John
Chapter
7 (Continued)
{Note:
Part of the crowd now says, 'Think the rulers know He is Christ and
are just not telling us? (hehe) Then others who THINK they know
doctrine say but we know Him and where he comes
{Jesus
Reveals the Old Testament was a Shadow - Man Only knows God Through Him}
{Jesus
Protected Until Time for the Cross} {Note: There is no mention of human protection here for Jesus. RBT says this is most likely angelic protection until the time was at hand for Him to go to the cross.}
{Salvation
of Many in the Crowd} {Note: This is the aorist active indicative of pisteuo. This is faith. And faith is the only human system of thinking that is non-meritorious. Pisteuo also is a transitive verb. Aorist tense - at a point in time this happens. The point of time is taken out of time and perpetuated forever. Once you believe, you are saved and that is forever.}
{Pharisees
Upset Part of the Crowd is Defending Jesus}
{Verses
33-39: Revelation of God the Holy Spirit} {Note: Regardless of the temple police or Satan himself, Jesus will be protected until God calls Him home. Principal applies to all believers.}
34~~"You
will look for Me {Note: Believers and unbelievers will take this verse differently. Human nature says, "I want to see Jesus now personally". But, we do see Jesus today! The bible is the Mind of Christ. The 'cannot come' is for the unbelievers in the crowd.}
35~~Then
the Jews {Note: Where would He go? Maybe He will go where we would not even be seen! Sarcastic response that those lowly scum called Greeks will respond! Religion blasphemes . . . religion always blasphemes! This actually is a prophetic description of the ministry of the apostle Paul. Saul of Tarsus was a Pharisee and could very well have been in this crowd! He would become the apostle to the Gentiles and the greatest apostle of them all! The least becomes the greatest - grace.}
