Q2. (John 14:15, 21-25) How is obedience to Jesus linked to loving him? Obedience is an important part of “faith”, they will know us by our “fruits”; A heart that is receptive to the Holy Spirit brings forth a newness to life, it is because, the Holy Spirit makes God’s laws become even more real to him, thereby, we become a living testimony, a new creation that brings truth to the promise of God, Adonai, that He would put his Spirit on all his people, fulfilling the promise of Jesus, that God's laws will be written on the heart. Q3. When Jesus emphasizes obedience, what keeps this from being the heavy burden of a new legalism? The Holy Spirit is a Spirit of truth, truth that expounds the meaning and brings life to God's laws, his commandments; obedience reveals a faithful servant, one whose "desire" is to please the Master, not out of that of "legalism," because one has to, but because it is the desire of the heart, to do so. Q4. Can we love Jesus and not obey him? It would be incorrect to think of salvation as "easy," one that requires good intentions, with no matter to that of commitment: Those "if's" are there for a reason, they are conditional on our commitment, I often wonder, how it can a believer look at God's laws as a yoke, a burden of some kind, when in reality it is how we do acknowledge his right to direct our lives, seeing he has given to us his commandments we should obey them, not the yoke of legalism prescribed by men, for those laws would be unbearable, whereas, the laws of God spring forth from that of "LOVE". We, being a new creation in process, are why we need the Holy Spirit, it is in those times when we do trip up and fall, that the Spirit of God is there to bring conviction to the heart. I am thankful for those times I was in need of the convicting teaching of the Spirit, as obedience to its voice is what turned the direction of my life around, it is called, and has always been, that of God's grace and mercy

Q1. (John 14:15-17) What do you think is the best way to describe the Paraklētos that Jesus sends? What an amazing promise for these Jewish believers to hear, because, the scriptures speak of only a few persons having the Holy Spirit with or upon them, (Num 11) Moses and the seventy elders – (Judges 6:34) The Spirit came upon Gideon, supernaturally giving him wisdom and power to overcome the dangers his office was facing, in order to gain victory over the enemy of Israel – (Judges 11:29) The Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephtah – (Judges 14:6) The Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon Samson with supernatural courage and strength – (1 Samuel 16:13) The Spirit of the LORD came upon David, these being a few named who had the Spirit of the LORD come upon them. What comfort there is in knowing, the promise of the “Spirit of the LORD” is for all who believe and love God’s Son, one of the ways I can best describe the Parakletos is that of “Comforter”, for there is great comfort in knowing the “truth”- Jesus did not leave me comfortless, the Holy Spirit was sent, He who empowers me to a faithful bride. In what sense is the Holy Spirit "another" Paraclete? The Holy Spirit is an all powerful counselor, just like the Messiah.

Q4. (John 14:1b, 6-11) In what sense is trusting in Jesus, the same as trusting in God, and what does it mean that Jesus and the Father are one (John 10:30)? When we place our trust in the Messiah, we are really placing our trust in God the Father; Jesus said He was the way, the way that leads to “The Truth” and “The Life” (John 1:14) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and “TRUTH” – (John 1:4) In Him was life; and the "LIFE" was the light of men. (John 3:34) For He whom “GOD” has sent, speaks the words of GOD”: for God gives not the Spirit by measure unto him, thereby God the Father has turned all things into his hand, (except for the Father) so that they that believe on the Son has everlasting life: but he that does not believe on the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on him. The Son being in subjection to God, it is thereby we are placing our trust in the Father, as we come to fully understand, the Son does nothing of Himself, but what the Father does, for the “Son and the Father” work in unity, as One.

Q1. (John 14:2) What is the "Father's House"? The Father is “King of the Universe,” therefore His abode most likely is somewhere in the Universe, and where the Father is, there are many rooms, if this was not true; the Son would have told us so. Q2. What does verse 2 tells us about what Jesus will do, and what is provided for us? It tells me, He will leave this world and go to be with his Father, and when he goes, he will make ready a room for those who are “faithful” to him, for those who are “watching” and “waiting” for that glorious day. All this was made possible through the “Cross”. Q3. How does that comfort us? It is more than a comfort, it is a warning also, for he is making room for those who will “follow” after his precepts and walk in them, a faithful bride whose gown glistens with that of “His glory”.

