Isaiah 49:8-15 | Psalm 145 | John 5:17-30
WHAT ABOUT JESUS?
Jesus “was speaking of God as His own Father, thereby making
Himself God’s equal.” - John 5:18
Jesus is the Son of God. He is God’s equal. He is God (John
1:1; 8:24, 28, 58). Jesus “grants life to those to whom He wishes” (John 5:21).
The Father “has assigned all judgment to the Son, so that all men may honor the
Son just as they honor the Father” (John 5:22-23).
If we hear Jesus and believe in Him, we possess eternal
life, do not come under condemnation, and pass from death to life (John 5:24).
The dead who listen to Jesus’ voice shall live (John 5:25). “An hour is coming
in which all those in their tombs shall hear His voice and come forth. Those
who have done right shall rise to live; the evildoers shall rise to be damned”
(John 5:28-29). Jesus clearly maintains He is God, the Way, the Truth, and the
Life (John 14:6), the Resurrection and the Life (John 11:25).
How you choose to respond to Jesus will be the best or worst
decision of your life. If you believe in Jesus, then give your life to Him,
worship Him, and tell the world about Him. If you don’t believe in Jesus…
Prayer: Lord Jesus, like Thomas, make me able to look on You
and say, “My Lord and my God.”
