A Critique of Practicing the Way
•
22m
In this episode we continue our discussion of the healing at Bethesda found in John 5 and include a brief overview of John 6. These passages clearly demonstrate the sin nature. The signs performed by Jesus signified that He was the true bread of life, and the true work of God was for them to believe in the One whom the Father sent.

Jesus called people to belief, not apprenticeship.