Q2. (John 13:14-15) Why do you think Jesus went to such an extent to break all social norms in washing his disciple’s feet? Jesus had no problem with breaking through social norms in order to get the truth, as Rabbi, he knew how important his teachings would be for his disciples, I believe the English word “disciple” falls short in conveying the relationship between a rabbi and his disciple, in Jesus time a disciple would wholeheartedly give themselves over to their teacher, trusting he would lead them in knowledge, wisdom, and ethical behavior. Our Lord was teaching by “EXAMPLE” an important lesson on “ethical behavior”; He who has every right to be served, is serving, as he washes his disciples feet, it is a exciting lesson for me, even though “I” a disciple am not above my Lord, “I” can become like him, as I put to practice his teachings and follow his example. Q3. What value did he establish in his Kingdom by this dramatic act? Servanthood is what comes to my mind, to be a “servant” stems out of “love”, it cannot be forced, and when put to practice the person will be blessed with that of “humility” - a beautiful fruit of the Spirit.

Q1. (John 13:10) Jesus seems to speak to Peter in symbolic language here. In what sense does a "full bath" represent baptism? Baptism represents that of purification, it represents an individual who has placed their “FAITH”, trusting faith in the Messiah of Israel, and in so doing, they are willing to be a witness to that which they have been baptized in, the root meaning is to “dip, soak, immerse” into a liquid, thereby, the properties one has been dipped into will take on its qualities, and they become a living “metaphor” of its purification; Repentance is the key that opens the door of faith so that we may be able to stand before God, for we have placed that “FAITH” in the fact that God’s Son has washed us from our sins in his own blood, and has made us kings and priests unto God and his Father. Q2. If this is so, then what kind of needed cleansing does "foot washing" symbolize? Foot washing symbolizes that of the continual need of purification, not of things in the past, but that of “TODAY”, just as Aaron and his sons, who being priests and kings were already cleansed from impurity, even so they had to wash their hands and feet when they came near the altar to minister; Foot washing here represents the same for us, we who have been immersed into the Messiah have been cleansed from impurity, because we are called to be priests unto God, it is important that we also wash our hands and feet, and how do we do that, it is through “repentance”, for if we say we have no sin, we would be deceiving ourselves, it is God who sets the standards we are to live by, our calling is to be a people who “WILL” to walk in the light, a servant unto God, as we conduct our life worthy of that calling, it takes effort to lift oneself out of apathy and turn from sin.

Q4. (John 12:37-41) In what way does declaring truth to resistant people harden them further? A heart of stone is difficult to break through, therefore, if it has hardened to the degree of no resistance, they will have eyes that “WILL” not to see, and ears that will not hear. Q4. How can a person (or a Pharisee) see a miracle and become even more determined to resist Jesus? Without the will to exercise the gift of “FAITH” and seeking for that of truth, they will be left with the philosophy of man; “LOGICAL THINKING” can therefore become a barrier to that of “truth”, a hardening process that will resist the ways of God. Q4. How do you understand this paradox? If mans “WILL” is to reject God’s truth, over and over again, their hearts will begin the hardening process, producing a heart that is waxed gross, a heart that will become callous to the things of God, they will hear, and will not understand, they will see, and will not perceive. The paradox is being lived out today in America, for Her heart is waxed gross, She has become hardened to the things of God, “She” hears, and does not understand, “She” see’s, and does not perceive; the Godly foundation She was established on is now grumbling beneath “HER”: She who once knew God, but no longer hold dear His commandments, is the reason God will give her up to uncleanness, as Her desire and “WILL” is to walk in the “LOGICAL THINKING” of man’s wisdom, therefore, She will follow after the lusts of her heart, She will make laws that will bring dishonor to their own bodies, laws that will change the “TRUTH” of God into a lie is why God will give her up to her vile affections, the results of her stony heart saddens me, for even though She knows the judgment of God will be on those who commit such gross acts, and are worthy of death, not only will She make laws to do them, She will find great pleasure in making such laws.

