  • Sermons about 1 John 31 33 (2024)

    FAQs

    Why did John come baptizing with water according to John 1 31? ›

    Some scholars maintain that John belonged to the Essenes, a semi-ascetic Jewish sect who expected a messiah and practised ritual baptism. John used baptism as the central symbol or sacrament of his pre-messianic movement.

    How can you believe when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? ›

    John 5:44 in Other Translations

    44 How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? 44 No wonder you can't believe! For you gladly honor each other, but you don't care about the honor that comes from the one who alone is God.

    What does the Bible say about 1 John 3 3? ›

    Because believers have hope, and anticipate being with Jesus for eternity, they pursue a pure life. The goal of living a pure life is to be like Christ. He is pure, and believers seek to live like Him.

    Why did John say I did not know him? ›

    This repeats John the Baptist's comment (John 1:31) that he hadn't immediately recognized Jesus. Now, he partly explains why. The Baptist's directions from God were to baptize and preach repentance, waiting for the Messiah to appear (Matthew 3:1–3; Malachi 3:1).

    What does water symbolize in John? ›

    The water imagery in the Gospel of John reveals the power and presence of God uniquely embodied in Jesus as the Christ and Son of God, from incarnation to crucifixion and beyond into the lives of disciples across the ages.

    What was the purpose by which John came baptizing with water? ›

    Therefore, those who came to John in the wilderness for baptism were receiving forgiveness of sins because they were trusting in God's promise of a Messiah. They received water baptism as a sign of their repentance and their faith in God's promised Anointed One.

    What are three things the Bible teaches us about God's glory? ›

    • We glorify God when we believe by faith. ...
    • We glorify God when we are tender to his glory. ...
    • We glorify God when we bear spiritual fruit.

    How does God reveal his glory to us today? ›

    God's glory is the magnificence, worth, loveliness, and grandeur of his many perfections. God communicates his glory through his creation, image-bearers, providence, and redemptive acts. God's people respond by glorifying him. God receives glory and, through uniting his people to Christ, shares his glory with them.

    Who is 1 John written to? ›

    The audience for 1 John is not explicitly stated, but it appears from his writings that John wrote to believers (see 1 John 1:3–4; 2:12–14), perhaps those in Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey), where some historical sources say John may have lived and ministered in the late first century A.D.

    Who is John speaking to in 1 John 3? ›

    1 John challenges followers of Jesus to stay true to what they already believe. 2 John is a warning to a specific house church. And 3 John is written to Gaius, one member of a house church.

    What does 1 John 2 3 17 teach us about God? ›

    Upon reminding us that we are forgiven by God, have a relationship with God, and our victory is in God, John exhorts us not to be overly confident. We are still subject to temptation. John told us who to love (God and our Spiritual family). Now he tells us what not to love: the world.

    What does John chapter 1 verse 31 mean? ›

    Analysis. By, "I did not know him," John seems to be saying "do not think I affirm Jesus to be the Messiah for the sake of friendship, as if he were a friend; for I say I knew Him not. That is I never saw Him, before His baptism." Although notably John did perceive Him in his mother's womb.

    What does John chapter 1 verse 33 mean? ›

    Here, John is referring to the event when Jesus was baptized, and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in the form of a dove (Matthew 3:16). It was at that moment that John recognized Jesus as the one who would baptize with the Holy Ghost. This verse underscores the divine confirmation of Jesus' identity and his mission.

    What is the main message of John? ›

    In the Gospel of John, the central theme is the divine Logos, the word that was with God and that was God. This Logos became flesh and dwelt among men in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. John says nothing of a supernatural birth.

    Why did Jesus come to John to be baptized at the beginning of his ministry? ›

    We can look to the very words of Jesus for the answer to this question: Jesus was baptized because it was necessary for the fulfillment of all righteousness (Matthew 3:15). Jesus truly took our place in every way as the ultimate atonement for sin and death.

    Why did Jesus say John should baptize him? ›

    When Jesus comes to John, John hesitates to baptize him. John's is a baptism of repentance, and Jesus has nothing for which he needs to repent. Why then does Jesus insist on being baptized? By choosing to be baptized, Jesus fulfills all righteousness – preparing himself to be a perfect sacrifice for us.

    What was the purpose of St John's baptism? ›

    BAPTISM OF REPENTANCE

    The purpose of John's baptism was less for ritual purity according to the Mosaic Law, but instead for “repentance” (Acts 19:4), signaling that the people of Israel were unfit to meet the Messiah. John was the forerunner of Jesus' preaching of repentance.
