(KJV) John 1:12

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

This verse reveals how having faith (which allows us to receive forgiveness from God and enter a personal relationship with Him) is both an immediate act and an ongoing process.

1. To become a child of God, one must “receive” (Greek elabon, from lambno) Christ. The aorist (past) tense here gives the meaning of a definite act of faith and acceptance at a particular point in time.
2. Following the act of faith, there must be a continual act of believing. The word “believed” (Greek pisteuousin, from pisteuo) is a form of the verb describing ongoing action and suggests the need for perseverance in faith. This means putting faith into practice by continuing to trust and rely on God (John 5:24). In order for a believer to be saved in the end, true faith must continue after the initial act of accepting Christ (Matthew 10:22; 24:12-13; Colossians 1:21-23; Hebrews 3:6; 12:15; 7:25).

1. It is important to recognize that John never uses the noun “belief” (Greek pistis). Yet he uses the verb “believe” (pisteuo) 98 times because saving faith in God is practical and active. “Believing” in the true Biblical sense is not just a mental exercise; it is an active faith that yields the leadership of one’s life to Christ. True faith reveals that continuing trust through selfless action, obedience and service (James 2:14-26). Our own actions do not save us spiritually, but they are a result of true faith and salvation, showing our ongoing gratitude and trust in God (John 5:24). True faith grows and constantly brings a person into a deeper, more dependent relationship with Christ as Lord (Leader and authority in one’s life) and Savior (Hebrews 7:25).

A place in God’s kingdom is not something we can earn. Only as we surrender our lives to God does He give us the right of being His children. Therefore, membership in God’s family is by grace alone (as a result of God’s undeserved favor, mercy, kindness and help; Ephesians 2:8-9). Spiritual salvation is a gift from God – not something we earn by our efforts (John 1:13). Yet Chrit’s message must be “believed”, and the gift must be “received” in order for a person to become an adopted child of God. To “believe in His [Jesus’] name” is to stand firmly on the work and character of Christ – recognizing all that Christ is, all He has done and all He is capable of doing. When a person receives Christ and turns over the control of His or Her life to Jesus Christ in this way, then he or she is “born again” (John 3:7) and becomes a child of God (John 3:1-21). Only those people who make the decision to “believe” and “receive” are “children of God.”

(KJV) John 1:10

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

The “world” is another word that is often used in John’s writings. It is found 78 times in his Gospel and 24 times in his letters (1 John; 2 John; 3 John). The term “world” includes a wide range of meanings, such as the universe, the earth, the people on the earth, most people, those opposed to God, or the worldly human system opposed to God’s purposes. In a general sense, it refers to the whole of society as it is organized and operating independently of God, His Word and His rule. Much of the world will never recognize or accept Christ; it will remain unresponsive and, in most cases, actively opposed to Christ and His message until He returns to finally defeat evil. John gives us the revelation of the world as the great opponent and enemy of the Savior (James 4:4; 1 John 2:15-14; 4:5). The Bible describes friendship with the world as opposition to Go (James 4:4).

(KJV) John 1:9

That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

Christ reveals who God is and shows the way to God. He Himself provides the means of having a personal relationship with God. H makes His message of forgiveness and new life understandable to the human minds of those who hear it by giving them enough grace (undeserved favor, spiritual ability) and insight. Therefore, with understanding they may freely choose to accept or reject His message. Apart from this light of Christ, there is no other light by which we may see the truth and be spiritually saved (John 14:6).

(KJV) John 1:2

The same was in the beginning with God.

Christ was not created; He is eternal and infinite – without beginning or end – and He has always been in loving companionship with the Father and the Holy Spirit (Mark 1:11).

(KJV) John 1:1

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

John begins his Gospel (his account of the “good news” and true story of Jesus Christ) by calling Jessus “the Word” (Greek logos). By using this title, John presents Jesus as the personal Word of God through who God spoke all things into existence (John 1:3; Genesis 1:3; Genesis 1:6, 9; Genesis 1:14-15; Genesis 1:20, 24). The Bible also reveals that God has spoken to us by His Son (Hebrews 1:1-2; Hebrews 1:3); and Jesus Himself declares that His own words are directly from God (John 8:28; 14:24). It is also written in the Bible that Jesus Christ is God’s wisdom for us in every way, helping us to understand and accomplish God’s purposes (1 Corinthians 1:30; Ephesians 3:10-11; Ephesians 3:10; Colossians 2:2-3). Also, the Word describes Jesus as the perfect revelation and representation of the Father’s nature and character (John 1:3-5, 14, 18; John 1:4; John 1:5; Colossians 2:9). That is to say, He is God in human form. Just as a person’s words reveal his or her heart and mind, Christ as “the Word’ reveals the heart and mind of God (John 14:9), John gives us three main characteristics of Jesus Christ as “the Word.”

