The Gospel of John 5:45-47 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God Says …

“Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?” (John 5:45-47 KJV)

The Lord Jesus continues to engage the religious Jews, who are bent at believing in everything but the truth, to give light to their darkened mind. These group of so-called people of knowledge, specially being the supposedly custodians of God's promises, truly are a picture of today's religious but ungodly generation - who are quick to embrace anything of the pagan world than that of God.

These group of people claim that they follow and believe Moses, who wrote about the Lord Jesus Christ and point to His coming, but yet they don't believe in Him (who Moses wrote about) who had come in their midst. Yes, He's in their midst physically in the person of the Lord Jesus and in ours too in the person of the Holy Spirit. He is available for all the world to believe in and receive, in Christ Jesus's name! The risen Lord is now seated at the right hand of the Father advocating for us who received Him (1 John 2:1) and are born again (John 3:3). For those who do not believe, firstly the unbelieving Jews who claimed to follow Moses, will have Moses to accuse them to the Father, the Lord revealed. For all those who do not believe in these present age, they accuse and condemn themselves (John 3:18b). Those who believe are saved! (Acts 16:31).

The decision is ours to make and act on. It is written: “The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.” (John 3:35-36 ESV)

And I say, AMEN!

(When God says... I say, AMEN! is a provocative reflection of the Lord's holy Word. It intends to challenge every seeker of truth to dig deep into the core of the Word of Life to point every being to Christ Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith, and to draw revelations for change, for nourishment and for strength of every soul.)
