John 7:32 - 7:53

Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg
In this passage, Steve Gregg discusses the people's divided opinions of Jesus during his time, with some believing he was good while others saw him as a deceiver. Gregg also talks about how the prophecy of the Messiah's arrival had created high expectations among the people. He then delves into Jesus' announcement during the last day of the feast, where he speaks about spiritual hunger and thirst, and how those who seek fulfillment in God can be filled through the Holy Spirit. Gregg notes the importance of understanding scripture and encourages his audience to seek a thirst for God, rather than settling for spiritual complacency.
