Bible Question: If you have not read the Gospel of Judas that has a relation with my question.. Then my clarification would be limited to the accepted books of the Holy Bible.. The question is : If Jesus was not referring to other person why in John 8:50, John 8:15 he is not a judge? and in John 5:22 The Son was the judge? and in Isaiah 42:1 A Servant was the Judge? Can a Son of God become a Servant? |
Bible Answer: Hello Alegrio, The Gospel of Judas isn't really germane as it's not canonical! Essentially, the Gospel of Mark portrays Jesus as Servant! (cf Jer 42:1) Can a Son of God become a Servant? Yes, the Son of God was! In Matt. 20:28 we read, "just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." (NASB) Matthew presents Jesus as Israel's promised messianic King (1:23); Mark presents Christ as servant ; Luke presents the humanity and compassion of Christ; John presents the strongest case in scripture for the Diety of the incarnate Son of God (6:69). John 5:22 declares, "For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son," Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
