John 8:21-30 · Providence Baptist Church - Sermons

0:00
He has to have this eternal destiny in mind.
0:03
In John chapter 17, in verse 3, Jesus defines eternal life this way.
0:09
!
0:30
Their part is that they would be with God forever.
0:34
They thought that they were pleasers of God, and yet the opposite was true.
0:40
Whatever you can imagine might be most horrific about hell,
0:44
the worst thing will be exclusion from the place where God resides.
0:53
I earnestly hope that you do not want to die in your sin.
1:00
It is possible this morning that you just don't really care.
1:04
It's possible that you love your sin.
1:08
And I just want you to know that this is not a good position to stand in.
1:12
Your eternal destiny matters.
1:15
You should not want to die in your sin.
1:17
You should want to die clothed in the righteousness of Christ.
1:22
You should long for eternal life.
1:26
I hope that if someone were to tell you how to avoid a temporal and eternal life of misery,
1:35
that you would at least grant them a moment of your time, a bit of your attention.
1:43
Will you give me just some moments?
1:47
Hear the words that the scripture says.
1:49
What the Bible has to say about your eternal destiny has the potential to change your life forever.
2:01
Our outline for this text is going to follow John MacArthur's because I just thought it was so clever.
2:06
He often is.
2:07
This one especially so.
2:09
He titled the chapter on these verses in his commentary,
2:13
How to Die in Your Sins.
2:19
So the first way to die in your sins.
2:23
How to die in your sins.
2:24
Number one.
2:26
Be self-righteous.
2:28
Verse 22.
2:31
We note the response of the Jews.
2:34
They say,
2:35
Will he kill himself?
2:38
Since he says,
2:39
Where I am going,
2:41
you cannot come.
2:44
The religious leaders of Jesus' day were so confident in their righteousness
2:48
that they assumed heaven was their destination.
2:55
Jesus is saying,
2:56
I'm going to a different place than you're going.
2:58
And they so assumed they were going to heaven.
3:01
They ask sarcastically,
3:04
Will he kill himself?
3:06
Suggesting that where he was going was hell.
3:12
You see, the Jews had strong opinions about suicide.
3:16
The first century Jewish historian Josephus wrote,
3:19
Quote,
3:19
The souls of those whose hands have acted madly against themselves
3:24
are received by the darkest places in Hades.
3:29
End quote.
3:30
You have to understand that to see what they're doing as they respond in this way.
3:36
Will he kill himself?
3:37
Will he send himself to hell?
3:38
Because clearly,
3:40
He won't be where we are by his own proclamation.
3:44
They're being smug.
3:47
They can't imagine Jesus going to heaven and that they won't be there.
3:52
It's not possible.
3:55
Self-righteousness is a deadly deception.
3:59
Do you want to die in your sin?
4:03
Go on believing that you're good enough.
4:07
That somehow in your estimation,
4:09
you've tallied more marks on the good side than on the bad side.
4:14
Think that somehow God owes you something because you tried.
4:19
Proverbs 30 and verse 12 says,
4:24
There are those who are clean in their own eyes,
4:28
but are not washed of their filth.
4:33
Humility, rather, marks the saved.
4:37
Those who have repented of their sin and turned to Christ.
4:43
Jesus says in Matthew 5, verse 3,
4:46
Blessed are the poor in spirit.
4:49
Those who recognize their spiritual need,
4:53
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4:59
You want to die in your sin?
5:01
Be self-righteous.
5:04
Isn't it a great irony
5:05
that the men who had already decided to murder Jesus,
5:10
which decision had been made in previous chapters,
5:13
that they suggest that he may take his own life
5:15
and not inhabit the same place as them?
5:20
How self-righteous to think
5:21
that the murder of an innocent man
5:24
would gain them reward
5:25
and find them in a different place than he.
5:31
Secondly, how to die in your sins?
5:35
Be worldly.
5:38
Verse 23, he said to them,
5:39
You are from below.
5:41
I am from above.
5:44
You are of this world.
5:46
I am not of this world.
5:49
As Jesus points out his opponent's
5:51
different destination in verse 22,
5:54
here he points out their different origin.
5:58
The concept being presented by the word world
6:02
is an important one.
6:04
Jesus is not referring here
6:06
to the material world,
6:09
but to the immaterial,
6:11
spiritual realm
6:12
that opposes the kingdom of God,
6:16
the system of this world.
