why is john 6:15 the death knell of premillennialism

Then, resuming the strain of verse John 1:14, we are told, in verseJohn 1:16; John 1:16, that "of his fulness have all we received." Observe, it is not (as is often very erroneously said or sung) a question of sins, but of the "sin" of the world. Under all changes, outwardly, He abode as from eternity the only-begotten Son in the bosom of the Father. John 1:29; John 1:29John 1:34; John 1:34) of John Baptist's testimony here named; the first day (ver. but. Yet before a miracle, as well as in the working of those which set forth His glory, it is evident that so far from its being a gradual growth, as it were, in His mind, He had, all simple and lowly though He were, the deep, calm, constant consciousness that He was God. But if the Spirit speaks of the Son of God, the law dwindles at once into the smallest possible proportions: everything yields to the honour the Father puts oil the Son. and they might the rather be induced to take such a step, since, Till then the Holy Ghost could not be so given only when Jesus was glorified, after redemption was a fact. One must be born again for God's kingdom a Jew for what was promised him, like another. In truth, Christian baptism did not yet exist, but only such as the disciples used, like John the Baptist; it was not instituted of Christ till after His resurrection, as it sets forth His death. it was no lack of testimony; their will was for present honour, and hostile to the glory of the only God. The issue of all is, that the will of man is the real cause and spring of enmity. Observe: not which was, but "which is." As the Lamb of God (of the Father it is not said), He has to do with the world. Art thou Elias? God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." The sound goes back and forth between a harder chime and a muffled chime. He could, therefore, tell them of heavenly things as readily as of earthly things; but the incredulity about the latter, shown in the wondering ignorance of the new birth as a requisite for God's kingdom, proved it was useless to tell of the former. If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? The healing of the courtier's son, sick and ready to die, is witness of what the Lord was actually doing among the despised of Israel. John 1:35-40) Our Lord acts as One fully conscious of His glory, as indeed He ever was. Besides this, goodness overflows, in that the Father is gathering children, and making worshippers. So it must be now; for God is revealed; and the Father in grace seeks true worshippers (be they Samaritans or Jews) to worship Him. 15 Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone. But it is important we should know how He entered the world. Here was One on earth who knew all secrets. Jesus, therefore, answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. How singularly is the glory of the Lord Jesus thus viewed, as invested with the testimony of God and its crown! (Ver. He that comes from above from heaven is above all. Just as distinct and beyond comparison is His testimony who, coming from heaven and above all, testifies what He saw and heard, however it might be rejected. "My Father worketh hitherto, and I work." Christ here, it will be noticed, is not so much the quickening agent as Son of God (John 5:1-47), but the object of faith as Son of man first incarnate, to be eaten; then dying and giving His flesh to be eaten, and His blood to be drank. It was worldliness in its worst shape, even to the point of turning the glory of Christ to a present account. This brings all to a point; for the woman says, "I know that Messiah cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things." Verse John 1:29 opens John's testimony to his disciples. John 3:17; John 3:17) This decides all before the execution of judgment, Every man's lot is made manifest by his attitude toward God's testimony concerning His Son. Heavenly things are set in evident contradistinction, and link themselves immediately here, as everywhere, with the cross as their correlative. He bows to, as he explains, the sovereign will of God. The thrust of Lindsey's book is two-fold: First, it espouses the premillennial theory of Christ's second coming. Nothing is said about the fan in His hand; nothing of His burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire. and the two disciples leave John for Jesus. Nay, therefore it was they, reasoning, denied Him to be God. Thus it is a kind of transitional fact for a most important part of our gospel, though still introductory. He is a divine person; His manhood brought no attainder to His rights as God. 13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. He who, living, was received for eternal life, is our meat and drink in dying, and gives us communion with His death. In short, the riches of God's grace are here according to the glory of the Son, and in the power of the Holy Ghost. And they asked him, What then? John 3:31-36) he speaks of His person in contrast with himself and all; of His testimony and of the result, both as to His own glory, and consequently also for the believer on, and the rejecter of, the Son. Still the eternal day alone will show out the full virtue of that which belongs to Jesus as the Lamb of God, who takes away the world's sin. One of the peculiarities of our gospel is, that we see the Lord from time to time (and, indeed, chiefly) in or near Jerusalem. So does his confession: Rabbi, thou art the Son of God: thou art the King of Israel. This is the marked effect on the third day (ver. 12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. 29) on which, as it were, Jesus speaks and acts in His grace as here shown on the earth. 