The Gospel of John Lesson 15
Chapter 14. The Father's House
The Son of God must depart but He promises to send the
Comforter,
l. Jesus, the Way to the Father's House, v. 1-6.
Faith in the Father and faith in the Son are essential.
v. 1.
A place prepared for us by the Lord Jesus. v. 2-3,
Heaven is a place, a city prepared by God, Cf. Heb.11:10,16.
Jesus is coming for His own. 1 Thes. 4:14-17.
"Where I am", The Presence of God in Christ is the Glory of
heaven.
He will come again and receive us so we may ever be with Him.
None but God could make the statement in John 14:6.
Jesus is the Way----no going without Him.
Jesus is the Truth--no knowing without Him,
Jesus is the Life --no living without Him.
There are not many ways to the Father, The Lord Jesus is the
only way. "No man cometh unto the Father, but by Me."
2. Jesus and the Father are one. v.7-14.
He that hath seen the Lord Jesus, hath seen the Father, Heb.
1:3, 2 Cor. 4:4, Col. 1:15, 2:9, He is the image of the
invisible God.
He is the Word of God (John 1:1-3), the Revelation of God to
man.
Jesus is In the Father and the Father is in Him. v. 10-11.
The words and works of the Lord Jesus are the Father's.
The Promise of Greater Works, by faith in the Lord Jesus and
because He has ascended and is glorified v. 12. This
promise will be completely fulfilled in the great revival in
the last days.
As Elisha received a double portion of the Spirit, so the
Church will receive her double portion of the Holy Ghost in
the final ministry in the and of this age. (Cf. 2 Kings 2:9).
This ministry will be bestowed because Christ is our
Intercessor at the right hand of God. It will come through
prayer in His Name. v. 13a. It's great purpose will be
that "The Father may be glorified in the Son. v. 13b. It
will come in answer to prayer. v. 14.
Love and obedience to the Lord Jesus are paramount. vs, 15.
3. The Coming of the Comforter Consoles, v. 15-31.
Love and obedience are necessary to receive the Holy
Spirit. Acts 5:32. The Holy Spirit is given in answer to the
request of the Lord Jesus to the Father.
Verse 16 reveals the Trinity.
(1) The Father,
(2) Jesus, the Son,
(3) Another Comforter, the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit will abide forever and will indwell the
believer. v.17.
The depth of fellowship in the Holy Spirit. v.20-26. The Holy
Ghost, the Comforter, to be sent by the Father in the Name of
the Lord Jesus Christ. v. 26.
He is the Great Teacher and Reminder.
Peace In the Holy Ghost, v. 27, Rom. 14:17.
The perfect obedience of the Son to the Father, manifesting
His love to the Father, is shown in Christ's death. v.
30-31.
