John 8:48-59 - Audio
from CCF Sunday Messages · host Steve Feden
As we finish up John chapter 8--with this intense conversation between the Jewish/religious leaders and Jesus--Jesus finishes the chapter with a clear claim to be God. He says "before Abraham was, I AM" Even if you don't get the "language" of the I AM statement, you can see it was not lost on the religious leaders: they immediately picked up stones to stone Jesus for blasphemy. Instead of having a demon, as they had tried to slander him in verse 48, he was the exact opposite--He was and is God in the flesh and yet they mistook Him for a crazy or demon-possessed person! Help us to see clearly and not get defrauded by the lies we tell ourselves and the ones the world tells us!
