Do you know Jesus? No I mean do you really know Jesus?

Do you know Jesus? No I mean do you really know Jesus? His disciples, even though they had been with Him throughout His ministry, seen Him heal the sick, raise the dead, and cast out demons, questioned Him about the Way, and who He truly was.

Do you find yourself questioning some of the things Jesus has promised us?

It is easy to find ourselves falling into the same situation as Thomas and Philip, not just doubting, but just not holding onto who Jesus told us He was, and the things He promised.

When you feel the questions coming to mind, remember who He is and who He said we are through Him.

John 14:1-11
“Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. 2 There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? 3 When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.”

5 “No, we don’t know, Lord,” Thomas said. “We have no idea where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

6 Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. 7 If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!”

8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.”

9 Jesus replied, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still don’t know who I am? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking me to show him to you? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me. 11 Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of the work you have seen me do.
