#2 FIRST COMMUNION SERVICE Last week I was in John 13 talking about Judas Iscariot, the one who betrayed Christ. If you will remember he left the supper in the upper room and was not seen again until John 18 when he betrayed Christ in the garden of Gethsemane. In the meantime, in the absence of Judas, Jesus took the opportunity to talk to the other eleven disciples. He told them some pretty interesting things which he did not speak of when Judas was with them. Look at the last few verses in chapter 14. “Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and have nothing in me. But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.” That is the background for chapter 15. Chapter 15 starts with the term: “I am...” In Exodus 3:14 God told Moses “...I AM THAT I AM... say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.” In John 18:6 the men who came to take Jesus in the garden went backward and fell to the ground as soon as Jesus said: “...I am he...” I Am is another name for God and Jesus said in verse 1 of chapter 15: “I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.” A husbandman is a farmer. He is the one who owns the farm. Jesus said that He is the vine but His Father is the husbandman. There are two members of the Godhead here, but there is still only one God. Of all the religions of the world, only one believes in the Godhead. There are 3 religions which believe in 1 God: the Jewish, the Muslim, and the Christian. Out of those 3 we Christians are the only ones who believe that God is in 3 persons. There is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost. They are all omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresence. The Jews know that the first time God (capital “G” small “od”) is mentioned in Genesis in Hebrew it is as Elohim, a uni-plural noun. However, they say that plurality is only talking about His attributes: omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresence. But that does not always follow through even in that first chapter of Genesis. In verse 26 God (Elohim) said: “...Let us make man in our image, after our likeness...” In John 1:1;3 it states: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word
DR. CHARLES SMITH MT. ORAB BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH WWW.BBMTORAB.COM was with God, and the Word was God... All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” Verse 14: “And the Word was made flesh...” The Word was Jesus. Now, in John 15 Jesus was again trying to show them that there is more than one person in the Godhead; that He is the I AM and His Father sent Him. This was a mystery to them then and still is today. The Jews can not explain verse 1 of the 110th Psalm. They already had the name Elohim, which is a uni-plural noun, and here in this verse they have 2 more names. The first is LORD, all capitals, which is the same name as GOD with all capitals; it is the primary Hebrew name for God. This name is Jehovah. The second one is Lord with capital “L” and small “ord”. This name is Adonai. Jesus Himself questions the Jews on this verse in Psalms in Matthew 22: 41-46 and not one of them could answer Him. He was trying to tell show them that God did indeed have a Son and He was that Son and was equal with the Father. Psalm 110:1 states: “The LORD” (Jehovah) “said unto my Lord,” (Adonai) “Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.” You have Jehovah (God) telling Adonai (Lord); both names for God, to sit at His right hand. Jesus asked in Matthew why did David call Him his Lord (Adonai) when he was speaking of the Messiah? So you have in the Old Testament of the Bible, before Jesus ever came and died on the cross and rose again to be seated at the right hand of the Father, David calling the Messiah Lord. Now, God is in the process of making all the enemies of God the footstool of Jesus Christ. There is clearly a distinction between God the Father and God the Son but they are equal in all divine perfection!
