If God were your Father, ye would love Jesus

“If God were your Father, ye would love me”

It’s impossible to love the father without loving his only begotten son. Jesus said that these Pharisees’ father was the devil because they were trusting in the lie of the devil.

The apostle Paul warned us of the antichrist. Even he, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

The Truth Will Make You Free

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed”

Before we were saved, we were in bondage to sin, but now that we have been born again by the Spirit of the living God through the blood of Jesus Christ, we have been made free, not free to continue in sin, not free to do our own will, but free to do his will.

The apostle Paul said, “ But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us.”

Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) the apostle Peter said As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.

The Light of Life

“he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life”

Jesus is the light of the world. Light represents truth. Darkness represents a lie. The Pharisees were not walking in truth. The truth was right in front of them, but they could not see nor hear the truth because they were trusting in themselves and their own righteousness. Paul, the apostle, dealt with these people, and this is what he said about them.

For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
