'Admitting the Truth' - John 9:28-29

Then [the Jewish leaders cursed the man who had been healed of his blindness] and said, "You are [Jesus'] disciple, but we are disciples of Moses! We know God spoke to Moses, but we don't even know where this man comes from."

—John 9:28-29 NLT

Key Thought​

Sadly, about the only truthful thing the Jewish authorities said about Jesus in the whole episode was that they knew nothing about him. But, if they really knew Moses, as they said they did, they would have known Jesus. If they really knew God, they would have known Jesus. So many people reject Jesus because they don't really know him — church experiences, church people, or chosen lifestyles get in their way of knowing Jesus. As we seek to reach the lost, we must remember that the core, the essence, the truth we share is centered in Christ Jesus. Rather than getting lost in a lot of church mumbo jumbo, let's share Jesus with them. Let's help them see the Savior.

Today's Prayer​

Dear heavenly Father, thank you for sending Jesus. I know that he is your greatest message. Forgive me for the times that I have gotten lost in religious arguments and forgotten to share Jesus with those who need him. Bless my efforts to share Jesus with those who do not recognize him as their Lord and Savior. It's in Jesus' precious and mighty name that I pray. Amen.

I could handle a lot of things but I KNOW I COULD NOT HANDLE SOMEONE GOING TO HELL BECAUSE I DID NOT SHARE JESUS WITH THEM. I MUST TELL THEM OR GIVE THEM A GOSPLE TRACT AND PRAY THEY WILL MAKE JESUS THE LORD AND SAVIOR OF THEIR LIFE. IF ANYONE IS READING THIS AND YOU DO NOT KNOW JESUS AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR PLEASE KNOW CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS FOR YOU AND FOR ME AND HE HAS AND WILL FORGIVE YOU FOR YOUR SINS AND HELP YOU TO BEGIN A NEW LIFE JUST WHISPER JESUS NAME AND TELL HIMHOW SORRY YOU ARE. JESUS IS WAITING FOR YOU TO CRY OUT TO HIM. HE LOVED YOU ENOUGH TO DIE FOR YOU AND ME. GLORY TO GOD!!!!
