God Wants to Surprise You

The Temple was important because it was the symbolic dwelling place of God. It was where God and humanity met. These surprising words of Jesus show us that he himself is the new Temple. It is through Jesus that God and humanity are brought together. Jesus wasn’t just another great teacher, as many people then and now have thought – he is much more important than that. He is the way to God.

Father, thank you that you promise that, one day, you will raise us, like Jesus, to full and eternal life.

  • Surprisingly realistic
    When people saw the miracles Jesus performed and what he was doing, many ‘believed in his name’ (v.23). ‘But’, John tells us, ‘Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. He did not need human testimony about them, for he knew what was in people’ (vv.24–25).