05/28/2021 07:55 AM EDT. It finds, of course, a present application, and links itself with that activity of grace in which God is now sending out the gospel to any sinner and every sinner. The Lord, in the latter part of the chapter (verses John 6:27-58), contrasts the presentation of the truth of God in His person and work with all that pertained to the promises of Messiah. Here the unlimited scene is in view; not Israel, but the world. of Proud member Article Images Copyright 2023 Getty Images unless otherwise indicated. Therefore, it seems to me, He adds verse 24. None else could do either work: for here we see His great work on earth, and His heavenly power. "As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life." Observe, that blessed as the light is, being God's moral nature, truth is more than this, and is introduced by grace. The Jan. 6 commission's death knell. It is now eternal reality, and the name of Jesus Christ is that which puts all things to a final test. Thus we all not only receive of His fulness, (and what fulness illimitable was there not in Him!) thinking about a temporal kingdom, as the people, and might And worship is viewed both in moral nature and in the joy of communion doubly. The answer given by modern premillennial apologists usually suggests that premillennialism was overcome for illegitimate reasons. Jesus saw the man, and knowing that he was long thus, prompts the desire of healing, but brings out the despondency of unbelief. A greater work was in hand; and this, as the rest of the chapter shows us, not a Messiah lifted up, but the true bread given He who comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world; a dying, not a reigning, Son of man. Thus it is not only the person of our Lord viewed as divine, and coming down into the world. We have had his name introduced into each part of the preface of our evangelist. Verse John 6:15. (Verses John 7:19-23) What judgment could be less righteous? The man went off, and told the Jews that it was Jesus: and for this they persecuted Him, because He had done these things on the sabbath. Canon Law tells us to obey the old law, (Can. And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven." For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him." It was meet that so it should be; for, as a question of right, none could claim; and grace surpasses all expectation or thought of man, most of all of men accustomed to a round of religious ceremonial. None but a divine being could thus deal with the world. And Jesus answers, "I that speak unto thee am he." "In the consistory of Dec. 15, 1958 . (Verses John 5:13-16), A graver issue, however, was to be tried; for Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work. (Verse John 3:16), Let it not be passed by, that while the new birth or regeneration is declared to be essential to a part in the kingdom of God, the Lord in urging this intimates that He had not gone beyond the earthly things of that kingdom. It is the wider, universal glory of the Son of man (according toPsalms 8:1-9; Psalms 8:1-9); but the most striking part of it verified from that actual moment because of the glory of His person, which needed not the day of glory to command the attendance of the angels of God this mark, as Son of man. (Ver. The Father did not judge, but committed all judgment into the hands of the Son, because He is the Son of man. seize him in order that they might make him King. What more glorious proof than that the Holy Ghost is given not a certain defined power or gift, but the Holy Ghost Himself; for God gives not the Spirit by measure! "He was in the world, and the world was made by him." No charge could be remoter from the truth. (SeePsalms 2:1-12; Psalms 2:1-12) But the Lord tells him of greater things he, should see, and says to him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, henceforth (not "hereafter," but henceforth) ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of man. "But He said to them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of." into, very probably was the same he went up to before; the The sacrificial death of Him who is God goes far beyond the thought of Israel. The hour was one for faith, or unbelief. For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things that himself doeth: and he will show him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. It would not suit God, if it would suit man, that He, seeing all, should just pronounce on man's corruption, and then forthwith let him off with a bare pardon. (1-4) A crowd gathers to Jesus near the Sea of Galilee. This scene throws light on the use of in Matthew 11:12. The Lord, it is true, could and did go farther than the prophets: even if He taught on the same theme, He could speak with conscious divine dignity and knowledge (not merely what was assigned to an instrument or messenger). If He judges, it is not without full warning. There is no changing or bettering the old man; and, thanks be to God, the new does not degenerate or pass away. All is in the character of the Son of man. Nor was it yet complete. Nor was it from any indistinctness in the record, or in him who gave it. He who owns the reality of Christ's incarnation, receives most thankfully and adoringly from God the truth of redemption; he, on the contrary, who stumbles at redemption, has not really taken in the incarnation according to God's mind. (Ver. God never left Himself without witness; He did not even among the Gentiles, surely yet less in Israel. "No man hath seen God at any time: the only-begotten Son," etc. John 3:1-36 follows this up. All this, however, was abstract, whether as to the nature of the Word or as