by atozmom, posted in BSF John's Gospel: The Truth 2023/2024

Summary of John 16:16-33

Jesus tells his disciples he is about to die, but he will resurrect for them (they did not understand this at the time.)

God will give you whatever you ask in Jesus’ name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. God loves you because you have believed in Jesus. You will be scattered, but you will have Jesus. You will have peace even when you have troubles, for Jesus has overcome.

11a) “In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me.” ‘Because I am going to the Father’?

b) They will weep and mourn, but their grief will turn into joy. He gives them the analogy of a woman giving birth. Birth is painful but afterwards, she has her baby, and she forgets all about the pain.

c) His resurrection and reappearance to them.

12a) Jesus will tell you plainly about God. In that day you will ask in my name.  The Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God. In essence, there will be no barrier to God any more.

b) Jesus knows all things and that you do not even need to have anyone ask you questions. This makes us believe that you came from God.

c) God has all of it, so we don’t have to. We cannot control others or what happens around us; all we can control is ourselves. This offers us peace.

13) We can overcome our troubles because Jesus has already done so. He gives us the strength we need, so we can have peace.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 21, Day 5: John 16:16-33

We have strength through the power of Jesus, and we have peace because of it.

End Notes BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 21, Day 5: John 16:16-33

The disciples needed to be prepared for the coming crisis. He knew their sorrow would become joy. There would be greater joy when the disciples had access to God after his death.

Jesus’ death gives us access to God. God loves us.

Jesus is God who came to the world as man, would die, and then rise again.

God is always with Jesus.

Jesus offered his disciples peace and said they would have troubles. He left, but overcame all for us, giving us peace.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 21, Day 2: John 15:26-16:7

by atozmom, posted in BSF John's Gospel: The Truth 2023/2024

Summary of John 15:26-16:7

The Holy Spirit will testify about Jesus. Jesus warns his disciples that they will be persecuted and put out of the church. He has to go away so that the Holy Spirit will come and be with them.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 21, Day 2: John 15:26-16:7

3a) Advocate: reveals that the Holy Spirit will speak for them to the Father. Spirit of Truth: reveals that the Holy Spirit will speak truth to them/you.

b) The Holy Trinity work together for our good so that we can be close to God forever. The job of the Holy Spirit is to tell us and show us who Jesus is. Jesus intervenes on our behalf, so we can be with God. Being with God is the end-all.

4a) The disciples will be put out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God. They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.

b) Be prepared for it. Pray about it when it happens. Ask for the power of the Holy Spirit to help and intervene.

c) Jesus loves believers. He wants us to be prepared for hardships, and he equips us with the tools to persevere through them.

5a)  It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

b) Gosh, too many to list here. He guides me in all of my griefs and struggles, and I lean on His understanding not my own for them.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 21, Day 2: John 15:26-16:7

I love how God always provides for our needs by giving us everything we need to make it through this world.

End Notes BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 21, Day 2: John 15:26-16:7

John 13-17 is Jesus’ instruction and prayer for the disciples and for us.

Jesus warned his disciples of the coming persecution, so they could be prepared for it and fortify themselves and not stumble on their mission to spread the Gospel.

Recall that Peter had asked this question (John 13:36) and Thomas (John 14:5).

Despite all the grief and suffering, the disciples would be better when Jesus left them. They will grow in Christ, and the Holy Spirit would come.

Now, Jesus could be with every believer all the time. We understand him better because he is with us and we have his words. We have a way to and a relationship with God.

The Holy Spirit can only come if Jesus left. We need the power of the Holy Spirit to accomplish the work God has for us.
