John 7:11-31
In this lesson, we discuss the various debates about Jesus taking place in Jerusalem both before His arrival there and following His appearance in the Temple in the midst of the festival week (the Feast of Tabernacles, which lasted 7 days). There are five main divisions to this lesson: (1) Arguments about Christ's Character, (2) Astonishment at Christ's Doctrine, (3) Accusations of Christ's Person, (4) Anger Over Christ's Word, and (5) Ambivalence Over Christ's Origin.
Find out why it is impossible to conclude that Jesus was just a "good man"! Also, learn how you can KNOW if what Jesus taught is true! He gave the answer in John 7:17 and 7:18. Learn how He pointed out yet another hypocrisy in the Jewish religious leaders concerning their supposed "love" for Moses and the Law! Learn what particular "work" and what particular claim Christ did and made that made the Jews (rulers) so indignant that they wanted to kill Him. The Jews could take no more of Christ's claims to Deity, so they sought to lay hands on Him to arrest Him, but they could not. Why? The answer is found in John 7:30, ". . . because His hour was not yet come"! He had six more months of ministry remaining, and nobody could touch Him until it was the divinely appointed time for Him to give His life - willingly! That time was the Passover.
