The Father is in Me and I Am in the Father

Manila Bulletin

|

April 11, 2025

In John's Gospel, the word (ho logos) and the works (erga) of Jesus are profoundly inseparable. We have already reflected on the challenge of keeping the word of Jesus so that we will remain in him and in God the Father.

We recall that Jesus is the eternal Logos of the Father through whom the Father is made known (1:1-2, 17-18). Jesus is the Revealer of God the Father. The Father can only be revealed by someone who is intimately connected to him—by Jesus who is always in the Father's bosom (1:18).

In today's Gospel passage, some people want to stone Jesus not for the works he does but for emphasizing his relationship with his Father. Those people recognize that Jesus' works are good, but they could not accept that Jesus is God's Son.