6:20
I thought this paragraph from John MacArthur
6:22
summed this very well.
6:23
He says,
6:24
Materialism, humanism,
6:27
immorality,
6:28
pride, and selfishness.
6:30
The lust of the flesh
6:31
and the lust of the eyes
6:33
and the boastful pride of life,
6:35
1 John 2.16,
6:37
are the world's hallmarks.
6:40
It is utterly opposed to divine truth,
6:43
righteousness,
6:44
virtue,
6:44
and holiness.
6:46
Its opinions are wrong.
6:47
Its aims are selfish.
6:49
Its pleasures are sinful.
6:51
Its influences are demoralizing.
6:54
Its politics are corrupt.
6:57
Its honors are empty.
6:58
Its smiles are phony.
7:00
Its love is false and fickle.
7:04
End quote.
7:06
The starting point of the Jews' animosity towards Jesus
7:11
is the fact that they are part of the world.
7:16
They walked,
7:18
following the course of this world,
7:20
following the prince of the power of the air,
7:22
the spirit that is now at work,
7:24
and the sons of disobedience,
7:26
Ephesians 2.
7:28
2.
7:29
This is why Jesus calls Satan their father.
7:35
Do you want to die in your sin?
7:38
Love this world.
7:41
Love the system that functions here.
7:44
Excuse me.
7:44
Listen to its falsehoods.
7:46
Believe that you are at the center of the universe,
7:50
that your emotions and whims define the truth,
7:53
that you can outwit God.
7:58
Instead,
7:59
we have to humble ourselves and submit ourselves
8:02
to God's word.
8:06
Third way to die in your sins.
8:09
Be unbelieving.
8:11
How to die in your sins.
8:13
Number three.
8:14
Be unbelieving.
8:18
Verse 24.
8:19
Jesus says,
8:20
I told you that you would die in your sins.
8:24
For unless you believe that I am he,
8:27
you will die in your sins.
8:30
For those of you who care and have been keeping up,
8:33
I think this is the chiastic center of this text.
8:37
Although,
8:38
Jim Hamilton disagrees.
8:40
And that was hard for me this week.
8:44
Maybe we can talk about it later.
8:48
I told you you would die in your sins,
8:50
for unless you believe that I am he,
8:52
you will die in your sins.
8:55
Unless you believe that I am he.
9:01
Isn't that an interesting phrase?
9:04
What specifically does the pronoun he refer to?
9:11
What's it referring back to?
9:15
I want to tell you,
9:15
my punchy response was to go back up the text
9:17
and start looking.
9:18
What does he mean when he's referring to the he?
9:20
Well,
9:22
the pronoun he
9:23
is not in the original Greek text.
9:28
It would be better
9:29
to render the phrase
9:31
unless you believe
9:34
that I am.
9:39
He's declaring himself to be deity.
9:42
It's not the first time that he's done this.
9:44
So if you want to include the pronoun,
9:46
I think he's going all the way back
9:49
to what he said in John chapter 5,
9:52
verse 17 and 18.
9:54
You may remember,
9:55
this is where some of this kicked off.
9:56
He said,
9:57
my father is working until now
9:58
and I am working.
10:02
And then verse 18 says this.
10:05
This was why the Jews were seeking
10:07
all the more to kill him.
10:09
Right?
10:10
There's their plan.
10:11
Why?
10:12
Because
10:13
not only was he breaking the Sabbath,
10:15
you remember he healed a man
10:16
at the Pool of Siloam,
10:17
but he was even calling God
10:20
his own father,
10:22
making himself
10:24
equal
10:25
with God.
10:27
That is exactly what he's doing here.
10:30
He is declaring
10:31
that he is
10:32
the I
10:33
Am.
10:34
The self-existent one.
10:36
Yahweh.
10:38
Later in verse 28,
10:39
he's going to refer to himself
10:40
as the
10:41
son of man.
10:42
The book of Daniel.
10:44
The one who will
10:44
reign at the father's
10:46
right hand over
10:48
the nations.
10:50
He is
10:51
unequivocally
10:52
doing that
10:53
very thing.
10:54
The thing that they're so
10:55
mad at him for doing,
10:56
that is exactly
10:57
what he is
10:58
doing.
