20/20 Focus on JESUS

20/20 Focus on JESUS
Each day we need to keep our eyes focused on JESUS - 20/20! I am sorry that I did not continue this blog into the beginning of 2021. Nine months passed by before I was convicted to return to this blog and encourage us to look at JESUS, with clear vision, via a daily scripture reading. Yellow highlights are names/descriptions of JESUS that we'll add to the list on the right.

2020 for JESUS - Day 96: JESUS is FROM ABOVE... NOT OF THIS WORLD... SON OF MAN... DOES NOTHING ON HIS OWN... SPEAKS JUST WHAT THE FATHER TAUGHT HIM... ALWAYS DOES WHAT PLEASES THE FATHER...

I am going away and you will seek me


This is the 3rd section of 5 sections in John 8.  In verse 29 JESUS says that HE always pleased the FATHER; then, HE was sinless, because sin separates us from GOD:

21 Once more JESUS said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for ME, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come.”
22 This made the Jews ask, “Will HE kill HIMSELF? Is that why HE says, ‘Where I go, you cannot come’?”
23 But HE continued, “You are from below; I AM FROM ABOVE. You are of this world; I am not of this world. 
24 I told you that you would die in your sins; 
if you do not believe that I am HE, you will indeed die in your sins.”
25 “Who are YOU?” they asked.
“Just what I have been telling you from the beginning,” JESUS  replied. 
26 “I have much to say in judgment of you. But HE who sent ME is trustworthy, and what I have heard from HIM I tell the world.”
27 They did not understand that HE was telling them about HIS FATHER. 
28 So JESUS  said, “When you have lifted up the SON OF MAN, then you will know that I am HE and that I do nothing on MY own but speak just what THE FATHER has taught ME. 
29 The one who sent ME is with ME; HE has not left ME alone, for I always do what pleases HIM” 
30 Even as HE spoke, many believed in HIM.
