John 8:21-30
Once more Jesus said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.”
But he continued, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am he, you will indeed die in your sins.”
They did not understand that he was telling them about his Father. So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing on my own but speak just what the Father has taught me. The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him.” Even as he spoke, many believed in him.
He goes on to strengthen his claims. Unlike everyone else, he knows where he comes from and where he is going. And he knows what lies ahead.
Why?
Jesus knew who he is and what is his mission. But the other Jewish didn't know so they asked such questions. When you believe you will know, but if don't you will die in your sins.
Jesu declared the judgment and bring salvation to this world. If anyone believed he will be freed from sins. This is good news for everyone.

指的是耶穌要復活。他去的地方是他們不能去的,指出人是從下頭來的,所看的只是不學無術又狂妄,眼光膚淺。只是從暫時的眼光,來看事情只看到耶穌是木匠的兒子。如此看事情就失去屬靈的福氣。不明白神,不認識彌賽亞。
猶太人的問題也是我們的問題,我們明明知道,神已經說的我們還在問,因為不是我要答案!我們是真的不明白神的答案,還是不認同那是神給的答案?以致一直在問在禱告!

How?
Turn to Jesus, focus on Him. Jesus is the Lord!
