from The Naz Church Podcast · host The Naz Church
Pastor David Morrison John 8:1-11 NLT - This story takes place when another impostor is teaching in the temple. Jesus in John 7 declares that He is the living water, He was declaring Himself the Messiah, and they wanted to arrest Him, but the guards wouldn't do it, saying "we've never heard anyone talk the way that He does.” - Jesus was the definition of an impostor to the religious leaders. Exodus 31:18 (NLT) - Was Jesus declaring His Divinity, reminding the religious leaders that just as the law was written by the finger of God, He now writes the law and supersedes their understanding of the law? Genesis 2:7 (NLT) - Was Jesus saying that He was the one who creates and gives life, and He will be the one who decides, and will not be allowed to be forced into a decision? Jeremiah 17:13 (NLT) - Was Jesus drawing on this prophecy in Jeremiah - that just as the religious pharisees had rejected Him as the living water, He was writing their names in dust to be forgotten? John 8:9-11 (NLT) - The accusers, caught in their own trap, walk away and it’s only her and Jesus. "Where are your accusers? Go and sin no more." - Besides being an incredible act of grace, paramount to the message of the good news of Jesus... what does this have to do with us? You need to know something today. You are not an impostor if you are living a called life. God has a calling for your life! He calls you into places of impact. He is calling you into relationships with other. He will lead you to places that you will never imagine! I belong where God is calling me to, and this calling is at the feet of Jesus. Its here at His feet that Jesus wants to deal with your accusers. You are no imposter. You are chosen, you are called, you have a purpose, you are loved, you are forgiven, you can experience grace. What keeps us from the wonder of a child in realizing that we don't have to have every step figured out, we just need to go - especially if that is where God is leading. Today you may be hearing the voices of your accusers, saying that you don't belong in church - l've done too many things wrong, l'm too far gone. Jesus wants to conform those today and invite you to Him. Today He is inviting you to His feet. He is calling you to shift your perspective....to a new view.
