We Wish to See Jesus
from Solid Rock Church Sermons Hosted by Jason Williams
In this sermon, we looked at Jesus' response to a group of non-Jewish worshippers who wished to see Jesus and speak with Him. In John 12:20-32, we see that even before the cross, Jesus was drawing the nations to Himself. Jesus responds to this request from the Greek worshippers by pointing to the necessity of His upcoming death and resurrection. He uses a farming metaphor to explain that unless He is put to death, buried, and comes back to life, no lasting fruit will come from His time on earth. However, through the resurrection, God will multiply His Kingdom, reminding us that God’s plan for salvation has always included nations beyond Israel. The promise of the Gospel is this: anyone who calls upon the name of Jesus will be saved, regardless of nationality, ethnicity, or social status. When we profess Jesus as our Savior and our King, God forgives our sins, renders us as righteous, and adopts us into His family as citizens of His Kingdom.
