“Whom Are You Seeking?” John 18:1-5

The Mythological Jesus Those who believe Jesus is a myth. This “Jesus” cannot be found. One who approaches the Scriptures with an open and honest heart willing to investigate will find that Jesus is real. Men gave their lives for their belief that Jesus was real. No one willingly dies for a lie. Acts 2:32

The Historical Jesus This person believes Jesus lived, but believes He was only a man. He was not the Son of God. He was not born of a virgin. He did not perform miracles. He did not rise from the dead. If Jesus was only a man, to follow Him is foolish and faith in Him is useless. 1 Cor.:15:16-19

The Non-Controversial Jesus Jesus caused controversy because of who He was and why He came to earth - John 7:11-12 Jesus was challenged - Matt. 21: 23 Jesus was ostracized - John 9:22 His teaching divided people - John 9:16 His teaching was exclusive - John 14:6

The Non-Offensive Jesus The disciples were concerned that Jesus had offended the Pharisees - Matt. 15:10-14 Jesus told it like it was! Scribes and Pharisees - Matt. 23 Rich Young Ruler - Mark 10:21-22 Divorce and Remarriage - Matt. 19:9-10

The Undemanding Jesus Many are looking for the Jesus who requires nothing of us, but is willing to give us everything. We must deny self - Matt. 16:24 We must observe all that Jesus commanded us to do - Matt. 28:20 We cannot call Jesus “Lord” unless we do what He says - Luke 6:46

“Whom are you seeking?” The Mythological Jesus? The Historical Jesus? The Non-Controversial Jesus? The Non-Offensive Jesus? The Undemanding Jesus? We must settle for nothing other than the real Jesus!
