The Disciple and the Bible

Overview

When Jesus tells the disciples that one of them is going to betray him to death, we learn something that’s usually overlooked.

Notice that before Jesus even deals with Judas or talks to Judas, he talks to the disciples and he says, “but this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture.” He’s actually saying they’re about to go into a dark time. They’re going to be confused and in despair. But if they knew the scripture the way he knows the scripture, they would know there’s a way through.

Jesus was able to get through things because 1) the scripture was his comprehensive authority, 2) he read it as a life changing story, and 3) it turned into his lifeline in adversity.
