SCRIPTURES for SUNDAY 2.18.2018 Today’S Scripture Is Filled with Contrasts and Paradoxes
SCRIPTURES FOR SUNDAY 2.18.2018 Today’s scripture is filled with contrasts and paradoxes. Jesus is the word, from the beginning, in whom is life. Yet here we see that the life he gives to Lazarus, raising him from John 11:1-45 the dead, is the very thing that leads to his death. This story New Revised Standard Version (NRSV) is followed by John 11:45-54 which concludes with the narrative explanation “So from that day on [the ruling 1 council of the chief priests and the Pharisees] planned to put Now a certain man was ill, Lazarus of Bethany, the Jesus to death.” village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 Mary was the one who anointed the Lord with perfume and All of the miraculous signs of Jesus point to who he is and I am wiped his feet with her hair; her brother Lazarus was what he has come to give humanity (and are followed by the 3 statements in John’s gospel). None of them are more ill.

Luke Chapter 21 Continued
Luke Chapter 21 Continued Luke 21:20 "And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh." “Jerusalem compassed with armies”: A comparison with (Matt. 14:15-16 and Mark 13:14), suggests that this sign is closely associated with “the abomination of desolation”. This sign of Jerusalem under siege was previewed in A.D. 70, but awaits its fulfillment in the future. We know that just a few years after Jesus spoke this, Jerusalem was surrounded and fell. I personally believe this had a dual meaning for then and for the last days, as well. One of the things we are to watch is what is happening to Israel and especially Jerusalem to know when we are near the end of the Gentile age. The main thrust of verse 20 above is for the end of the Gentile age. Luke 21:21 "Then let them which are in Judea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto." “The mountains”: Probably a reference to the region southeast of Jerusalem, particularly the Dead Sea area, where there are many caves and places of refuge. David hid from Saul in this area (1 Sam. 23:29). This would also include the hills of Moab and Edom. The Greek word for “flee” is related to the English word “fugitive,” a person who is on the run to escape danger. Jesus warns those who live in Judea to escape the holocaust by taking refuge in the mountains.

Jesus: His Life from the Perspectives of Mary and Caiaphas (Pt. 2)
Digital Commons @ George Fox University Faculty Publications - College of Christian Studies College of Christian Studies 2019 Jesus: His Life from the Perspectives of Mary and Caiaphas (Pt. 2) Paul N. Anderson Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.georgefox.edu/ccs Part of the Christianity Commons News and Interpretations on the Bible and Ancient Near East History. "Jesus: His Life from the Perspectives of Mary and Caiaphas" (Pt. 2) By Paul N. Anderson George Fox University Newberg, Oregon April 2019 Following on the first two episodes of the History Channel’s “Jesus: His Life,” focusing on perspectives of Joseph and John the Baptist, the second installment continues the hybrid approach, reflecting on the life of Jesus from the perspectives of Mary and Caiaphas. The opening episode features Jesus visiting Jerusalem as a twelve-year old, as portrayed in Luke 2. Beginning with Mary and her memory of the infancy and childhood of Jesus, things move forward quickly into the story of his engaging the Jewish authorities in the temple. While nothing else is known about the childhood and early adulthood of Jesus, the memory of his engaging religious authorities in Jerusalem must have influenced Mary’s impression of his mission and special calling in life. The episode tracks with the traditional view that Joseph may have died before the ministry of Jesus began, which would have led to his working as a carpenter to support the family. Along these lines, several conjectures of tensions between Jesus and his brother are presented. First, his brothers may have resented his ministry-related departure—imposing on them to provide for the family’s welfare.

Return to Sermon Series
Wheelersburg Baptist Church 6/27/10 Brad Brandt John 2:1-11 “Jesus Began at a Wedding”** Main Idea: In John 2:1-11, Jesus revealed His glory (so says verse 11). Specifically, by performing the miracle of turning water into wine He revealed three things about Himself. I. Jesus revealed His love (1-2). A. He went to a wedding celebration. B. He spent time with people. C. He taught His followers to do the same. II. Jesus revealed His humility (3-5). A. We see it in His relationship with His mother. B. We see it in His perspective on time. 1. Jesus did not do His own thing in life. 2. Jesus always did His Father’s will. III. Jesus revealed His Lordship (6-10). A. He gave ceremonial jars a new purpose (6). 1. We tend to idolize our religious traditions. 2. Jesus came to inaugurate something new. B. He told someone else’s servants what to do (7-8). C. He caused water to become wine (9-10). 1. John the Baptist abstained from it (Luke 1:15). 2. Jesus made it and drank it (Matt. 11:19; Mark 14:25). 3. The Bible warns us of the dangers of it (Gen 9:21; 19:33; Amos 6:6, 7; Micah 2:11; Rom 14:20-21). 4. The Bible makes it clear that it’s a sin to get drunk (Eph 5:18; 1 Tim 3:3, 8; Titus 2:3). 5. Wisdom says if you don’t drink, you’ll never get drunk (Proverbs 20:1; 21:17; 23:19-21, 29-35).

Nicodemus: an Encounter
Lumen et Vita ~ Vol. 3 ~ 2013 Nicodemus: An Encounter Joshua Johnson Boston College INTRODUCTION This paper offers an exegesis and interpretation of John 3:1-15, Jesus' encounter with Nicodemus, one of the gospel's most memorable characters. Central to this discussion will be the significance of the symbol of rebirth. I will conclude by synthesizing the themes that appear in the exegesis and interpretation section. We shall see that the Nicodemus story offers the reader a reconfiguration of reality as Nicodemus is invited to be born again by receiving Jesus. METHODOLOGY I will start by briefly discussing the methodology and philosophy behind my exegesis and LQWHUSUHWDWLRQ6SXUQLQJSKLORVRSK\PRVWRIWHQHQGVQRWLQ³QRSKLORVRSK\EXWXQFRQVFLRXV SKLORVRSK\DQGDOOWRRHDVLO\EDGSKLORVRSK\´1 Broadly, this reading is primarily literary and theological. That is, it reflects on how John's gospel reveals divine reality through the vehicle of narrative. This reading is more specifically hermeneutical, influenced by Paul Ricoeur and his interlocutors. Like Ricoeur, I take Aristotle's understanding of narrative as foundational: it is mythos-mi mesi s.

Its intelligibility lies in the real world, it creates a world of its own, and it makes claims on the reader in the real world.
