JESUS IS OUR EXAMPLE
Jesus was found in the temple at age 12 in the midst of the doctors, hearing them, and asking them questions. They were astonished at his understanding and his answers. He told his parents “I must be about my Father’s business” (Read Luke 2:46-49). Jesus grew up and did mighty works because he pleased God. If we “grow up” in Christ and please God, we can do mighty works in Jesus’ name. Read Deuteronomy 32:4 and John 5:17.
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. John 8:29.
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. Acts 10:38.
For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. Galatians 1:10.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6.
If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
John 15:10.
Jesus wanted the people to believe him because his works were witness that God was in him. Your works are also a witness whether God is in you or not (Matthew 7:20). 1 Timothy 5:25 says “. . . they that are otherwise cannot be hid.” Read John 14:10 and John 15:24.
But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. John 10:38.
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 1 John 3:8.
