Question 1:  “What is One Passage that Every Christian must Think Clearly about?”

Answer:  “Today’s Reading includes John 3:31-36.  It begins begin with something every Christian knows:  ‘ The one who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of earthly things.  The One Who comes from above is above all.’   Every Christian knows that!”

Answer:  “St. John wanted us to know how people of the world react to Every Teaching of Jesus Christ:   ‘He testifies to what He has seen and heard, but no one (among worldly people) accepts His testimony.’

Question 3:  “What does St. John teach us next?”
Answer:  “He tells us what those who seek obedience to Every Word of Jesus do on God’s behalf.   ‘Whoever does accept His testimony certifies that God is trustworthy.’

Question 4:  “Does God provide all the information we need to understand that Jesus is ‘trustworthy’?”

Answer:  ”‘The Father loves the Son and has given everything over to Him.’
