Sermon Discussions - I AM: The Great I Am
Episode description
In this edition of UBC "Sermon Discussions" Jesse sits down with Dr. Jeremy Kimble to dive deeper into his sermon on John 8:28-59—I Am: Before Abraham Was, I AM
Main Claim: Jesus is the eternal, covenant-making God
Questions discussed in this episode:
What are some modern day religions or denominations that reject Jesus' divinity that we need to be aware of? And can we consider them to be Christian?
Most Jews (not all, but many) reject Jesus as Messiah, just like the people in this passage. How should we, as Christians, relate and interact with Jews who reject Jesus?
In your sermon you said our eternal life hangs on the claim that Jesus is divine. Does someone have to understand and embrace Jesus' divinity in order to be saved? Explain.
In John 8:44, Jesus told the crowds that their father was the devil. Does that mean that anyone who isn’t saved is actually a child of the devil, not of God?
In that verse, Jesus said that Satan was a liar and deceiver from the beginning. Could you explain more about what Jesus meant by that? Was it the reference to the garden of Eden or to something that occurred prior?
Why is it good that I feel insufficient to carry out the work of Jesus?