to the place of the Christian. It was not the time now to demonstrate in public power these coming, yea, then present truths. (Ver. The resurrection of the Lord is not more truly a demonstration of His power and glory, than the only deliverance for disciples from the thraldom of Jewish influence. For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: that all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. The great fact of the incarnation is brought before us "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only-begotten of the Father"). Judgment is the alternative for man: for God it is the resource to make good the glory of the Son, and in that nature, in and for which man blind to his own highest dignity dares to despise Him. 2. God orders matters so that a favoured teacher of men, favoured as none others were in Israel, should come to Jesus by night. Ringing of the death bells is done slowly and reverently. If His time was not yet come, their time was always ready. king; even took not his disciples with him, who were in the same way of It is not a message or a sign, however significant at the moment, which passes away as soon as heard or seen. , , . If she turned aside to questions of religion, with a mixture of desire to learn what had concerned and perplexed her, and of willingness to escape such a searching of her ways and heart, He did not refrain graciously to vouchsafe the revelation of God, that earthly worship was doomed, that the Father was to be worshipped, not an Unknown. Man, dead in sins, was the object of His grace; but then man's state was such, that it would have been derogatory to God had that life been communicated without the cross of Christ: the Son of man lifted up on it was the One in whom God dealt judicially with the evil estate of man, for the, full consequences of which He made Himself responsible. So on the last day, that great day of the feast (the eighth day, which witnessed of a resurrection glory outside this creation, now to be made good in the power of the Spirit before anything appears to sight), the Lord stands and cries, saying, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink." Further, it is connected intimately with the evidence of man's ruin by sin. Hence, after having first unmistakably laid down the necessity of the cross, He next shows the grace that was manifested in the gift of Jesus. , And this very circumstance is perhaps the cause, that nowhere do we read that Jesus, whilst He teas sojourning on the earth, entered, even though that town was very close to Jerusalem. Verse 15. "He must, increase, but I decrease." Her life is laid before her by His voice, and she confesses to Him that God Himself spoke to her in His words: "Sir [said she], I perceive that thou art a prophet." The distinctiveness of such a testimony to the Saviour's glory need hardly be pointed out. * The best text omits other expressions, evidently derived from verses John 1:15; John 1:30John 1:30. Man might pull Him down destroy Him, as far as man could, and surely to be the basis in God's hand of better blessing; but He was God, and in three days He would raise up this temple. Her testimony bore the impress of what had penetrated her soul, and would make way for all the rest in due time. To this last the Lord attaches the deepest importance. John 1:19-37; John 1:19-37) It is here presented historically. And as life is in the person of the Son, so God in sending Him meant not that the smallest uncertainty should exist for aught so momentous. John was not yet cast into prison. But this, however worthy of God, and indispensable for man, could not of itself give an adequate expression of what God is; because in this alone, neither His own love nor the glory of His Son finds due display. Were the Jews zealously keeping the sabbath? By MELANIE ZANONA. This we have had fully before. Here He is not portrayed as the Son of man who must be lifted up, but as the Son of God who was given. Now, it is no longer a question of nature, but of relationship; and hence it is not said simply the Word, but the Son, and the Son in the highest possible character, the only-begotten Son, distinguishing Him thus from any other who might, in a subordinate sense, be son of God "the only-begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father." "had it in their mind", as the Persic; to gather about him as one It is not merely or most of all a great prophet or witness: He is the Son; and the Father has given all things to be in His hand. They had eyes, but they saw not; ears had they, but they heard not, nor did they understand His glory. As to Himself, He does not go at that time to the feast of tabernacles; but later on He goes up "not openly, but as it were in secret" (verseJohn 7:10; John 7:10), and taught. (ver. And He did accept that place thoroughly, and in all its consequences. Could they, then, reject the Son, and merely miss this infinite blessing of life in Him? As being the omniscient God, who knew their hearts, and the Still the Lord refused the crown then: it was not the time or state for His reign. that we may give an answer to them that sent us. reasons of his departure, were to prevent the attempt; to show (Verses John 3:1-6), But the Lord goes farther, and bids Nicodemus not wonder at His insisting on this need. It is not a question of the law, but of hearing Christ's word, and believing Him who sent Christ: he that does so has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment; but is passed from death unto life. (Ver. Man, under law, proved powerless; and the greater the need, the less the ability to avail himself of such merciful intervention as God still, from time to time, kept up