1. The Word in relation to the Father. (a) Christ was “with God” before the creation of the world (Colossians 1:15). He was a person existing from eternity – without beginning or end – distinct from God the Gather but in and eternal, unified relationship with Him). (b) Christ is divine (“the Word was God”), having the same nature, character and quality of being as the Father (Colossians 2:9; Mark 1:11).
2. The Word in relation to the world. It was through Christ the God created the world (John 1:3). In fact, all things were not only made by Him (by Christ, the Word), but for Him as well (Colossians 1:16; Hebrews 1:2).
3. The Word in relation to humanity. “The Word Became flesh” (John 1:14). In Jesus, God became a human being, taking on our form of existence, but with our sinful nature (since He was conceived by a miracle of the Holy Spirit; Matthew 1:23). This is the basic statement of the incarnation (God coming to us in human form): Christ left heaven and entered the condition of human life through the gateway of human birth (John 1:14; Matthew 1:23).

(KJV) John 4:24

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Because Jesus Christ is the truth (John 1:14; 5:31; 14:6; Luke 4:25; 9:27; 12:44), to live in unity with Christ requires speaking the truth (1 Corinthians 5:8; Ephesians 4:25) and living by the truth. People who claim to have a relationship with Christ (that is, to be spiritually saved), yet do not live and speak the truth as revealed in God’s Word, are deceived (1 John 1:6). In time, they will expose the real condition of their hearts (John 8:44; Acts 5:3). They are opposed to God and will have no place in the kingdom of heaven (Revelation 21:8, 27; 22:15). The Bible teaches that a liar is of “the synagogue of Satan” (Revelation 3:9).

(KJV) John 4:23-24

 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

²⁴ God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Jesus teaches several things here:

1. First of all, the place of worship in not the issue; God’s primary concern is our spiritual attitude.
2. “In spirit” points to the level, or depth, at which true worship occurs. True worship must come from the heart. It should reflect godly character and a deep inner devotion to God. We must approach God and offer ourselves to Him in complete openness and with a spirit that is directed by the Holy Spirit. Above all, our worship must focus on God’s character and attributes and be a heartfelt expression of our own spirit to God’s Spirit.
3. “Truth” (Gree, aletheia) is a primary characteristic of God’s nature (Psalms 31:5; Romans 1:25; 3:7; 15:8) and is personified (given human expression) in Christ (John 14:6; 2 Corinthians 11:10; Ephesians 4:21). It is descriptive of the Holy Spirit (John 14:17; 15:25; 16:130), and it is also at the heart of the gospel message of Christ (John 8:32; Galatians 2:5; Ephesians 1:13). True worship must be a reflection of and response to the truth of the Father that is revealed in the Son and received through the Spirit. Those who encourage worship that is not based upon the truth and teachings of God’s Word have in reality rejected the only real and legitimate foundation for true worship.

You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.

The Samaritan Bible contained only the Pentateuch (the first five books of the Old Testament); their failure to accept much of God’s revelation meant that they knew little about Him. “Salvation is from the Jews” simply refers to the fact that the Messiah, or Christ (John 4:24), would be a Jew.

(KJV) John 4:14

but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

The “water” Jesus offers is spiritual life (Isaiah 12:3). To experience this life, one must “drink” the living water (John 7:37). The word “drink” (Greek pineto, from pino) is in the present imperative tense, representing continuing or repeated action. This act of drinking is not a momentary, single experience, it is an ongoing lifestyle. Drinking the water of life requires regular interaction with the source of the living water, Jesus Christ Himself. No one can continue to drink the water of life if he or she neglects a relationship with Christ and becomes disconnected from the source of the water. Such people will dry up spiritually or become, as Peter describes it, “springs without water” (2 Peter 2:17).

(KJV) John 4:7

When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?”

Jesus’ conversation with the Samaritan woman reveals His commitment to His heavenly Father’s purpose and His own inner desire to bring people of all races, cultures and backgrounds into a personal relationship with God (2 Kings 17:24; Luke 9:53). Jesus’ consuming passion was to save the spiritually lost (Luke 15; Proverbs 11:30; Daniel 13:3; James 5:20), a goal far more important to Him than food and drink (John 4:34). We must follow Jesus’ example (just as the woman did by telling the townspeople, John 4:28-30). All around us people are ready to hear God’s Word. We must not delay or be unwilling to speak to them about their spiritual need and about Jesus, who can meet that need.
