v37-43 Jesus' disciples had to learn that they were nothing and that He was everything. For them, this must have been through painful experiences and encounters, of which this was another.
v43-56 The disciples struggle to understand what He was calling for, as they were bothered about their own success and glory. Jesus calls for us to deny self and take the road less travelled of humility.
Genesis 1-2
God's creation was perfectly formed. He knew exactly what was needed and when. He brought it all together perfectly. Man was created to relate to God and for this to be for the benefit of both.
God spoke and creation came into being. His Word is at the centre of everything.
Male and female are created to compliment each other and help, not attack and destroy.
Genesis 3
Satan's methods are devious. He distorts the truth and tells lies. Sinful steps are taken believing lies. Sins consequences are vast, serious and in some ways irreversible.
Responding with truth, from God's Word would have brought victory over potential sin.
The passage provides God's promise of future rescue and salvation.
