John 3:22–36 - "Understanding Jesus’ Authority"

Understanding Jesus’ Authority – John 3:22–36We’re back in the Gospel of John.In this episode of Rooted in God’s Word, we pick up in John chapter 3 and walk through the closing section of the chapter in a message titled “Understanding Jesus’ Authority.”This passage brings us face to face with a question that every person must answer:Who truly has authority?In ministry…In the church…In your life…In eternity…As John the Baptist steps back and points clearly to Christ, we see what real humility and true understanding look like:“He must increase, but I must decrease.”This message unpacks the reality that Jesus is not just a teacher, not just a Savior, but Lord… with all authority given to Him by the Father.We explore:What it means to actually recognize Christ’s authorityThe difference between acknowledging Jesus and submitting to HimWhy authority in ministry must always belong to Christ, not manThe consequences of rejecting the SonAnd what daily surrender to Jesus truly looks likeThis is not just theology.This is a call to respond.Because Scripture is clear:Whoever believes in the Son has life…and whoever rejects Him remains under wrath.You can ignore Jesus’ authority for a time…but not forever.Listen in as we walk verse by verse through this powerful passage and are reminded that we are not called to evaluate Jesus…We are called to submit to Him.#GospelOfJohn #JesusAuthority #HeMustIncrease #BibleTeaching #ChristianPodcast #RootedInGodsWord #FaithInChrist #SubmitToChrist #LordshipOfJesus #TruthOfScripture #PreachTheWord #Discipleship #FollowJesus #EternalLife #John3 #BiblicalTruth #ChurchTeaching #SurrenderToGod
