Where we are headed in John 12 today Evidences Christ gives us Our pitiful response to Him

I. Christ provides all the evidence we need to believe (12:1-36).

656 John 12 Events 64 Mary: Anointing at Bethany 12:1-11

Was Mary Magdalene the Woman with the Alabaster Jar? No. In Luke she is not named but in the other gospels she is clearly Mary of Bethany

Luke 7:36-50 Jesus and the Sinful Woman

Common to all four gospel accounts: Similar Anointings of Jesus 1. Unannounced visit by woman 2. Anointed Jesus' feet 3. Wiped his feet with her hair 4. Complaint of waste by disciples/Judas 5. Disciples/Judas rebuked by Jesus 6. At the home of a man named Simon 7. Alabaster jar (except John)

Luke 7:36-50 Early in Ministry; Weeping For worship, her sins forgiven (Luke 7:48) By unnamed harlot at home of Simon the Pharisee (Luke 7:40) John 12:1-11; Matt. 26:6- 13; Mark 14:3-9 Begins Passion Week; No weeping noted For burial, as she needed no forgiveness By righteous Mary at home of Simon the Leper (Matt. 26:6; Mark 14:3) Two Different Anointings of Jesus

Mary is noted five times in the NT… "This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair" (John 11:2) "When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet… " (John 11:32) "Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume, and poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair…" (John 12:3) "Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, put their faith in him… " (John 11:45) "[Martha] had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet, listening to what he said" (Luke 10:39)

Soft versus Hard Hearts Mary (Soft) Judas (Hard) Gave Took Public Secret Sacrificial Self-serving Cost her much Cost him nothing Humbled herself Exalted himself Role of Slave Treasurer Fragrant house Spoilt with criticism "Mary" names No "Judas" today

Hosanna title Hosanna! Carl Tuttle Hebrew: "Save now!" Psalm 118:25-26

Hosanna 1/12 Hosanna, Hosanna Hosanna in the highest (repeat)

Hosanna 1/12 Lord, we lift up Your Name With hearts full of praise Be exalted, O Lord my God Hosanna in the highest

Hosanna 1/12 Glory, glory Glory to the King of Kings (repeat)

Why the Triumphal Entry? Soft Hearts Hard Hearts

656 John 12 Events Mary: Anointing at Bethany 12:1-11 Pilgrims: Triumphal Entry 12:12-20 Greeks: Predicts Death 12:21-36

Soft versus Hard Hearts

What evidence for Christ as God do you lack now?

My Taxi Ride

C. S. Lewis "I came into the kingdom of God kicking and screaming."

I. Christ provides all the evidence we need to believe (1-36).

II. We disbelieve due to our hard hearts (12:37-50).

What does a hard heart look like today?

My Taxi Ride

Something else is more important than genuinely considering Christ

That "Something" for Israel's Leaders

Expelled

Something else is more important than genuinely considering Christ

Don't harden your heart against Jesus (Main Idea).

Why do most people reject Christ?

I. Christ provides all the evidence we need to believe (12:1-36).

II. We disbelieve due to our hard hearts (12:37-50).
