Lesson 3582

 (Lesson 3582)(10-24-21) John 16:30-33

    “His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God. Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”

    Today’s lesson tells us that the apostles, just before Christ was crucified, finally understood what He had been telling them. They also finally believed that Jesus was indeed sent by God to remit the sins of those who would believe in Him.

    This lesson clarifies why, today, there are so many who are reluctant to believe in Jesus Christ even after reading His word.

    I believe he mystery of the gospel becomes clear to a lost soul ONLY after the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ explains it.~
