Tonight, we learn who God and Jesus call "friend" in the Bible. We also learn that, just like our mommas told us, God is "not our little friend" and we can't talk to Him any type of way.

John 15:12-17 (Jesus calls His disciples friends)

Exodus 33:11 (God talks to Moses face to face like one would talk to a friend)

James 2:23 (God called Abraham friend)

Luke 12:4 (Jesus refers to the crowd as friends)

John 11:11 (Jesus calls Lazarus friend)

Matthew 26:50 (Jesus calls Judas friend)

Matthew 11:19 and Luke 7:34 (Jesus repeats what others have said about Him - that He's a friend of tax collectors and sinners)
