John 14:1-9


John 14:1-6:
1 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.
2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Colossians 1:16-17:
16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.
17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.



He is the way, the truth, and the life Himself. Jesus Christ is the One through Whom all things were created.



John 14:7-9:
7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”
8 Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?



Jesus Christ (the Son) shares the same divine essence as God the Father, so: "If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also". Jesus Christ's answer to Philip makes it very clear.

John 10:14


Jesus Christ:

John 10:14:
"I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own."

Promise in the Old Testament:

Ezekiel 34:11-12:
11‘For thus says the Lord God: “Indeed I Myself will search for My sheep and seek them out.
12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock on the day he is among his scattered sheep, so will I seek out My sheep and deliver them from all the places where they were scattered on a cloudy and dark day.



Promise in the Old Testament:

Jeremiah 23:1-2:
1 “Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of my pasture!” declares the Lord.
2 Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to the shepherds who tend my people: “Because you have scattered my flock and driven them away and have not bestowed care on them, I will bestow punishment on you for the evil you have done,” declares the Lord.
3 “I myself will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture, where they will be fruitful and increase in number.

Jesus Christ:

Matthew 9:36-38:
36 But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.
37 Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
38 Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”

And what did Jesus Christ do right after that? ->

Matthew 10:1-8:
1 And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.
...
5 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: “Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans.
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.



Promise in the Old Testament:

Isaiah 56:6-8:
6 “Also the sons of the foreigner
Who join themselves to the Lord, to serve Him
,
And to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants—
Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath,
And holds fast My covenant—
7 Even them I will bring to My holy mountain,
And make them joyful in My house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
Will be accepted on My altar;
For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.”
8 The Lord God, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says,
“Yet I will gather to him
Others besides those who are gathered to him.”

Jesus Christ:

John 10:14-16:
14I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own.
15 As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.
16 And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one shepherd.
John 10:27:
26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.
27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.



If the Lord God is the Shepherd (Ezekiel 34:11) ->

and Jesus Christ is also the Shepherd (John 10:14-16) ->

How it can be "one flock and ONE shepherd"? ->

Obviously, because the Eternal Son - Jesus Christ, is God Himself:


John 10:30:
30 I and My Father are one.”

John 9:6-7


John 9:6-7:
6 When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.
7 And He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.



Here can be a very strong connection between Christ's act in John 9:6-7 and God's creation process:

Genesis 2:7:
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
Job 10:9:
Remember, I pray, that You have made me like clay.
And will You turn me into dust again?
Isaiah 64:8:
Yet you, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.



Through the Eternal Word all people were made (John 1:1-3) from the dust:

John 1:1-3:
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
Colossians 1:16-17:
16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.
17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

Genesis 2:7:
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.



So He - Jesus Christ, used the same material (dust from the ground) made from it clay and shaped eyes of the blind man.



If you think that this explanation is out of context, etc., then just ask yourself the following questions: "What was the point of Christ's act in John 9:6-7?" and "What was He trying to convey by that?".

John 4:10,14


John 4:10,14:
10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
...
14 but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
Revelation 21:6:
He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life.
Jeremiah 17:13:
Lord, You are the hope of Israel;
all who forsake You will be put to shame.
Those who turn away from you will be written in the dust
because they have forsaken the Lord (Yᵊhōvâ),
the spring of living water
.



the Lord (Yᵊhōvâ) is called the spring of living water ->

Jesus Christ is also the One Who gives living water:


Revelation: 7:17:
For the Lamb at the center of the throne
will be their shepherd;

‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’
‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’”
Isaiah 49:10:
They shall neither hunger nor thirst,
Neither heat nor sun shall strike them;
For He who has mercy on them will lead them,
Even by the springs of water He will guide them.



"Moreover, Who else is associated with "living water"?

John 7:38-39:
38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” 39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.



And here we have:
The Father (Jeremiah 17:13)
the Son/Jesus Christ (John 4:10)
the Holy Spirit (John 7:38-39) ->

all three Persons are the spring of living water - the One Yᵊhōvâ.
