Dialogue: 0,0:22:07.67,0:22:09.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,clearly making the connection
Dialogue: 0,0:22:09.70,0:22:11.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,between the Word, which is
Dialogue: 0,0:22:11.07,0:22:12.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,representing Jesus in this context,

Dialogue: 0,0:22:15.24,0:22:18.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, back to the point

Dialogue: 0,0:22:29.79,0:22:31.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but what we are seeing here is
Dialogue: 0,0:22:31.22,0:22:32.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that there is a clear depiction

Dialogue: 0,0:22:34.41,0:22:36.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and you also see in different aspects
Dialogue: 0,0:22:36.74,0:22:40.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in John where Jesus would actually go

Dialogue: 0,0:23:14.10,0:23:15.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it's just right there

Dialogue: 0,0:23:21.07,0:23:22.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we understand that to be Jesus,

Dialogue: 0,0:23:24.13,0:23:25.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Derek) And you know, Stephanie,
Dialogue: 0,0:23:25.74,0:23:27.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,anybody could make that claim,

Dialogue: 0,0:23:36.34,0:23:38.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And as we see that, we see
Dialogue: 0,0:23:38.40,0:23:41.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's not just the rash claim
Dialogue: 0,0:23:41.28,0:23:46.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of a madman claiming to be the Son of God,
Dialogue: 0,0:23:46.26,0:23:49.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it is speaking truth and is evidenced

Dialogue: 0,0:23:52.24,0:23:53.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Stephanie) That's right.

Dialogue: 0,0:24:01.24,0:24:05.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and look at how Jesus claimed
Dialogue: 0,0:24:05.46,0:24:06.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that the Hebrew Scriptures
Dialogue: 0,0:24:06.99,0:24:09.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pointed to Him as the Messiah, alright?
Dialogue: 0,0:24:09.82,0:24:11.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, we're going back to John,
Dialogue: 0,0:24:11.21,0:24:13.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,John, chapter 5 and looking
Dialogue: 0,0:24:13.69,0:24:19.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at verses 39 and 40 and then 46.
Dialogue: 0,0:24:19.24,0:24:21.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And, Joshua, would you read that for us?
Dialogue: 0,0:24:21.86,0:24:23.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Joshua) Sure, and I'll be reading
Dialogue: 0,0:24:23.49,0:24:25.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from the New King James Version,
Dialogue: 0,0:24:25.63,0:24:26.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the Bible says:
Dialogue: 0,0:24:42.87,0:24:43.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And verse 46?
Dialogue: 0,0:24:43.98,0:24:45.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Stephanie) That's right.
Dialogue: 0,0:24:51.56,0:24:54.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Stephanie) What was Jesus' claim?
Dialogue: 0,0:24:54.37,0:24:55.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Joshua) That, "The One that you
Dialogue: 0,0:24:55.91,0:24:57.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,have learned about, the One
Dialogue: 0,0:24:57.26,0:25:00.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that you have studied and understood
Dialogue: 0,0:25:00.09,0:25:03.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,from your ancestors and teachers,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:03.43,0:25:06.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all of them were prophesying of Me,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:06.74,0:25:08.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which you now see today."
Dialogue: 0,0:25:08.76,0:25:10.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Stephanie) So He was referring
Dialogue: 0,0:25:10.26,0:25:14.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,back to Moses and the prophets and saying
Dialogue: 0,0:25:14.25,0:25:18.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that they testified of Him. Gladys.
Dialogue: 0,0:25:18.33,0:25:21.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Gladys) The Hebrew children would learn
Dialogue: 0,0:25:21.75,0:25:23.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the first five books
Dialogue: 0,0:25:23.03,0:25:24.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the [Bible, the] Torah,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:24.28,0:25:26.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and Moses was their biggest prophet.
Dialogue: 0,0:25:26.58,0:25:29.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So for Him to claim right there,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:29.48,0:25:31.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"You believe in Moses,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:31.97,0:25:34.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but he was talking about Me."
Dialogue: 0,0:25:34.15,0:25:35.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,He was kind of referring them to,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:35.75,0:25:37.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,just like Joshua was saying,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:37.11,0:25:38.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,kind of saying, "All the things
Dialogue: 0,0:25:38.61,0:25:39.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you have been studying, you
Dialogue: 0,0:25:39.90,0:25:42.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,should have been able to recognize Me."

Dialogue: 0,0:25:45.47,0:25:47.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Rodney) Stephanie, everyone
Dialogue: 0,0:25:47.00,0:25:48.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,knew back then, well, the Jews
Dialogue: 0,0:25:48.92,0:25:50.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,knew, back then, Moses
Dialogue: 0,0:25:50.73,0:25:53.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as the deliverer of the Jews,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:53.29,0:25:55.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,again, back then.
Dialogue: 0,0:25:55.91,0:25:58.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And they also associated the changing

Dialogue: 0,0:26:02.46,0:26:04.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,who was the deliverer,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:04.30,0:26:06.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,clearly Moses asked God
Dialogue: 0,0:26:06.83,0:26:10.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for that power to be able to do so.
Dialogue: 0,0:26:10.30,0:26:12.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I believe that is why, when you
Dialogue: 0,0:26:12.02,0:26:13.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,go on over now to John,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:13.80,0:26:16.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and John talks about the first miracle
Dialogue: 0,0:26:16.14,0:26:19.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of Jesus, it was all about water,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:19.01,0:26:20.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,turning water into something else,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:20.94,0:26:22.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,water into wine in that particular case,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:22.84,0:26:23.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not blood, but wine.
Dialogue: 0,0:26:23.80,0:26:25.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it should have triggered something
Dialogue: 0,0:26:25.99,0:26:27.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in the minds of the Jews to say,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:27.77,0:26:30.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"I've heard that story some time ago,

Dialogue: 0,0:26:44.09,0:26:45.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Stephanie) What does that tell us
Dialogue: 0,0:26:45.77,0:26:48.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about Jesus' conviction
Dialogue: 0,0:26:48.34,0:26:50.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about the Scriptures, the validity
Dialogue: 0,0:26:50.42,0:26:51.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the Scriptures?

Dialogue: 0,0:26:54.84,0:26:56.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Jesus would show up on the scene

Dialogue: 0,0:26:58.65,0:27:01.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But instead, Jesus said, "Well,

Dialogue: 0,0:27:05.07,0:27:07.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And Jesus was using the Scripture

Dialogue: 0,0:37:37.42,0:37:40.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Scott) We skipped over verse 20 where it
Dialogue: 0,0:37:40.32,0:37:42.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,says that no prophecy of Scripture
Dialogue: 0,0:37:42.61,0:37:45.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,comes from someone's own interpretation,
Dialogue: 0,0:37:45.35,0:37:46.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and this is the other side
Dialogue: 0,0:37:46.64,0:37:48.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of what we talked about, how Jesus
Dialogue: 0,0:37:48.30,0:37:49.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,had confidence in the Scripture.
Dialogue: 0,0:37:49.86,0:37:51.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And we talked about how some people say,

Dialogue: 0,0:37:59.19,0:38:00.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the Scripture;

Dialogue: 0,0:38:05.70,0:38:07.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We read it, and when the plain meaning
