From darkness to Light. John 3:19

From darkness to Light. John 3:19

19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.JOHN 3:19 ESV19 αὕτη δέ ἐστιν ἡ κρίσις ὅτι τὸ φῶς ἐλήλυθεν εἰς τὸν κόσμον καὶ ἠγάπησαν οἱ ἄνθρωποι μᾶλλον τὸ σκότος ἢ τὸ φῶς, ἦν γὰρ αὐτῶν πονηρὰ τὰ ἔργα.JOHN 3:19 SBLGNT In this verse, we see how the emphasis has shifted from the positive to the…

Curiosity, Imitation and Emulation

Curiosity, Imitation and Emulation

Curiosity is the desire to come to full knowledge and understanding of a thing. Imitation is one of the first reactions of a child, it is not sinful, which leads us to the right knowledge of ourselves by imitating others. Emulation is the instinct to imitate what we see another doing. Unless we focus on Jesus Christ our attempts will all be in vain. Allow our Curiosity, Imitation and Emulation be…

TO BE or NOT TO BE JUDGED. JOHN 3:18

TO BE or NOT TO BE JUDGED. JOHN 3:18

18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.JOHN 3:18 ESV18 ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν οὐ κρίνεται· ὁ δὲ μὴ πιστεύων ἤδη κέκριται, ὅτι μὴ πεπίστευκεν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ μονογενοῦς υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ.JOHN 3:18 SBLGNT With God’s purpose of love thus clearly stated, the manner of its realization is…

God's Greatest Gift. JOHN 3:16

God’s Greatest Gift. JOHN 3:16

16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.JOHN 3:16 ESV Οὕτως γὰρ ἠγάπησεν ὁ θεὸς τὸν κόσμον ὥστε τὸν υἱὸν τὸν μονογενῆ ἔδωκεν, ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν μὴ ἀπόληται ἀλλὰ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον.JOHN 3:16 SBLGNT Why a new paragraph should begin at this verse is hard to see since the connection with ‘for,’ ‘γάρ’ is…

Lifting Oneself. JOHN 3:14

Lifting Oneself. JOHN 3:14

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.JOHN 3:14 ESV14 καὶ καθὼς Μωϋσῆς ὕψωσεν τὸν ὄφιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, οὕτως ὑψωθῆναι δεῖ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου,JOHN 3:14 SBLGNT The connections between this verse and the preceding verses are two.

PSALM 11: Trepidation and Steadfastness

If we seek to live within a world without boundaries, what boundaries do you adhere to. Are we dictated by our mind or by our hearts that are grounded in God's word and his providence?

Psalm 11. trepidation and steadfastnessThis is a psalm of David that comes straight from a crisis. It opens with a spirited retort to some demoralizing advice and goes on to show what is the real scale and pattern of events, and what is more to be prized than safety.11:1–3. Voices of despairThe plea to get away into hiding is still ringing in David’s ears as he begins his reply, formulated at…

CREATION. Realm of Miracles

Even when they are fully satisfied with the attribution of an event to the supernatural activity of God and so its designation as a miracle requires a distinctive act of spiritual intuition. Creation and the realm of Miracles

To Believe, Believing and Believe. John 3:15

To Believe, Believing and Believe. John 3:15

15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.JOHN 3:15 ESV15 ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων ἐν αὐτῷ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον.JOHN 3:15 SBLGNT This is the first time the phrase “eternal life” is mentioned in the Gospel of John. The reason for its appearance here is that “Eternal Life” is associated to the new kife that is the result of the “born of water and Spirit,” written in verses 5 – 5 Jesus answered,…

Jesus and the Baptist continued ministry JOHN 3:22-24

Therefore, this is the reason for the statement and not the self-evident fact that the Baptist’s work ceased when he was cast into prison. That also is why John has the article: had been cast “into the prison,” referring his readers to this famous prison

Readers of Mark 1:14 and Matt. 4:12–17 might question our evangelist’s account that the Baptist and Jesus were thus baptized simultaneously. So John states that this occurred prior to the Baptist’s imprisonment. Therefore, this is the reason for the statement and not the self-evident fact that the Baptist’s work ceased when he was cast into prison. That also is why John has the article: had been…

Look to Christ and not Ourselves. JOHN 3:12

12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?JOHN 3:12 ESV 12 εἰ τὰ ἐπίγεια εἶπον ὑμῖν καὶ οὐ πιστεύετε, πῶς ἐὰν εἴπω ὑμῖν τὰ ἐπουράνια πιστεύσετε;JOHN 3:12 SBLGNT It should have been easy for Nicodemus and the others to believe this testimony regarding the new birth wrought by the Spirit, for this belongs to the lesser parts of…

The Evil Within Us

The Evil Within Us is part of our inherent nature. When we realize that it is a part of us, we can either seek to diminish its influence on us or allow it to rule our nature.
