Jesus Defends His Divinity

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 27, 2022

Shortly after Jesus healed the crippled man at the pool of Bethsaida (John 5:1-15), He was confronted by the religious officials who wanted Him dead for saying that God was His Father, making Himself equal withe God. Jesus responded with facts to back up His claim.

If there was an apt description of the attitude of the Pharisees towards the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 5:18), it is this, "There are none so blind as those who will not see". All throughout this account of the Lord's life and work and in the other Gospels as ...read more
