March 20, 2016 | Pastor John Bayles | Palm Sunday: The Inseparable Unity | John 5:16-30



In this third discourse, John returns to the content of his opening prologue: namely the nature of the Word, the Son of God. This is much more than a man claiming to be God in some independent way from the established revelation of Scripture. The Jewish authorities were hoping that Jesus would simply say that He was a new God. This would be a clear line to a charge of blasphemy. However, He is awakening his hearers, His sheep, those who will hear and believe, to the very reason for His coming.
