8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.

  2. THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE

1. THE MIRACLES JESUS PERFORMED

  1. A miracle is an event that involves the direct and powerful action of God, transcending the ordinary laws of nature and defying common expectations of behaviour.
  2. It is also an extraordinary occurrence that can only be attributed to the supernatural work of God that demonstrates His involvement in human history (Exodus 14:21-22; Joshua 10:12-14).
  3. Many miracles were performed by Jesus as proof that He is God. For instance:

i. He turned water to wine (John 2:7-9), walked on water (Matthew 14:25),

ii. Multiplied a meal (John 6:11-13),

iii. Healed the blind, the lame (John 9:7; Mark 2:3, 11), and the sick (Matthew 9:35; Mark 1:40-42),

iv. He even raised people from the dead (John 11:43-44; Luke 7:13-15).

  1. Christ Himself rose from the dead (Matthew 28:5-7; Acts 10:41).
  2. No other religion can claim the resurrection of its founders.

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:.Share an outstanding miracle you have experienced in your Christian journey with the class.

2. THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE

i. A way is a route leading somewhere.

ii. There is no other path to Heaven except Jesus (John 14:1-3; Acts 4:12).

B. Jesus, as the incarnate Word of God (John 1:1) is the source of all truth (John 8:32).

i. According to Psalm 119:142, truth represents the law of God.

ii. Jesus came as the law personified.

iii. When He taught His followers, during the sermon on the mount, He reminded them of the basic points of the law and gave new commands (Matthew 5:21-22, 27-28, 31-32, 33-34, 38-39, 43-44), thereby equating Himself with God as the authoritative standard of righteousness.

iv. Jesus said He came to fulfil the demands of the law and the prophets (Matthew 5:17).

C. Jesus spoke of His authority over life being the source of life (John 10:10b; 14:19).

I. He laid down His life for His ‘sheep,’ and then took it back again (John 10:17-18).

II. He brought true deliverance from a life of bondage to sin and death to a life of victory over sin and freedom in eternity (John 3:15-16; 10:28).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Do you believe that Jesus is the only access into the kingdom of heaven or not? Discuss your conviction with the class. (Teachers are to scripturally guide that Jesus is the only access to eternal existence).

CONCLUSION: There is no controversy, Jesus Christ is God. Anyone who disagrees does it at his/her peril.

QUESTIONS:

  1. Mention five miracles Jesus performed.
  2. How is Jesus the way, the truth, and the life?

EVALUATION: Students should mention two things that show the deity of Christ.
