A division occurred in the crowd
Manila Bulletin
|April 5, 2025
Knowing Jesus is one of the important challenges posed by the Gospel of John.
-
Knowledge of Jesus leads to faith, and faith in Jesus leads to life (17:3).
In today's Gospel passage, people are divided as to how they are going to relate to Jesus. They are divided because of the words they heard from Jesus.
What makes it difficult for some and what enables others to receive Jesus' words?
Knowledge accompanied by faith is what enables us to receive Jesus' words and be transformed by it.
The first step is to know Jesus more through the Scriptures and let such knowledge strengthen our faith. It might be the case of having enough information about Jesus but remaining to be people of little faith.
Jesus invites us to enter into a deeper relationship with him—knowing him not only in the level of information but also in the level of a relationship.
