Positive volition develops instinctive love for the Lord. John 12:1-3; Jer 17:7-8

Now in John 12 Jesus has returned to Judea for His final time, which would be His seventh.   Seven in the scriptures speaks of perfection and fulfillment.

Legislation against the laws of freedom will destroy a nation. John 11:51-57

John 11:51 Now this he did not say on his own initiative; but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation,   In verses 51 and 52 we have the parenthetical observation of John. This is to show that he knew Caiaphas and what Caiaphas was really...

Jesus has righteous indignation towards a lack of application of doctrine

John 11:32 Therefore, when Mary came where Jesus was, she saw Him, and fell at His feet, saying to Him, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died."   Mary has not lost her doctrine. An ECS doesn’t disintegrate in four days, but her bitterness has led her to judge Jesus like Martha did for not...

The Super-Grace Life- the status of the adult son who has achieved capacity. Eph 1:6

            Eph 1:6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.   So far in verse 6 we have exegeted the first clause:   eis epainon – to the over-praise or applause. Epainon speaks of...
