They Hated Me

The Gospel of John is rather unique in several ways. It's the “I Am” gospel. It's the gospel of belief. It's the gospel of the revelation of the Son of God. And the teachings of Jesus are so wonderful and so powerful.

These programs will be about the last 4 months of Jesus’ life. In John 10:22 it talks about the Feast of the Dedication and it was winter. The Feast of the Dedication was also called the Feast of Lights. That was a Jewish holiday that is now called Hanukkah. It's still referred to as the Feast of Lights. In this scripture it says, “And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication and it was winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.” The scripture goes on to say, “Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.” And Jesus’ response was, “I told you and you believed it not.”

“Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.” This wasn't the first time that they hated him. “Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

It is my goal, my aim to be Biblically correct. And I realize that these are hard sayings to name people that the Bible names and to mention people that the Bible mentions.
