Episode Synopsis

The Bible is more than an ancient book of wisdom or history: it is God’s Word, and all of it points us to Jesus. In John 5:39–47, Jesus confronts the religious leaders who searched the Scriptures diligently but missed the very One the Scriptures were written about. They were looking for life in the text itself, but true life is only found in Christ.



The danger for us is the same: we can read the Bible, know the verses, even admire its teaching, yet still refuse to come to Jesus. Scripture is not meant to be an end in itself but a guide leading us to the Savior. If we stop short of Him, we’ve missed the point entirely.



Jesus also warns against seeking glory from people instead of God. The approval of others can never give us life, but Christ alone can. And just as Moses wrote about Jesus, every page of the Bible whispers His name.



Here’s the takeaway: If we do not see Jesus in the Scriptures, we have not truly understood them. Open the Word, but don’t stop there—come to Christ.



👉 Check out the full message for a deeper look at how John 5 challenges us to find life in Jesus alone.