11:00
And he says,
11:01
unless you believe
11:02
that I am,
11:05
you will die
11:06
in your sins.
11:08
Jesus is either
11:16
a liar,
11:18
he's a lunatic,
11:19
or he is
11:21
who he says
11:23
he is.
11:25
Do you want to die
11:27
in your sin?
11:29
Dismiss Jesus
11:30
as maniacal
11:31
or as a madman.
11:35
Dismiss him as that.
11:36
or
11:37
humbly receive him
11:40
as the great
11:42
I am.
11:46
The fourth way
11:47
to die
11:48
in your sins
11:48
is to be
11:49
willfully
11:50
ignorant.
11:53
Look at their response
11:54
in verse 25.
11:55
They said to him,
11:57
who are you?
12:00
Jesus said to them,
12:01
just what I have been
12:03
telling you
12:03
from the beginning.
12:04
It's like they want
12:06
to have a point
12:06
of contention
12:07
with him here,
12:08
and yet he has
12:08
already explained
12:10
to them
12:10
who he is.
12:14
They already
12:15
had the data
12:16
to believe
12:17
that he is
12:19
the I am.
12:20
To have the
12:21
forgiveness
12:22
of their sins,
12:23
and yet they
12:24
willfully
12:26
ignore him.
12:27
I want to
12:30
be brief
12:31
here.
12:31
I just want
12:32
to note
12:32
it,
12:32
just for the
12:33
sake of our
12:34
time.
12:36
They've had
12:37
enough to
12:38
place their
12:39
faith in
12:40
Christ.
12:41
They could
12:42
have approached
12:42
him as
12:43
Nicodemus did,
12:44
unsure and
12:46
curious.
12:47
They could
12:48
have asked
12:49
him honest
12:49
questions.
12:50
They could
12:50
have said,
12:51
these claims
12:52
you're making
12:52
are massive
12:53
claims.
12:54
You're claiming
12:54
to be God.
12:56
Tell us
12:56
more.
12:57
But this is
12:58
not their
12:59
approach to
12:59
him at all.
13:00
They are
13:00
positioning
13:02
to have
13:03
him killed.
13:05
They are
13:05
happy to
13:06
remain just
13:07
as they
13:08
are.
13:10
Self-righteous,
13:12
self-deluded,
13:14
unbelieving,
13:16
worldly,
13:17
sitting in
13:18
positions of
13:19
power,
13:20
trying to
13:21
play a
13:21
political game
13:22
with Rome.
13:24
They're so
13:25
happy to
13:26
see him
13:26
off the
13:28
scene.
13:30
They want
13:30
to get rid
13:31
of Jesus
13:31
as a
13:32
nuisance
13:33
to what
13:34
they have
13:34
going on.
13:37
Do you
13:37
want to
13:37
die in
13:38
your sin?
13:40
Ignore
13:40
everything you
13:41
have ever
13:41
heard about
13:42
Jesus.
13:44
Most of
13:45
you, I
13:45
would assume,
13:46
have grown
13:46
up hearing
13:47
about Jesus.
13:49
If nothing
13:50
else, you've
13:52
heard about
13:52
him.
13:52
I'll tell you
13:53
more here
13:54
in just
13:54
a moment.
13:56
You want
13:56
to die
13:56
in your
13:56
sin?
13:58
Ignore
13:58
everything
13:59
that I'm
14:00
going to
14:00
say to
14:00
you today.
14:04
But notice
14:05
the final
14:05
verse of
14:06
our text.
14:06
I'm
14:06
grateful for
14:07
verse 30.
14:08
It says,
14:08
as he was
14:09
saying these
14:11
things,
14:13
many
14:13
believed
14:15
saved in
14:16
him.
14:19
For those
14:19
of you who
14:20
have not
14:20
placed saving
14:22
faith in
14:24
Jesus Christ,
14:25
what if you
14:27
don't want to
14:28
die in your
14:29
sin?
14:30
What must you
14:32
do?
14:32
Or to state
14:33
it better,
14:33
what must you
14:34
believe to be
14:37
saved?
14:38
the Bible
14:40
gives us a
14:42
clear and
14:42
gracious
14:43
answer.
14:45
Zoom back
14:46
a bit from
14:46
it.
14:47
It begins
14:48
with God
14:49
himself.