Q2. (John 12:25-26) In what way is verse 25 the essence of what it means to be a disciple? A true disciple is one who is willing to follow after the Messiah; it is because our “LOVE” for him supersedes that of self. Q3. In this verse, what does it mean to "love" your life? To love one’s life here means one plans to continue on living the way they want to, even if it is contrary to the wisdom of God, in other words, they plan to do it “MY Way.” Q4. What does it mean to "hate" your life? The meaning here to “HATE” one’s life simply means to “LOVE LESS”; it means we understand full well that God has a plan for us, a plan not to do harm, but to do good, it is in that understanding that we “LOVE LESS” our lives.

Q1. (John 12:23-24) How can God's glory be revealed even in death? “DEATH” could not keep Him in the grave, the glory of God was revealed in that the Messiah arose, He was “VICTORIOUS” over sin. Q2. How does the seed illustrate this, how does Jesus death illustrate this, and how does dying to our old life illustrate this? In order for a seed to bring forth fruit, it must first die, in order for the believer to bring forth fruit, we too must die, we must die to “SELF”, a servant to “SIN”, and in its stead, rise up in victory, for the sting of death as been conquered, our lives are now called to reveal the glory of God, as we purpose in our hearts to follow after our Lord.

Q3. (John 12:12-13) What about the people's praise show they believed Jesus to be the Messiah? The people shouting “Hosanna”, were shouting praise to the Messiah, taking claim to (Psalm 118) blessed is he that comes in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD. Hosanna, Hoshia’na is a prayer addressed to the Messiah to “Deliver us.” Psalms 72:18-19 is a song that King David sings, it is also the song of my heart, for I am thankful that God loved the world enough that he would send his Lamb = “Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things. And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen”. Because of the “Song” is why I sing, “Hosanna to the King of Kings”, as I wait and am watching for the Messiah to come and to reign. Q3. On this occasion, why doesn't Jesus shun such an open declaration that he is the Messiah, as he has in the past? All things are done in God’s perfect timing; most of the nation was looking for God’s promised Messiah to come and bring political revolution, they were looking for a political savior, forgetting Isaiah 53 The Messiah would come as a suffering servant. Jesus kept it low key as to prevent the fury of the Roman government to come upon Himself before God’s appointed time, but now, the time is drawing near for the stone which the builders would refuse to become the head stone of the corner, it will soon be time for God to show the world what “LOVE” is.

Q1. (John 12:3-8) Why did Judas object to Mary's extravagant act of devotion? Greed was a reason Judas objected to Mary anointing the feet of Jesus with such a costly ointment, as was hypocrisy, it was in this pretense that Judas spoke and presented a question that echoed that of a man of high standards and character, “why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor”, while in truth, Judas did not care for the poor, he being the keeper of the money bag, he was thinking of himself, and what he could do with that money. Q2. Why did Jesus defend her? Jesus defended Mary because she had chosen the good part, Mary was a true disciple of the Messiah, a true believer is one who holds true to his teachings as we see Mary once again at the feet of Jesus, anointing the Messiah with her “LOVE”, therefore, it will not be taken away from her. In essence the teaching of Jesus is - What good would it do if you gave all your goods to the poor and you still did not have “love”, it would profit nothing. Q3. Why did Mary do this? To give honor to a guest, one would anoint their head with oil, when Mary anointed the feet of Jesus, she displayed to him and to those there of her “devotion”; it was because of her love and devotion that Jesus spoke these words “For in pouring this fragrant oil on My Body, she did it for My burial, therefore, wherever this gospel is preached in the world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”

Q5. (John 11:49-53). What did Caiaphas intend to say to the Sanhedrin? Caiaphas, a Sadducee, was a liberal who did not believe in the resurrection, therefore, he did not have faith that Jesus was the promised Messiah, and now with so many Jews who did, Caiaphas saw this as a threat to the nation, a nation that at this time did have a working relationship with the oppressive foreign power of Rome – His intensions were - “instead of the people” it would be better for us to ensure he is put to death than to have thousands of our people die at the hands of the Romans. Q6. What is the prophetic meaning of his statement? The prophetic meaning goes much deeper as it would fulfill (Isaiah 53:6) All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. Jesus would pay the price, the death penalty for sin in lieu of and on behalf of Israel, “AND” also on behalf of non-Jews as we read (V52) And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. I am so glad that He included me.

