“You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, you refuse to come to me that you may have life.” Jesus in John 5:39-40
There is still a popular derisive phrase people say to one another-“Get a life”!
Jesus may have been the first to utter this.
Though he was addressing religious leaders of his day, it applies ot us as well.
The religious guys look for life in how they studied and interpreted scripture. Jesus knows that in this day it is how we study and interpret philosophy some forms of philosophy today are:
Make all you can…can all you get … poison the rest
Pleasure is the greatest reassure
I am entitled to (fill in the blank (job, happiness, ease of life, to be respected…)
Jesus boldly but calmly states in John 14:6 . “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Forget religion, Jesus bids us come for relationship.
