In this section of the Upper Room discourse, Jesus uses the image of the vine to discuss his relationship between Himself and His People, the Church.

Sun, 7 May 2017 21:27:05 +0000

Throughout His life, Jesus continually escapes capture and evades death because His time had not yet come. Now 6 days before Passover, Jesus arrives back in Bethany. In these verses, we see events happen the day before Palm Sunday. It's interesting that in this testing time, Jesus is back in the home of His beloved and close friends. We can note several things from the great act of kindness that takes place:

1. It was prompted by Gratitude

Jesus Christ, the Light of the World

Sun, 23 Oct 2016 20:40:49 +0000

We are dependent on light to find our way in the World. Jesus Christ is such a light and in this passage He is speaking in the Temple during the Feast of Booths. Jesus uses the occasion to make an extraordinary claim, 'I am the light of the world'.

During this Feast of Booths Jesus has used the imagery of the Exodus in the wilderness to explain His teachings and how this time in O.T history pointed forward to Him. The Manna (Bread of Life), Water from the Rock (Rivers of Living Water) and Pillars of Cloud and Fire (Light of the World) were used to show Christ's preeminence in all of Scripture.