throughout the legal system. Christ did not wait till the time was fully come for the old things to pass away, and all to be made new. Resurrection will be the proof; the two-fold rising of the dead, not one, but two resurrections. This was necessary for the kingdom of God; not for some special place of glory, but for any and every part of God's kingdom. The contrasts are as strong, at least, as the resemblance with the healing of the centurion's servant in Matthew 13:1-58 and Luke 7:1-50, which some ancients and moderns have confounded with this, as they did Mary's anointing of Jesus with the sinful woman's in Luke 7:1-50. The Spirit of God uses that word; it is thus invariably in conversion. In a certain sense, the principle of John 4:1-54 was made true in the woman of Samaria, and in others who received Christ then. (Verses John 5:17-18). Did the dead (for so men are treated, not as alive under law) did they hear the voice of the Son of God? His joy was that of a friend of the Bridegroom (to whom, not to him, the bride belonged), and now fulfilled as he heard the Bridegroom's voice. How could either light or love rest in a scene of sin, darkness, and misery? . (Ver. (Ver. And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? (Verses John 4:20-30), The disciples marvelled that He spoke with the woman. Historically it was the second of three bells rung around death, the first being the passing bell to warn of impending death, and the last was the lych bell or corpse bell, which survives today as the funeral toll . Jesus Walks on the Sea. This only secures His honour in those that believe God's testimony to Him, the Son of God; and to these He gives life, everlasting life now, and exemption from judgment, in this acting in communion with the Father. As a weapon of conviction, most justly had it in the mind of the Lord Jesus the weightiest place, little as man thinks now-a-days of it. and proclaim him the King Messiah; place him at the head of them, However, we know that Jesus sat down at the right hand of the Father shortly after His resurrection and ascension (Hebrews 8:1; Revelation 4:2). It is our evangelist's way of indicating His Galilean sojourn; and this miracle is the particular subject that John was led by the Holy Ghost to take up. It was not that they were better than their neighbours. It was not so. Here, accordingly, it is not so much the means by which life is communicated, as the revelation of the full blessing of grace and communion with the Father and His Son by the Holy Ghost, in whom we are blessed. Still, such is the effect on man under law, that he could not take advantage of an adequate remedy. he would not. One must be born again. The close of the chapter shows us the Lord in Galilee. (ver. encourage them in this undertaking: the mountain Christ went It is not that He denies the truth of what they were thus desiring and attached to. Then a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His signs which He performed on those who were diseased. But as many as received him, to them gave he power [rather, authority, right, or title] to become children of God." He saw him under the fig tree. Do any believe on His name? for he that could do this, what was it he could not do? Meanwhile, for Christian worship, the hour was coming and in principle come, because He was there; and He who vindicated salvation as of the Jews, proves that it is now for Samaritans, or any who believed on account of His word. Fritzsche, p. 21). It is not merely a Messiah, who comes and offers Himself, as we find in other gospels, with most painstaking diligence, and presented to their responsibility; but here from the outset the question is viewed as closed. (Psalms 132:1-18) Then they wanted to make Him a king. John 7:24) They reason and are in utter uncertainty. If He spoke the truth, they were blasphemers. All rights reserved. Scripture is, or may be, before man always. Accordingly, if the law raised the question of righteousness in man, the cross of the Lord Jesus, typifying Him made sin, is the answer; and there has all been settled to the glory of God, the Lord Jesus having suffered all the inevitable consequences. (Ver. This is indispensable; for God is a Spirit, and so it cannot but be. Nevertheless, Christ did come to His own things, His proper, peculiar possession; for there were special relationships. It is His person as incarnate first, then in redemption giving His flesh to be eaten and His blood to be drank. Nothing in the slightest degree detracted from His own personal glory, and from the infinitely near relationship which He had had with the Father from all eternity. In Him was life for this scene of death; and it is of faith that it might be by grace. (Verses John 7:3-5) The Lord intimates the impossibility of anticipating the time of God; but then He does it as connected with His own personal glory. John 1:26-27; John 1:26-27) For himself he was not the Christ, but for Jesus he says no more. Further, John attests that he saw the Spirit descending like a dove, and abiding on Him the appointed token that He it is who baptizes with the Holy Ghost even the Son of God. So in the baptism with the Holy Ghost, who would pretend to such a power? By and by He will apply it to "that nation," the Jews, as to others also, and finally (always excepting the unbelieving and evil) to the entire system, the world. convinced of their mistaken notions of him as a temporal prince: All others prove not only that they are bad, but that they hate perfect goodness, and more than that, life and light the true light in the Word. Was this false and blasphemous in their eyes? Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment."
