PFBC Notes

This week as I was read our daily readings, I came across a phrase that caught my attention. In John 5:28, Jesus said, "Do not be amazed at this." This passage is discussing His relationship with the Father and His right to judge at the coming day of judgment.

As I mulled that statement over, I began to wonder would I be amazed if Jesus came today for the first time. If I heard Him say this on a talk show, would I be amazed? Would you?

In today's world, we have all the means of communication, doors to loads of information, and many scientific ideas to explain most everything. If Jesus first appeared and did the miracles He did, would we actually believe they were real or would we think that He's the next greatest magician. I came to the conclusion that God's timing is perfect and the best time for Jesus to come the first time was 2,000 years ago since there is so much skepticism today. Yet, everything He taught and did is still relevant for us today. He is the only hope we have in our chaotic world.

As you read your Bible, think how you would react if you were there watching Jesus in person. Chew on it for awhile.

Onward and Upward!
