John 4:21 NASB20 - Jesus said to her, "Believe Me, woman, that a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
I think there are a few things you have not considered… Let me ask you, did Abraham ever meet Jesus?
Then we have a problem friend….
John 8:56 "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day: and he saw it, and was glad."
Jesus is declaring he met Abraham, notice:
John 8:57 "Then said the Jews unto Him, "Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast Thou seen Abraham?"
Abraham saw into the future. Jesus never saw Abraham. He was not yet born.
John 4:21-24 NASB20 - Jesus said to her, "Believe Me, woman, that a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. "You [Samaritans] worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, because salvation is from the Jews. "But a time is coming, and even now has arrived, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks [to be] His worshipers. "God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."
I read and accept what I read. I don't try to make or build conclusions. What conclusions would you have liked me to draw?
No.
Matthew 1:16, 21, 25 NASB20 - Jacob fathered Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah. ... "She will give birth to a Son; and you shall name Him Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." ... but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he named Him Jesus.
John 8:58 NASB20 - Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am."
John 17:5 NASB95 - "Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.
Jesus was not born of Joseph.
Jesus is the beginning and the end…
