Our study on the Unchanging Word continues in John 5. We will be looking at verses 31-47.
Once again our Savior, in speaking to the people, brings to our attention four witnesses which bear witness to who He is.
He first mentions John the Baptist, then Jesus' own works bear witness of Him.
Next, Jesus' own Father who sent Him bears witness of Him and lastly,
the Scriptures bear witness of Him.
Is it not interesting that the same Scriptures that the people said they believed in
are going to be the same Scriptures which will accuse them.
Having missed seeing Christ in the Word of God,
they ignorantly fulfilled these in condemning Him and crucifying Him.
So, let us not be ignorant of the Word of God but read it to see Jesus,
who is our wisdom, our righteousness, our sanctification and redemption.
Turn with us to John 5:31 as we listen along to our teacher Dr. Mitchell.
