Discuss John 14 Page 44

WE are the household of God who dwells in us ( Eph 2:19-22, I Co 6:19-20) and wisdom is already in us ( 1 Co 1:30, John 14:16-17, 26). Understanding is already ours ( John 8:32). We need to stop looking to "obtain" the things of God and start manifesting what we "already have". God's already provided everything ( 2 Pet 1:3). See Hosea 4:6 as to why most Christians are defeated in life. It's sad.

Continue, The Father, by cultivating the Son works Himself with all His riches into the vine and eventually the vine expresses the Father in a corporate way through His branches.The Fathers economy in the Universe.When we abide in the Lord and His words abide in us, we actually are one with Him and He works within us.Than when we ask in prayer for whatever we will, it is not only we who are pray.

The worldly concept of peace is an absence of war. During the time when the Lord Jesus Christ earthly ministry, Israel is under the colonization of Roman Empire and wars are eminent during that time and people of Israel wants peace and security and longing for the promise Messianic king to deliver them from Roman Empire and have peace in their promised land. Jesus Christ is giving them assurance that the peace He is offering is more than the peace they are expecting. An inward peace that surpasses logical understanding. Peace that comes from the Father in heaven is not the absence of chaos and wars, but the absence of fear. If you fear for something, like losing job, losing someone you love, losing security, losing something important, losing the battle, then you don't have peace in your heart. The peace what the Lord Jesus Christ offers is the complete TRUST in Him, having the full confidence that no matter what you will not have fear because He is control of your life and everything.

V. 9 - " ..... he that hath seen me HATH seen the Father ..... "; Jesus didn't say, I am LIKE the Father, He said I am the Father, Jn. 1:14; ! Tim. 3:16.

"Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it suffices us." Now Philip had seen all the Lord's works of power; had heard His teaching, and His wisdom and understanding; he had been with Jesus constantly for about three and a half years, and had studied His face, and His whole nature and character daily being with Him and the other Apostles. Does he now still need more? Do we still also?

For the past year or so, I have faced challenges that almost drained all peace and joy from me. Even today, the odds against me financially are phenomenal, I have not managed to settle the university fees bill for my daughter in Moscow, talking within the home is strained, scarce and harsh, I am not working, things are just rough. Notwithstanding these hardships, the verse John 14:27 is just the right verse for me. I instantly received the peace that Jesus my Savior speaks of. The joy is returned, not joy in the hardships and challenges but peace and joy from Jesus my Lord. Thank you for the peace and the joy Lord, be exalted forever, and with this peace comes breakthroughs in all the areas of my life. If hardships had tried to destroy the peace in me, and since the peace has returned, the hardships are being destroyed effectively, one after the other. I now understand that peace is a warrior against all manner of challenges - Amen, in Jesus' Name.

I need this so much right now. Thank you, God : .

It's so funny that we all at some point and time in our lives think we can say anything and do anything, and still think we are going to heaven, not so Jesus says He is the way and the truth, and there's no other way to God our father which art in heaven, He not playing around He makes it clear. we got to get it together for the sake of God our Father God the Son and God the Holy spirit. get ready

Jesus is the only Prince of Peace without him in our life We don't have Peace not even the world giveth Let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid. Sometimes we need to handover our disappointments to Jesus rather than keep thinking the things that are not working Jesus is the only answer and our need. I will keep your words Lord until rapture i will praise you and worship you amen

@ Rose John 14:8-9

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

great job

BSP: The Father, full of mercy, love, and truth. All the fruits of the Spirit. We see our wonderful loving Father in Heaven. AMEN.

Comment*He is so loving God knows it allows

Verse 9 shows that Jesus reflects his Father's personality so perfectly that observing Jesus is like seeing the Father.

Enuff to make anybody that reads it to check themselves

Jesus said in Mathew that men shall come from east and west and dine with Abraham in the kingdom while the children of Abraham shall be cast into fire. please know it that without Jesus,no soul shall go into heaven.God Bless You.

Irene, I am familiar with that. My wife, same thing. Everything will work out in the Lord, to the good. He is help.

Rick and Irene, for your clarification, read John 14:23 to the end. This and Matt. 28:19 should help you see Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. God Bless.

Bless God for Jesus Christ, verse 28 of St.John chapter 14. Jesus reiterated the importance of his going away and that he shall return. Earlier in verses 2 and 3, Jesus tells the believers he goes to prepare a place for us in the Fathers house of mansions. And that bit of knowledge be all the more to keep and obey with love the commandments given.

Very powerful is the name of Jesus, if we believe in him in spirit and in truth.Praise and honor is to our God!!!

Jesus is the only way that we can gain access to our heavenly Father, Jehovah God. We need to closely examine the way Jesus lived his life and strive to imitate his example as closely as possible. We also need to approach God in prayer through the name of Jesus Christ.

The lord is so great and the word is powerful...he does not require us to do anything just believe in him and follows his commandments..just that !!! God thank you for everything!!!

Jesus is the only way the truth and the life no one can cometh to the Father but by me. I believed you Jesus that you are the Son of the living God thank you for the blood you shed for us. Help me to be born again in spirit every moment of my life i will praise you Jesus and worship you alone. Thank you for your words that i meditate every you are my life and my salvation amen

Irene, continuing; John 14:15-17, the Lord tells us how love and obedience and having the Holy Ghost in us, all go together. In this part He also shows how the Spirit of Truth being in us, marks us as made distinctly separate from the world, which is set on not knowing the Lord Jesus and His Holy Spirit. In John 16:7-14, Jesus teaches us the purpose for giving us the Spirit; to convict the world!

disciple: No one can keep the commandments! (pls. permanently delet it from your mind.)
Matt 5:17 - 48
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John 14:21.
Grace is made available to help us walk in the commandments, not a free ticket to sin
Grace gives us another chance to obey the commandments of God
we have a commandment to obey. and this is required of us.
Romans 6:1

Comment*I like it

To Wayne, 12/15/16 - I just now saw the scriptures from Jn. 14:8-13 you gave me when I couldn't recall them. Thank-you --- belatedly. I was not online for 3 wks. during 12/15/'16 because of the flu/pneumonia/bladder infection - all at the same time. At 74 I should have died, but the Lord Jesus kept me.

HOLY GOD, THANK YOU!

This message encouraging me! Special where it says believe me and also to tte father, i go to the father to prepare a place for you, meaning that God cares , we are alive due the fact that Gof is greater, nothing we can do without the son,all we need we should receive because our fsther cares , i'm the truth ,i'm the way, and life ,believe me and my father ,none can see father except me!

As far as the east is from the West, God has thrown my sins into the sea of forgetfulness. No longer under the law of sin but under grace, preparing to go to my heavenly father's place.
