  • Summary

    • We all come to life with an earthly heritage which defines us to some degree. But our earthly heritage is not what will ultimately define us.
      • Our spiritual heritage will, and we get to choose what that will be!
    • Setting the context for our passage:
      • In last week’s passage Jesus confronted with the Jews with the fact He knew they were planning to murder Him. But they don’t even recognize they are being called out!
        • Instead, they double down on trying to elevate “their” truth above “THE” truth.
          • So, Jesus decided to change His tactics…
            • Verse 39- “IF… you are children of Abraham…”


    • In verse 43 Jesus asks a rhetorical question: “Why don’t you understand what I say?”
      • He then answers His own question: “Because you can’t bear to hear my words!”
        • Why????


    • In verse 44 Jesus tells them why: “Because you are of your father the devil, and you will do what your father desires.”
      • Is this too harsh? Did the Jews choose the devil as their spiritual father?

    When a person does not choose Jesus, they by default, do not choose God!

      • But you have to choose something!
        • Not choosing is to choose the devil as your spiritual father.
          • Who do you choose???
