John 12:48Easy To Read VersionThere is a judge for the person that refuses to believe in me and does not accept what I say. The message I have taught will judge that person on the last day. See the chapter |
Then Jesus began to teach his followers that the Son of Man {\cf2\super [101]} must suffer many things. Jesus taught that the Son of Man would not be accepted by the older Jewish leaders, the leading priests, and the teachers of the law. Jesus taught that the Son of Man must be killed and then rise from death after three days.
God’s word {\cf2\super [34]} (message) is alive and working. His word is sharper than the sharpest sword. God’s word cuts all the way into us \{like a sword\}. It cuts deep to the place where the soul and the spirit are joined. God’s word cuts to the center of our joints and our bones. It judges the thoughts and feelings in our hearts.
