Message Notes
One Way: One Man // One Way YHWH // 04.06.25
We begin our series with the prophecy of a priest who has no idea of the magnitude of his words. In anger and jealousy, he declares that “one man must die for the nation.” He says it in hopes of eliminating Jesus by death. What he doesn’t realize is that he is stating a massive truth; One Man must die for the salvation of not just the nation but of the world, and that man is Jesus. Join us as we investigate this fascinating reality. See you there.

Discussion Questions – 04.06.25
Our text Sunday was John 11:45-52. I would like you to read up to verse 57. Read it slowly multiple times over asking the Holy Spirit to reveal things in the text you might never have caught before. Write down what you glean to share with your group. Please take as much time in your group as you like on this.
1. In John 11:45 “many saw and believed.” (Read John 11:39-44 to see what they saw) But in John 11:46-48, some of the people who saw the Lazarus miracle came and reported it to the Priests and Pharisees, but their response was, we’ve got to eliminate Jesus. Why does one group believe and the other wants to kill off Jesus? Explain
2. In John 11:49-51, Caiaphas, the High Priest prophecies correctly; one Man must die for the nation. And he has no idea of the depth of his statement. Go back and read the three sections I read on Sunday, Genesis 3:14-15 Romans 5:12-16I Corinthians 15:45-47. Now write out and share with your group the “why One Man has to die.”
3. Quick question: In Romans 5:12, why doesn’t Paul mention Eve and her role in the partaking of the forbidden fruit? Have fun
4. Curious question worth answering. Read John 11:53-57, focusing on verses 53 and 57. They are priests who should be consumed with the Temple's function to help the people, but their minds are consumed with hate and murder. What does this teach us about what bitterness, hate, jealousy, and unforgiveness do to us?”’ Explain
5. Double bonus Jeopardy question. Jesus in verse 54 no longer walks publicly but instead retreats into a city called Ephraim. Ephraim was one of Joseph’s sons. Read Genesis 41:52. We find Ephraim means “Fruitful.” “I THINK” in this, we find the difference between “religion/the Priest......and relationship with Jesus/fruitfulness.” So my question is, what is the difference between religion AND relationship with God through Jesus? Explain(To help with this, compare what they want to do to Jesus and what Jesus did for Lazarus)
