Making it Crystal Clear

Text: John 14: 6

MAKING IT CRYSTAL CLEAR

Jesus knew that His disciples had some difficulties in their faith in Him. He had addressed this problem of “little faith.” The lack of a great faith hindered them from appreciating their salvation in Him.

“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but through Me.’”

John 14:6

1. “Jesus said to him”

a. Patiently He explained
b. Kindly He spoke to Thomas
c. He understood his struggles
d. He will try and help him comprehend his faith in Him

2. There are three things a person needs in life:

a. He needs the know the way:
i. The way to walk in life
ii. The way that leads to Heaven
b. He needs to know the truth
i. There was much falsehood in the world
ii. Half-truths are little better than lies; they are sometimes even more deadly
He needs to know the truth clearly
c. He needs to have “life”
i. A life forgiven of sins
ii. An abundant life on earth
iii. Eternal life with Jesus in Heaven

3. Where Jesus fits in

a. He is all of the above
i. He not only shows the way, He is The Way
ii. He is also The Truth (the embodiment of truth)
iii. He is also The Life (both abundant and eternal)
b. No one can come to the Father except through Him
i. Jesus is the Saviour
ii. He is the Mediator between God and man

经文:约翰福音 14:6

明确和清楚地讲解

耶稣知道门徒们在于对祂的信心方面遇到许多困难。耶稣曾经处理这“小信”的问题。因为他们缺乏强大的信心,所以无法珍惜在耶稣里的救恩。

“耶稣说:‘我就是道路、真理、生命。若不借着我,没有人能到父那里去。’”

《约翰福音 14:6》

a. 祂耐心地解释
b. 祂富慈爱地对多马说
c. 祂了解他的挣扎
d. 祂会竭力帮助多马了解对祂的信心

2. 一个人生命中需要以下三方面:

a. 他必须认识这道路:

i. 世上有许多虚谎
ii. 半真半假的话或许比谎言好一些;但有时杀伤力更大
他必须清楚了解真理
c. 他必须有“生命”
i. 一个蒙赦罪的生命
ii. 一个在世上丰盛的生命
iii. 与耶稣在天国的永生

3. 耶稣如何与这三方面相合

a. 祂是上述所有的
i. 祂不仅指引道路,祂就是道路
ii. 祂也是真理(真理的体现)
iii. 祂也是生命(丰盛、永恒的生命)
b. 若不借着祂,没有人能到父那里去