14:51
The scripture
14:52
tells us that
14:52
in the beginning
14:53
God created
14:55
the heavens
14:56
and the
14:57
earth.
14:57
He's
14:58
over the
14:59
universe
14:59
and he is
15:00
perfectly
15:01
holy in
15:03
his character.
15:04
The prophet
15:05
Isaiah records
15:05
the angels
15:06
declaring before
15:07
him,
15:07
holy,
15:08
holy,
15:09
holy,
15:10
that thrice
15:10
repetition,
15:11
perfectly
15:12
holy,
15:13
is the
15:13
Lord of
15:14
hosts.
15:14
The whole
15:15
earth is
15:16
full of
15:18
his glory.
15:19
That's
15:19
Isaiah 6
15:20
verse 3.
15:22
Because
15:22
God is
15:23
holy,
15:25
set apart,
15:26
and he is
15:26
righteous,
15:29
he cannot
15:30
ignore
15:31
rebellion.
15:33
He cannot
15:34
dismiss
15:35
sin.
15:36
He cannot
15:36
be in
15:37
fellowship
15:38
with
15:39
rebels
15:39
to his
15:40
will.
15:42
His
15:42
justice
15:43
requires
15:43
that evil
15:44
be judged,
15:46
and every
15:47
human being
15:47
stands
15:48
accountable
15:49
before him.
15:51
The Bible
15:52
tells us that
15:53
humanity has
15:54
rebelled against
15:55
this holy
15:56
God.
15:56
It starts
15:57
in Genesis
15:58
chapter 3
15:59
and it carries
16:00
on to this
16:01
day.
16:03
Though we were
16:03
created to know
16:04
him and live
16:05
under his
16:05
good rule,
16:06
we have
16:06
all turned
16:08
away.
16:09
Scripture
16:09
says,
16:10
for all
16:11
have sinned
16:11
and fall
16:12
short of
16:13
the glory
16:13
of God.
16:15
Romans 3
16:15
23.
16:17
Every one
16:17
of us
16:18
guilty
16:19
before him.
16:21
Sin is
16:21
not just
16:22
some
16:23
weakness
16:23
or failure,
16:24
some minor
16:25
deficiency.
16:26
It's
16:27
rebellion.
16:27
It's declaring
16:28
God our
16:29
enemy,
16:30
the one who
16:30
created us.
16:31
calling him
16:33
no longer
16:34
our God,
16:35
our creator,
16:36
but that
16:37
is set
16:38
against us.
16:40
Each of
16:41
us has
16:41
broken
16:41
God's law
16:42
in thought,
16:43
in word,
16:44
in deed.
16:46
And because of
16:46
this rebellion,
16:47
the Bible says
16:48
the wages
16:49
of sin
16:50
is death.
16:52
Romans 6
16:52
23.
16:54
Death now,
16:55
death forevermore,
16:56
eternal separation
16:57
from God.
17:00
Sin leads
17:01
to physical
17:02
death and
17:02
ultimately to
17:03
eternal
17:03
death.
17:06
Left to
17:06
ourselves,
17:07
we cannot
17:07
right this
17:09
wrong.
17:11
No amount
17:11
of moral
17:12
effort or
17:13
religious activity
17:14
can remove
17:15
the guilt
17:16
of our
17:18
sin.
17:19
But the
17:20
good news
17:20
of the
17:21
gospel is
17:21
that God
17:22
has acted
17:23
to save
17:23
sinners.
17:25
In his
17:25
great love,
17:26
he has sent
17:26
his son
17:27
Jesus Christ
17:28
into the
17:29
world.
17:31
The
17:31
apostle Paul
17:31
writes,
17:32
but God
17:32
shows his
17:33
love for
17:33
us,
17:34
and that
17:35
while we
17:35
were still
17:36
sinners,
17:36
Christ
17:37
died for
17:38
us.
17:39
Romans 5
17:40
8.
17:41
Jesus
17:41
lived the
17:42
perfectly
17:43
righteous
17:43
life that
17:44
we have
17:44
failed to
17:45
live,
17:46
and then
17:46
he
17:46
willingly
17:47
went to
17:47
the cross
17:48
to bear
17:49
the penalty
17:49
of our
17:50
sin.
