V. 11 - Love
11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw water with, and the well is deep. Where do you get that living water?
The social barriers Jesus crosses
Labels and Titles don’t matter to Jesus
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
150 years ago - a white man having dinner with black woman
Jesus sees value in what the woman has.
This is how we should be
HE loves by offering living water
14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
Spring of living water
love springing up from inside forever
Jesus fulfills all of our needs
V. 16-26 Jesus speaks Truth - about morality but more importantly who He is
3 types of Truth
1 - Jesus knows whats really going on
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
“Is there a Mr. Smith in your life?”
But he does it straight forward and with sensitivity - he doesn’t rubber her noise in it.
2 - Jesus knows who God is and how to access him
20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”
Not place - Person
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
True Worshipers - Spirit and Truth
Not Geographical but relationship
3 - Jesus is the way to God
26 Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.”
Forster relationships
When we love like Jesus
And speak truth like Jesus
We have to create ways to show people they are loved.
Sinners know sinners.
