Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Whoever Believes in MeJohn 7

Compiled and Presented by:Dave Stewart

20 September 2015www.churchofchristmiranda.com

Synopsis: Believing is not easy. Jesus reminds us in this passage that He is from God, His teaching is from God, and that He is going to God. In this passage we find three types of responses to Him. One is from the authorities who oppose Him and want to kill Him. Some of the people see Him as a false teacher and others see him as good. Important lessons about the basis for our belief are found in this text.
