Short Study Book of John Part VI
Short Study of the Book of John Part V1 Lesson Objective: To continue the study with emphasis on Christ last days with the disciples before his crucifixion. Chapter 13 Last Supper Christ recognizes the end is near John 13: 1-4 Christ washes feet John 13: 5-14 Christ confronts Judas John 13: 15-38 Chapter 14 Christ tries to prepare the disciples for his departure John 14: 1-3 Christ promise to us Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also Christ restates his relationship with the Father John 14: 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Christ reminds us that we are to love him by our actions and not just words John 14:15 “If ye love me, keep my commandments John 14:21 "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." Christ promises the Holy Spirit John 14:16 “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;" Chapter 15 Christ continues teaching the disciples The vine John 15: 1-12 Relationships John 15:12 "This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you." John 15:13 “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down st his life for his friends." John 15:15 “Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you." John 15:14 “Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you." John 15:16 “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you." Chapter 16 Christ continues to inform the Disciples of their impending fate John 16: 1-7 Christ foretells that they will be persecuted Christ announces the coming of the Holy Spirit JOHN 16:21-22 21 “A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the suffering, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. 22 Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you John 16: 30b By this we believe that You came forth from God.” 16: 31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