Q4. (John 11:32-38) Different writers interpret Jesus' emotions on this occasion differently. Why do you think Jesus was "deeply moved" and why did he weep? What a joy it must have been for Jesus when he was greeted by Martha and he saw her great “FAITH”! Jesus then asked to see Mary, it was after Jesus met with Mary and he saw she and the Jews with her were weeping because Lazarus had died and he was in the grave, that Jesus “groaned” in his spirit, (groaned means indignation) that he was offended. Mary was weeping because she was mourning the death of her brother, whom Jesus loved, to be in mourning was a sign that Mary had given up all hope, she came to grips with the fact her brother was dead, there was also a spirit of unbelief that filled the air as insulting words were spoken “Could not this man who opened blind eyes, have caused that this man should not have died”? --That Jesus became troubled and disturbed. I believe the reason Jesus ”WEPT” was because of “UNBLIEF”! I too weep because the voice of unbelief seems to fill the air of America, She who once held dear God’s “Commandments”.

Q3. (John 11:27) Based on Luke 10:38-42, what is Martha's reputation compared to that of her sister Mary? I can relate to some degree with the personality of Martha, more than I can with the personality of Mary. It is a well known fact that we all have different personalities and body makeup, Martha may have been more of a perfectionist, while Mary’s personality may have been more easy going, therefore, Mary was more able to take life in its stride; The lesson I gleaned and am still working on comes from the wisdom of truth the Messiah spoke to Martha when he said, “Martha, Martha, you are “CAREFUL” and “TROUBLED” about “MANY” things: But one thing is needful (required) and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her. It was Martha’s personality, not her faith, that made it easier for “WORRY” to come in, and if worry is not checked, it can easily take control. There is a difference between “worry” and “concerns.” Martha did not check her concerns, therefore, she being Martha allowed herself to become “careful”, the word is (merimnaō) – and it means to be anxious about: - to take thought, Martha’s anxiety lead to her being troubled, (disturbed) about many things – This lesson takes me back to a lesson on worry in (Matthew 6:25) Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought, (merimnao) for your life = be not careful, anxious (like Martha was) what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor for your body, what you will put on. Jesus was helping Martha to understand the “one thing” not good was - she allowed the concerns of life to overcome her, to take first place in her life, this is why she became disturbed and troubled about many things, and in so doing, she lost sight of the most important part of the day, resting in Him, being with Him. There is one thing that is required of us, that we not let the cares of this life take control. This is a lesson my “personality” is working on, but there is good news, I am doing much better and I am thankful to God for that. Q4. What does this tell us about her? As soon as Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, while Mary sat in the house, the custom in that day was to sit in mourning for seven days, they would sit on the floor or on a low stool and would abstain from all ordinary work and diversions, while friends would come and visit in order to comfort and to pray with them. Martha understood the lesson Yeshua, Jesus taught her in (Luke 10:41-42) not to allow the cares of life to take control, therefore, Martha set customs aside and left the house, as she eagerly went out to greet him. Q5. Which of the sisters seems more spiritual on this day -- Martha or Mary? It would be a big mistake for me to try to make a judgment call between these sisters who loved Jesus and who were both loved by Him, however, I do see great spiritual growth in Martha, I see she learned to lay aside the anxieties of life as she joyfully went out to greet Jesus saying, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died, but I “KNOW”, even still, whatsoever you will ask of God, God will give it to you. (V21-22)

Q2. (John 11:25-26) In what sense does Jesus embody resurrection, and life? To embody means to represent something, or to set an example, however, what Jesus is saying here has a far deeper meaning than that of representation, it is because of who he is, (I AM) that he proclaims - resurrection, and life resides bodily in him. It is because (5:19) the Son does nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do, it is because the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things, that he will do even greater works, works so great that man will marvel: Because the Absolute embodies the Son is why he proclaims, "I AM" the resurrection and the life, "I AM" the bread of life, "I AM" the light of the world, "I AM" the gate, "I AM" the good shepherd, "I AM" the way and the truth and the life, I "AM" the real vine, to name a few, however, my heart loves to read over and over again (Revelation 17-18) Fear not; "I AM" the first and the last, he that lived, and was dead; and, "I AM" alive for evermore, and I have the keys of hell and death. However, how sad for those who have not embodied the great “I AM”, the one who has the keys of hell and death in their life, especially now for signs of his coming are drawing near, is why my heart cries out to them, "Woe is me".

