Listen from:
V.20-26 Greeks (Gentiles) want to see Him. Jesus knew that His time to be King had not yet come. Instead He was going to the cross!
V.24 Jesus, first would have to become like a seed which is planted in the ground. It dies, but through death, there springs up fruit. Those who have believed in the Lord Jesus as their Savior, are the fruit for God.
V.26 It is one thing to be saved, but it is another thing to follow the Lord Jesus! Here is where the happiness and peace is in the believer’s life.
V.27-36 The Lord’s soul was troubled, and He asks to be saved from what was ahead of Him. But immediately He adds that it was for that very purpose He had come to earth.
V.37-50 No matter how many miracles He had done, yet they would not believe. Two great things were going to happen in the one event. The world was going to become guilty of the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus, and Satan’s power was going to be broken.
V.38 Isaiah, over 500 years before, had written these very words (Isa. 53:11Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? (Isaiah 53:1)).
V.46 “The Light” mentioned again.
V.48 The Bible is going to judge and condemn the unbelievers when they stand before the Lord at the end of the millennium (“F” on your chart).
