Joshua 23 & 24, John 3:22-36, Psalms 74:1-9
John 3: 34-35 (ESV)
“For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for he
gives the Spirit without measure. The Father loves the Son and has given all
things into his hand.”
In verses 34 and 35 from John 3, John the Baptist tells us
we know that Jesus was sent from God because the says the same things as God. Jesus
also has the Holy Spirit fully within in because he comes from God. Since Jesus
is the son of God, God has given Christ authority over all things. I love these
verses from John the Baptist. Jesus was able to perform so many miracles
because he had God’s authority. These verses also point to the concept of the
Trinity; that God the father, Jesus the son, and Holy Spirit are one being. John
the Baptist mentions the Trinity in these verses. But we also know that even
though Jesus and God are the same being, Jesus was still subject to his father’s
will and divine plan while on earth and that even Jesus did not know fully the
plans of God.
