John 7:40-52 (Part 3)

 Hey guys, hope you are all doing well. I have about 3 assignments for you this week to prepare your hearts for our time together this weekend. 

Our text will be our third part of John 7, verses 40-52. 

From our text, we want to first take on the challenges of John 7:52 to search the scriptures to see if there has ever been a prophet arise from Galilee. 

Second, we want to search the scriptures to reconcile the prophecies about the Christ. What did they say about Him and did Jesus fulfill them? (John 7:42)

And the third assignment is some consideration about the law and who is actually breaking it and who is actually fulfilling it or maybe another way to consider it, is who knows or understands the law correctly. (John 7:49)

I will post on the website soon some notes on all 3 of these for you to review and consider after you have taken the time to ponder these questions and ideas in your heart. 

Also as with the last chapter, I asked you to complement our study with Exodus 16 with the mana and Exodus 12 with the Passover, I want you to read Matt. 1:18-2:23

Luke 1:26-38, 2:1-7, 39-40. This will refresh your mind with how God fulfilled His promises that He prophesied to do in Christ.

Hope you all have a great week and looking forward to walking through God’s word with you this weekend. Can’t wait to see how He helps us put a few more pieces of the John puzzle together, so that we can see God, Christ and His wonderful Gospel all the more clearer.
