Jesus was Totally Unperturbed
Text: John 13: 3
JESUS WAS TOTALLY UNPERTURBED
Was Jesus in any way disturbed that Judas, one of His disciples would betray Him that night? Jesus, amazingly was not perturbed in any way. How was He able to remain calm and composed?
“Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God.”
John 13:3
1. “Jesus, knowing”
a. The reason why Jesus remained so calm was because of His deep knowledge.
b. With this deep knowledge came calm assurance.
c. This knowledge was not just information He had in His mind.
d. It was truth that had embedded itself in His heart as well.
2. “That the Father had given all things into His hands”
a. His Father was with Him.
b. His Father had entrusted all things into His hands.
c. There was therefore no reason to be overly upset by any turn of events.
d. He had not lost control of the situation at hand.
3. “And that He had come from God”
a. Jesus never forgot where He came from.
b. He had come from Heaven and from God His Father.
c. He had come with a clear purpose in mind.
d. He had come to bring salvation to the world.
e. He would be faithful and true to His mission.
f. He would trust His Father in every set of circumstances.
4. “And was going to God”
a. What was death but returning to Heaven and to God?
b. Why should there be sorrow at the thought of going to God?
c. There need not be undue fear and sorrow at the thought of death.
d. His heart and mind were fixed concerning the certainty of going to God.
e. In these thoughts, Jesus was able to remain calm and composed.
This is the kind of peace that God the Father can give to all who trust in Him fully.
经文：约翰福音 13：3
耶稣完全没受干扰
耶稣是否因祂其中一个门徒，犹大，会在当晚背叛祂而感到不安？奇妙的是耶稣并没有感到心绪不宁。祂是怎么能保持冷静和自若的呢？
“耶稣知道父已将万有交在他手里，且知道自己是从神出来的，又要归到神那里去。”