17:52
As the
17:52
apostle Peter
17:53
explains,
17:53
he himself
17:54
bore our
17:54
sins in
17:55
his body
17:56
on the
17:56
tree that
17:57
we might
17:58
die to
17:58
sin and
17:59
live to
18:00
righteousness.
18:01
1 Peter 2
18:02
and verse
18:03
24.
18:05
After his
18:05
crucifixion,
18:06
Jesus raised
18:07
from the
18:07
dead on
18:07
the third
18:08
day,
18:08
demonstrating
18:09
that his
18:09
sacrifice was
18:10
accepted and
18:11
that he has
18:11
conquered sin
18:13
and death
18:14
forever.
18:15
God
18:17
The Bible
18:17
calls every
18:19
person to
18:19
respond to
18:20
this good
18:21
news.
18:22
Jesus himself
18:23
proclaimed,
18:24
the time is
18:24
fulfilled and
18:25
the kingdom of
18:26
God is at
18:26
hand.
18:27
Repent and
18:28
believe in
18:30
the gospel.
18:31
Mark 1
18:31
15.
18:33
To repent
18:33
means to
18:34
turn away from
18:35
sin, to
18:36
change your
18:36
mind.
18:37
This is no
18:37
longer the
18:38
trajectory I
18:39
want to be
18:39
on.
18:39
I want to
18:40
go a
18:40
different way.
18:42
I'm not
18:42
going to live
18:43
for myself.
18:44
I want to
18:44
live for
18:45
God.
18:47
To believe
18:47
means to
18:48
place your
18:49
trust in
18:50
Jesus Christ
18:51
alone,
18:53
relying on
18:54
his life,
18:55
his death
18:55
and resurrection
18:56
as the only
18:57
basis for our
18:58
forgiveness and
18:59
acceptance before
19:00
God.
19:02
I used to use
19:02
an analogy with
19:03
my boys,
19:03
which I stole
19:04
from somebody,
19:05
I'm sure,
19:05
that we put
19:06
on Jesus like
19:07
a parachute and
19:08
we jump out
19:09
the plane.
19:10
We believe
19:10
he will catch
19:11
us and we
19:12
will,
19:13
not die.
19:14
We used to
19:14
practice jumping
19:15
out of the
19:15
plane off our
19:16
couch.
19:17
We put on
19:18
backpacks and
19:18
jump off the
19:19
plane.
19:19
That's what it
19:19
means to
19:20
believe.
19:20
We hold
19:21
on to him.
19:22
The promise
19:23
of scripture
19:23
is clear.
19:24
If you confess
19:25
with your mouth
19:25
that Jesus is
19:26
Lord and
19:27
believe in your
19:27
heart that God
19:28
raised him from
19:28
the dead,
19:29
you will be
19:30
saved.
19:31
Romans 10,
19:32
9.
19:34
Salvation is
19:34
not something we
19:35
earn by
19:36
religious effort.
19:38
Instead,
19:39
by grace,
19:39
you have been
19:40
saved through
19:41
faith.
19:42
This is the
19:42
gift of God,
19:43
not a result
19:44
of works,
19:45
so that no
19:46
one may boast.
19:47
Ephesians 2,
19:49
8 and 9.
19:51
So what must
19:52
you believe to
19:53
be saved?
19:53
You must
19:53
believe that
19:54
God is the
19:54
holy creator,
19:55
that you are
19:55
a sinner in
19:56
need of
19:56
forgiveness,
19:57
that Jesus
19:57
Christ died
19:58
and rose again
19:58
to save
19:59
sinners,
19:59
and that you
20:00
must repent
20:01
and trust in
20:01
him alone
20:02
for salvation.
20:03
salvation.
20:05
The Bible
20:05
gives this
20:07
gracious promise
20:08
to all who
20:09
respond in
20:09
faith.
20:11
Everyone who
20:11
calls on the
20:12
name of the
20:13
Lord will be
20:14
saved.
20:16
Romans 10,
20:17
13.
20:19
If you don't
20:20
want to die in
20:20
your sin,
20:22
repent and
20:23
believe that
20:24
Jesus is the
20:26
Christ.
20:27
for those of
20:29
you who have
20:30
placed saving
20:31
faith in
20:33
Jesus Christ.
20:35
Don't forget
20:36
the gospel for
20:36
you.
20:37
Once again,
20:38
we should never
20:38
grow tired of
20:39
hearing it.
