A message from the series “Conversations With Jesus.” Jesus’ healing of the lame man by the pool of Bethesda was significant, not the least of which is because it’s one of the first times in John’s Gospel that He states unequivocally that He is equal with God.
It’s a theme that He would repeat throughout the entire book, and a theme that John would emphasize. It’s worth considering for our own lives as well.

CloseThe book of Hebrews is dense, technical, and in some cases, difficult to understand. But that doesn't mean it isn't important. For an audience that is trying to make the leap from Judaism to Christianity, what they needed more than anything else was conviction. They needed to know -- beyond a shadow of a doubt -- that what they were following was true. The alternative is half-hearted belief, which almost always wilts away in the face of persecution.
