Scripture: “A Second Helping of Stones”

John 10:31-42

1. His Superabundant Energy

2. His Scriptural Explanation

3. His Sacred Essence

Joh 10:31 The Jews picked up stones again to stone him.
Joh 10:32 Jesus answered them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you going to stone me?”
Joh 10:33 The Jews answered him, “It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God.”
Joh 10:34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I said, you are gods’?
Joh 10:35 If he called them gods to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be broken—
Joh 10:36 do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?
Joh 10:37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me;
Joh 10:38 but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”
Joh 10:39 Again they sought to arrest him, but he escaped from their hands.
Joh 10:40 He went away again across the Jordan to the place where John had been baptizing at first, and there he remained.
Joh 10:41 And many came to him. And they said, “John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true.”
Joh 10:42 And many believed in him there.
