JOHN 5 18-29

    🍃🕊️02/06 - GospeL Verses 🕊️🍃

18 - This was why the leaders of the nation were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he loosening the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God.

     19 So Jesus told them, “Truly, the Son can do nothing of his own accord. But only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, is what the Son does as well. 20 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all which - he himself - is doing. And greater works than these will he show him, so you may wonder. 21 For as the Father raises the dead {“raises “the” dead, not raises their dead bodies, but literally them} and gives them life {a retuRn to being alive and aware, from a state of not being alive/aware}.

     So also, the Son gives life {and awareness} to whom he will. 22 For the Father doesn’t judge anyone, but has given all judgment to the Son, 23 that all may honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Truly, I tell you, whoever hears my word {message} and believes he who sent me, has enduring life. They do not come into judgment, but have passed over [metabainó - from meta - after or beyond, and baino - to go, to walk — (have) transitioned] from death to life.” [(My) WORD - logos - word, speech, message, account, reason, doctrine; reasoning expressed in words] {Jesus is the logos/message/reasoning/truth -> personified.}

     25 “Truly, I tell you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. {Now here - until Christ in us, we are reckoned as dead.} 26 For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself. 27 And he has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of Man” {became in a body like man, was raised as having an incorruptible, non entropic, and perfect body. Surely was saying something by eating with his disciples after he was raised. We do not yet know what manner/substance.. A higher body but still a literal and real body and being. Not only winds. “We shall be like him”.} 28 Don’t marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are - in the tombs - will hear his voice 29 and will come out {of the tombs/graves, out of the dust and lower part of the earth} those who have done good to the resurrection of life” {at his return/appearing and into his long second advent ..as helpers serving, called reigning, full scope version of his so brief first one?} “and those who have done evil [phaulos - evil, wicked, worthless, bad, base] into the resurrection of judgment” {into the GWT (great white throne) judgment/full discernment/proof  ‘day’ of “aionion kolasis”/eonian korrection (age of correction? See Fall holy days of Lev.23) on/during the “8th day” the “last Great Day” - Jn.12:32, 7:37, Lev.23:36; DOA for the initially doa.}