Q1. (John 11:16) What does verse 16 teach us about Thomas's character? What verse 16 teaches me about Thomas’s character is, he is a man who speaks frankly and openly, he is who he is, and I like that, I prefer to be around those who you know are genuine, and not like others who speak empty words in order to just please and fit in; I see a man who is willing to follow, even if it might bring death, a man whose character shows “LOYALTY”. Q2. What does it teach us about his faith? Thomas appears to believe in the resurrection as the Pharisees did, the Pharisees believed in an after-life, in the resurrection, they believed God will punish the wicked and will reward the righteous in the world to come, they also believe in a messiah, who would herald in an era of world peace, as opposed to the “LIBERAL FAITH” of the Sadducees, who did not believe in the resurrection; However, the difference of Thomas’s faith from these Pharisees was - Thomas placed his faith in the “PERSON” of Yeshua, (Jesus) as he spoke clearly a voice of “FAITH” and he said unto his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him”.

Q1. (John 10:3-4) What does it mean that Jesus' sheep "know his voice"? Those that “know his voice” are those who believe he is who he says he is, it’s meaning goes deeper than just believing, it means they will follow in obedience, therefore, they will be faithful. Q2. How can you discern his voice from your own thoughts and the expectations of others? The Bible is my guide in discerning his voice, as the Son speaks for the Father. What is disturbing to me is that many believers today have gone astray and are not able to discern the voice of God, from the voice of society, they appear to be lukewarm to the precepts of God, and have lost their song, “I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight” (Psalm 119:174) as far too many have fallen to the “expectations of society” and have ears to hear their voice that calls black, white, and white, black.

Q3. (John 9:35-38) Why did Jesus go looking for the man he had healed? When Jesus heard they cast the man he healed out, banning him from the synagogue, treating him as if he were dead is why Jesus went looking for him. The road of salvation is not “ALWAYS” an easy road as some would declare, in fact; it is a road that many do not want to follow because it is a narrow road. Q4. What were the healed man's level of openness and his level of faith? His level of openness and faith was now at an all time great level. – This man’s openness began while he was still blind and he allowed this man they called Jesus to rub clay of spittle on his eyes, it was because of his openness that we see his “FAITH” come alive and he went and washed the clay off his eyes. Faith like that of Abraham’s is called “trusting” faith, faith that is proved through obedience, this man’s faith was revealed in his obedience to what Jesus said, therefore he went to the pool of Siloam and washed it off, that he received his sight. Q5. What was his knowledge? It was because of his knowledge that his faith was at an all time high, for the one thing he “KNEW”, he was once blind, but now he could see. His level of knowledge was enough to face those of higher learning and to speak words of great wisdom to them, “Since the world began was it not heard that any man healed the eyes of one that was born blind, if this man were not of God, he could do nothing” I often am amazed at those who seem to have much knowledge, and yet am blind to that knowledge as these Pharisees were.

Q2. (John 9:6). Why do you think Jesus healed in different ways, laying on of hands, command, mud on eyes, fingers in ears, etc.? God’s ways are not mans ways; however, they are always the perfect way. Q3. How much do you think was at his Father's direction (5:19, 30; 12:49)? The Son came to do the will of the Father; this is why he does nothing of himself, because his desire is to do what the Father taught him. Q4. Why is it important to seek God's guidance in how we should minister to a person? The reason it is important is because our delight is in doing the will of God, there is no power in the works of man unless it is directed by God.

