Thank you so much for being with us today. Pastor Bennett has had a few health issues since our last episode, and I've been on a bit of a hiatus myself since season 12 of the Lifespring Family Audio Bible wrapped up at the end of August. For today's episode, Pastor Bennett is again in chapter 1 of the Gospel of John. And why not? John, chapter 1 is one of the most beautiful and important chapters in the Bible that speaks of the divinity of Christ. Pastor Bennett talks about that, and at the end of his message today he has a timely exhortation for those of us who call Jesus, Lord. So if you have your Bible with you, let's read along with our pastor. Pastor Bennett, welcome back. MEL BENNETT - 1:04We're going to begin a series of Bible studies on the Gospel of John today, and trust that they will be a rich blessing to you as we bring them. We're studying in John chapter number 1, verses 7 through 9, and ask you to get your Bible out and follow along with us as we study today. “(1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (2) He was in the beginning with God. (3) All things were made through Him, and without Him…" - Get that. - "without him nothing was made that was made. (4) In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. (5) And the light shines in darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. "(6) There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. (7) This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe." Now, notice again what is said there: That ALL through him might believe. "(8) He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of the Light. (9) That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.” And so Jesus Christ came as the Light. John wrote his gospel in approximately 58 AD. At this time, John was the only one left of the… all the apostles. All the others had been killed for their preaching of the Gospel. For John the Revelator, to declare that Jesus was God, and with God, in the beginning, was blasphemy of the worst kind among Jews in his day. So John had great courage in presenting his Gospel. I can only say, "Wow, what boldness!" But John boldly proclaims that Jesus is God's incarnate man. He not only is with God, but, in fact, is God and he is the great Creator of all things. He is the one who brought them into existence.

The coming of the Spirit, and the first disciples is what we're going to discuss. And we go to John chapter, number one, verses 32 through 35. Let's begin reading at verse number 32. (32) And John bore witness, saying, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him. (33) I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’ (34) And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.” Something happened at the baptism of Jesus, which convinced John the Baptist beyond all doubt that Jesus was the Son of God. At the baptism of Jesus, the Spirit of God came upon him with power. John says he saw this in the form of a dove. A dove to a Jew was a sacred bird, neither hunted nor eaten. The picture of a dove was one which the Jew both knew and loved. Remember at this time the Christian doctrine and realization of the Spirit had not yet come in to being. When John the Baptist spoke of the Spirit coming upon Jesus, he was thinking in Jewish terms of that day. What was the Jewish idea of the spirit? The Jewish word for spirit is “ruach”, R-U-A-C-H which means “wind”. To the Jews there were always three basic ideas of the Spirit. The Spirit was power, power like a mighty rushing wind. The spirit was life, secondly. The very center and soul and essence of life, the very dynamic of the existence of man was through the Spirit of God. Thirdly, the spirit was God, the power and the life of the spirit was beyond mere human achievement and attainment, the coming of the spirit into a man's life was the coming of God. Above all, it was the spirit who controlled the prophets and ...