20:39
It's a glorious
20:40
thing.
20:40
We should be
20:41
reminded of who
20:42
we once were
20:43
and now who
20:44
we are in
20:45
Jesus.
20:46
Never grow
20:47
cold, never
20:48
grow tired of
20:49
hearing this
20:50
glorious thing.
20:52
And secondly,
20:52
don't forget
20:53
the gospel for
20:55
others.
20:57
God is saving
20:58
a people for
20:59
his glory.
21:00
We want to
21:01
have God's
21:02
glory magnified
21:03
and we want to
21:04
be part of his
21:05
saving work in
21:06
the world.
21:08
So preach the
21:09
gospel to
21:10
anyone who
21:11
will listen to
21:11
you, to
21:12
your children
21:13
in your home,
21:14
to your
21:14
neighbors, to
21:15
your coworkers,
21:16
to your
21:16
extended family
21:17
members.
21:20
Follow a
21:21
simple outline.
21:22
It's what I
21:22
just presented
21:22
for you.
21:23
God, man,
21:24
Christ,
21:26
response.
21:28
It's not
21:28
difficult to
21:29
have conversations
21:30
about things
21:31
that you
21:32
love.
21:34
It's easy to
21:35
get into this
21:35
conversation,
21:36
particularly at
21:37
the man point.
21:39
Everybody's got
21:39
problems.
21:40
Everybody experiences
21:41
trouble in this
21:42
world.
21:42
Talk about the
21:43
fallence of the
21:43
world and then
21:44
back them up to
21:46
God, walk
21:47
through man, show
21:48
them Christ, ask
21:49
them to respond.
21:51
It's not a hard
21:52
thing to do.
21:55
Just do it.
21:56
Be faithful to
21:57
proclaim the
21:58
gospel.
21:59
Pray that God
21:59
will use your
22:00
gospel proclamation
22:01
to save souls.
22:04
You will not
22:05
logic anybody
22:08
into heaven.
22:10
It's not going to
22:11
happen.
22:12
Declare the gospel
22:12
to them.
22:13
I'm not
22:14
anti-apologetics.
22:16
We see Paul
22:18
reasoning with
22:19
people day by
22:20
day.
22:20
But it is not
22:22
the primary thing
22:23
that should be
22:23
done.
22:23
Help people put
22:24
down their guard,
22:26
lower their fists,
22:28
preach the gospel
22:29
to them.
22:30
Take them back
22:31
to their sinful
22:31
state.
22:32
Show them their
22:33
need of justification.
22:34
Present to them
22:35
Jesus.
22:39
Charles Spurgeon
22:40
once said, and
22:41
this is in your
22:42
bulletin if you
22:43
care to read it,
22:44
a great many
22:45
learned men are
22:46
defending the
22:48
gospel.
22:49
No doubt it is a
22:49
very proper and
22:50
right thing to do.
22:51
Yet I always
22:52
notice that when
22:54
there are most
22:54
books of that
22:55
kind, it is
22:56
because the
22:57
gospel itself is
22:59
not being
22:59
preached.
23:01
Stop it there
23:02
for a second.
23:04
You hear what
23:04
he's saying?
23:05
When we're
23:05
spending all of
23:06
our time making
23:07
apologetic arguments
23:09
for it, Spurgeon
23:11
says it's because
23:11
it's just not being
23:12
preached.
23:14
I'll pick back
23:14
up.
23:14
Suppose a number
23:15
of persons were
23:16
to take it into
23:17
their heads that
23:18
they had to
23:18
defend a
23:19
lion, a
23:20
full-grown
23:21
king of
23:22
beasts.
23:23
There he is
23:23
in the cage,
23:25
and here come
23:25
all the soldiers
23:26
of the army to
23:27
fight for him.
23:28
Well, I
23:30
should suggest
23:30
to them, if
23:31
they would not
23:32
object and
23:33
feel that it
23:33
was humbling
23:33
to them, that
23:34
they should
23:35
kindly stand
23:36
back and
23:36
open the
23:37
door and
23:38
let the
23:39
lion out.
23:41
I believe
23:42
that would
23:42
be the best
23:43
way of
23:44
defending him,
23:45
for he
23:45
would take
23:46
care of
23:48
himself.
23:48
Let's
23:49
pray together.