Q1. (John 9:1-3) Is sin always the cause of sickness or affliction? No, sin is not always the cause of sickness or affliction; Jesus answered and said, “No” his blindness was not that of this man’s sin, nor was it of his parents. Q2. What are some of the good results that come out of the sicknesses and afflictions of godly people? Joni Eareckson Tada comes to my mind for she is a great witness to what can come out of “AFFLICTION” – her affliction of being paralyzed from the shoulders down after she misjudged the shallowness of the water and she dived into it. How sad it is to hear some people say, “she was not healed because of her “little” faith” – when in all reality, it is just the opposite, what came out of her affliction was and is a woman of “GREAT FAITH” – faith that developed stronger in spite of those times of anger, depression, and even religious doubts, for her faith was not placed in a weak God, her faith was placed in the Messiah, the Son of the Almighty God, it is because of “Who” her faith was placed in that she is “STANDING” strong, her battle is not over, for she is fighting third stage breast cancer and daily chronic pain. I once heard Joni ask this question, “Do any of you have battles you have fought, or are now fighting, that make you feel a little like that of Job, the man who Satan taunted God by saying, Job only loved God because of his blessings? I have found it is not on the mountain tops that we find growth, it is in the valleys. How sad it is that we hear so many pastors preaching a “FAITH” that is based on pleasing our needs, it is all about “ME”, and how I can become healthy, wealthy, and wise, but if there was ever a time that we need to hear what the Spirit is saying, it is today, there are great valleys ahead for the believer, we need to hear teachings on faith that produces “WHEAT” and not of “CHAFF” as Satan knows his time is short and he goes about taunting God that they the believers only love God because of his blessings; I want the “faith” like Job, a faith that will stand against the enemy and say, “Even if he slay me, yet will I trust Him”

Q4. (John 8:34-36) How does sinning enslave a person? It is the “WILL” of the people that enslaves them.

Q3. (John 8:31-32) What is the mark of a "real" disciple? After Jesus spoke these words of truth (V29) that God is his Father, it was He who sent him and that the Father was with him, and after Jesus spoke on the importance of “OBEDIENCE” by setting the example and proclaiming ”He always does things that pleases the Father,” that many of the Jews believed on him, it was then that Jesus brought another important teaching of truth - “IF” - a conditional particle, if you continue in my word, to stay and to walk in “faith” will you be marked as a real disciple, student of mine. The poplar quotation, “You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free,” is conditioned on obeying what the Messiah says, which is more than mentally acknowledging who he is. Q4. What does it mean to "continue" in Jesus' word? They will know us by our “fruits”; our walk in life will proclaim God’s “truth”. Q5. What truth sets us free? God’s truth is a “light” before our path, it shines a light on darkness, that of sin, setting us free from ignorance and the philosophy of man.

Q2. (John 8:21-24) What does it mean to "die in your sins"? God sent his Son to light the way for man to walk, and for those who place their trust in him, they will not “die in their sins”, but will have everlasting life. Q3. What is the consequence of this? The consequences of sin are “DEATH”. It is sad to see in the world “TODAY” mankind dying in their sins, as we witness them trampling on God’s commandments, because their deeds are evil, they hate God’s “Light”; John tells us in 3:20 it is because they prefer to walk in their own wisdom which is evil, is why they hate the “Light” - for their works will be reproved, admonished. The Messiah did not come the first time to condemn the world; however, there is coming a day when He will bring judgment and mankind we will understand more clearly what it truly means to “die in your sins”.

Q1. (John 8:12) In what sense is Jesus the Light of the World? What more appropriate time for Yeshua to proclaim, “He is the Light of the World” than on the last day of the Feast of Booths/Tabernacles, a pilgrim festival which all Jews were required to go up to Jerusalem, a feast that emphasizes salvation, illuminated by that of “light” the expectation of the Messiah to come, the “Light of the World”. Q2. What is Jesus' promise concerning light for his followers? The promise to those who follow after the Messiah is that they will walk in the newness of life. Q3. Exactly what does that mean for the way you live? We are to live a life that is worthy of our calling, our desire is to no longer walk in darkness, that of sin, how sad that many do not want to walk in the LIGHT, that of righteousness, because they prefer to walk in darkness, that of sin, however, for we who choose to walk in the “light”, we “WILL” not walk in darkness, that of lasciviousness, greediness and pride, for our calling is walk in God’s commandments, the reason being, is that the “LIGHT” as written them on our circumcised hearts. What a joy it is to follow after the Light, it is not a yoke.

Q3. (John 8:3-8) Why do you think Jesus wrote on the ground? I do not have a clue to what he wrote, but I do know, God’s word is all powerful and able to change a person. Q4. Was the content of his writing important to the story? The writing of God’s word is an all powerful source, and yes, I do believe it was of great importance. Q5. What effect did this have on the situation? The effect was seen in these men as the Bible tells us they were “convicted” and had to leave, in a way they saw “the writing on the wall”.
