 🌍 Hope in Forgiveness: Genuine confession leads to joy and hope in God's future kingdom. ### Key Insights - 📜 **Biblical Basis for Confession**: Confession is not merely admitting guilt; it is a heartfelt acknowledgment of wrongdoing before God, as emphasized in the Old and New Testaments. Understanding this is essential for genuine repentance. - 🛤️ **Path to Forgiveness**: The Bible teaches that confession leads to forgiveness, which restores the relationship with God. This process is vital for spiritual cleansing and acceptance into His kingdom. - ⛪ **Tradition vs. Scripture**: Many church customs around confession diverge from biblical teachings, often rooted in tradition rather than scripture. This highlights the need for believers to seek truth in the Bible. - 🔄 **Sincere Repentance Required**: True confession requires more than words; it involves a deep sense of remorse and a promise to change, reflecting a sincere desire to right one's wrongs. - 📖 **Template for Confession**: The Bible provides a clear model for confession, illustrated by figures like Adam, Eve, and David, showing that acknowledgment and direct communication with God are vital. - 🚫 **Rejection of False Practices**: Practices like praying to saints or confessing to priests lack biblical endorsement and can lead believers away from the true practice of confession as outlined in scripture. - 🌈 **Joy in Forgiveness**: The emotional and spiritual relief that comes from true confession leads to joy and fulfillment, reinforcing the hope of salvation and eternal life with God. ******************** This video was produced by the ChristadelphianVideo.org project, arranged and supported by Christadelphians worldwide.

Thought for October 12th. “DAVID’S WONDERFUL FINAL PRAYER” Oct 12, 2024

Show notes

We tend to give only passing attention to our Chronicles reading because our other readings in Ezekiel 38 and John 4 provoke so much thought. But in Chronicles we have the climax of the end of David’s life. Consider the scene: he had made great provision for building the Temple, others had followed his example and “the people rejoiced because they had given willingly, for with a whole heart they had offered freely to the Lord” [1 Chron.29 v.9].

Now consider carefully how David offers the final public prayer of his life. “Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O LORD, and you are exalted as head above all. And now we thank you, our God, and praise your glorious name.” [v.11-13]

Now take special note of the sudden change of thought in the prayer! David’s mind, his vision of life and all that it really is, causes him to say, “But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able thus to offer willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you. For we are strangers before you and sojourners as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no abiding.” [v.14,15]

David was totally honest and faced the true reality of the human position in his thinking in total contrast to God’s. Next he becomes very personal about his relationship with God. “I know, my God, that you test the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present hear, offering freely and joyously to you … direct their hearts toward you.” [v.17,18]

David now died and Solomon became king. His Psalm (No. 17) is a prayer; it provides a fitting epitaph to the thoughts we have culled. Note the last verse. “As for me, I shall behold your face in righteousness; when I awake, I shall be satisfied with your likeness.” David has set us a heart moving example to follow!

Thought for October 11th. “UNLESS ONE IS BORN OF WATER AND THE SPIRIT” Oct 11, 2024

Show notes

These words of Jesus to Nicodemus, the Jewish teacher who came to him by night, challenge our thinking and understanding. We need to understand them within the context of the unfolding words of Jesus. Many Christians like to say they are “born again,” but what did Jesus mean?

Nicodemus admitted. “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do unless God is with him” [John 3 v.2] His words lead Jesus to respond, “unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God” [v.3]. The ESV footnote says, ‘the Greek is purposely ambiguous and can mean both again and from above” This means, we believe, the action of God in responding to what he sees in the heart of the one seeking to be re-born. We recall God’s words through Isaiah, “I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him (or her) who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.” [57 v.15]

Thus there is a ‘rebirth’ in the heart of one who is fully “born again” because of the action of he who is above. The visible action of this is then created by the person themselves in being ‘born of water’ as happened on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2 v.37,38). Later in the chapter we note that John Baptist’s disciples comment on how “all are going to him” (Jesus) and “look he is baptising” [v.26,22; 4 v.1,2 – the disciples of Jesus doing the baptising]

However, many were “not receiving his testimony”! Then the comment is made, “Whoever receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true” [v.33] This reaction to Jesus’ teaching is evidence that one is also born of the spirit. The opposite of this is, “He who is of the earth, belongs to the earth and speaks in an earthly way” [v.31]. We must ask ourselves – in what way do we speak? This is evidence we been born of water and of the spirit?

Thought for October 10th. “IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE WORD “ Oct 10, 2024

Show notes

Today we started reading the Gospel of John. It is one of the most challenging books to understand. But the Bible would lose our continuing interest if its meaning was immediately plain as we read it. Often we have to carefully think about what we read. This is God’s wisdom in the way he has caused it to be written. It never fails to interest us, especially when we suddenly see new connections of thought as our knowledge of God’s word increases.

The problem is made greater in a few cases because translators may have a fixed idea in their minds as to the intent behind the words they are translating. John’s Gospel begins by using the word WORD. “In the beginning was the WORD” In the Greek this is the word logos. The lexicon (Vines) states it is “the expression of thought” – conception or idea, also a saying. In the way John uses it, sometimes it is translated as saying [eg John 4 v.47,49] in the context of Jesus speaking to his hearers. A primary meaning is a ‘spoken word’

This leads us to recall that Genesis 1 is all about what God said, words which resulted in life appearing on earth, God’s word was spoken and things happened “in the beginning”. All that the people heard in the wilderness was God speaking from the top of the mountain. God was known by his WORD, no one saw God he was known only by his voice.

The translators confuse us in John 1 when they start to use the word “Him” Earlier translators (Tyndale) used the word “it.” The best way to get the meaning is to use the noun instead of the pronoun. For example verse 3 is better read as “All things were made through a word, and without a word was not anything made that was made” (Look at Isa. 55 v.11)

But we can see a greater meaning here; a special spiritual meaning – that is, that the words of Jesus had the power to bring eternal life to those that accepted them. This would result in a new spiritual creation leading to a race of immortal spiritual beings when Jesus comes again. Read carefully v.12, “…to all who did receive him, who believed his name, he gave the right to become ‘children of God’ “ Those who believe in Jesus “receive him”! Which means? It means we think that he comes to dwell in the new believer and the full reality of this will be experienced when he returns. Read and think about John 14 v.23
