This is the second of a two part study on Jesus’ words in John 10:22-38. In response to the Jews accusing Jesus of making himself equal with God, Jesus quoted Psalm 82:6 “I said, you are gods.” What did Jesus mean by this and how did it help to answer his antagonists? Tim Young and Tom Colby find the answer in the context of Psalm 82. Follow this lead and you’ll see the wonder and beauty of Jesus’ response.
Episode Outline
Introduction
Previous podcast, setting the scene (John 10:22-24)
Jesus’ answer is quoting from Psalm 82:6
Understanding Psalm 82 and God Manifestation
Elohim = judges (Ex. 22:8-9; Deut. 1:16-17; 2 Chr. 19:5-7)
Using this to better understand Psa. 82:1,6. The judges were supposed to manifest God.
Relating this back to Jesus’ argument in John 10:34-36
Conclusion
This is how Jesus and the Father are one (John 10:38)
We too must strive to manifest God (John 17:20-22)
This is the first of a two part study on Jesus’ words in John 10:22-38. In verse 30 Jesus said, “I and the Father are one”. It’s important to understand the context of the argument Jesus is having with the Jews. Tom Colby and Tim Young spend some time unraveling the meaning of this phrase to reveal a very important Bible principle called God manifestation. This is the culmination of some of the studies we’ve been having this season. It is sure to make you appreciate the Lord Jesus Christ more and how we pray to be one with him as he is with the Father.
Episode Outline
Introduction
Previous podcasts on God manifestation… and now we study how it relates to Jesus using John 10:22-38
Setting the scene (John 10:22-24)
Jesus manifesting the name
The works I do in my Father’s name (John 10:25) cp. “I am come in my Father’s name (John 5:43-44)
Given a name above all names (Phil. 2:9-11)
What does it mean God and Jesus are one?
Not the Trinity. My Father is greater than all (v. 29) seems contradictory to “I and my Father are one” (v. 30). How do we explain this?
Comparing to Jesus’ prayer in chapter 17
Jesus’ manifested the name (17:6)
The oneness of the Father, Jesus and all believers (17:11, 21-26)
In this first of a two part study on Exodus 33 and 34, Stephen Macfarlane joins Tim Young to dig deeper into the record to see how Moses sought to know God. The divine name had been revealed earlier to Moses (see this podcast) but Moses still desired to know God more intimately. These chapters serve as key studies to show us how we too should seek after God, to know him and to manifest his name.
