John 13:1-19 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world to the Father… I. GOD IS DOING SOMETHING FOR US. Every life is a little Bible — a revelation of God. Every. thing is from God. Life's meaning is God. II. WE KNOW NOT WHAT IT IS. We misinterpret the events of life — like Job's friends. It were better not to know. Yet we do "know in part" — have blind hints of the Divine meaning in our lives. III. WE SHALL KNOW HEREAFTER. The end explains all. "Face to face," "eye to eye." God, at last, will make plain all His providences. (George Elliot.) Parallel Verses KJV: Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. |
