Rebellion. Rejection. Disdain.

The nations have long rejected God's rule in favor of their own. But why? What causes the nations to rage against God, and to plot so many vain things? In today's sermon, we'll consider mankind's ongoing rebellion and God's response.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) How do nations, leaders, and political parties foment their insurrection?

B) What does it mean that God 'sits' in Heaven and laughs at them?

C) In what way is Psalm 2 a 'Messianic' Psalm? What hope does it offer?

Why Do The Nations Rage Against God

Motives matter.

For example, some people pursued Christ with good, positive intentions.

But others (like Judas Iscariot) had selfish or wicked motives.

What are your own motives in coming to Christ?

Is it for His glory and interests, or for yours?

That will be the focus of today's study in John 12.

John: The Motives Of Mankind

He let him die.

That's what the people were thinking.

Jesus heard that Lazarus was sick, and rather than go to him, He let him die.

But that's not what happened, was it?

Instead, Jesus allowed a difficult situation in order to bring about a miraculous outcome. We will consider that outcome in today's study of John 11.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) Why did Jesus wait so long to go to Lazarus?

B) Where is Jesus when His people need Him?

C) How does God bring good out of evil?

John: Lazarus And The Timing Of God

What makes a 'good' shepherd?

He doesn't run when the wolves come.

In John 10, Jesus faced all sorts of 'wolves.' From Pharisees, to Romans, to the Devil himself, Jesus was always in grave danger.

But so were His sheep!

And so, instead of running, Jesus faced the evils of this world on their behalf. Then, He drank down the cup of God's wrath on Calvary. Truly, there has never been a Shepherd like Jesus of Nazareth - the One who gave His life to save His flock.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) What two jobs do shepherds have?

B) Why did Jesus refer to 'sheep not of this fold?'

C) What are the implications of being a 'sheep?'
