Jesus Evoked Various Reactions
John 7:40-53
The prophet Micah had predicted the
Messiah would be born in Bethlehem.
John the Evangelist knew that Jesus
Had been born there, the city of David.
People who had not seen the miracles
of Jesus but who had heard Him preach felt
that He spoke in a most powerful way.
They said, “No man ever spoke like this man.”
Some people who had seen the miracles
And who had heard Him speak were opponents.
Believers tried to help unbelievers.
The unbelievers were too hard-hearted.
The title of Josh McDowell’s first book
Is “Evidence That Demands a Verdict.”
Patrick McCaskey
