John 5:16-47
Introduction: Do you imagine judgment as a case in court?Typically, there are 5 parts to a case in court: Initial appearance, Arraignment, Trial, Sentencing, & AppealJudgments in court give weight to similar court casesWhat if our understanding of judgment in scripture is misunderstood?The Jews put Jesus on trial in their mindsThe Jews were the judge, jury & executioners in their own mindJesus was accused of having Satan represent himThere is no appeal after JesusJesus wasn’t really on trial, all of mankind is, and he is the judgeOur understanding of where others are standing in court isn’t biblicalJesus is going to use a very simple standard for judgmentThe law isn’t on our sideThe Jews looked to Moses for defenseMoses isn’t their defense, he’s the prosecutorConclusion: If our understanding of judgment is misunderstood, we might be building the wrong defenseAll we need is JesusDo you know him?The post John 5:16-47 – “Trial of the Millennium” appeared first on Runge First Baptist Church.
