This phase "it is written" is used amongst his followers to emphasize his authority. As you perfectly pointed out, it is not needed by the Christ to legitimize his authority. Another excellent lesson my brother keep up the great work.
@ForTheKingdom3 you see my growth! Man thats what up! I am pouring in a lot of time, effort, and dollars into this ministry. Thank you for noticing Bro! Best compliment I could have received.
Powerful teaching Pastor G. Always your revelation of the hidden treasures (right) there in the Bible has and is opening my spiritual mind to the truths of Gods Word. I hope other Pastors/Teachers humble themselves to the gifts God has given to you to teach truths. Be encouraged. Always sharing with others
This is a fascinating analysis. The insight that Jesus often referenced Scripture without "it is written" suggests his inherent authority and connection to divine truth. The examples demonstrate his mastery and embodiment of God's word. This encourages reading the Gospels for deeper wisdom and grace that Jesus fulfilled.
The phrase it is written is an appeal to written authority of some sort. It might be law, history, wisdom, prophecy, etc. You find it in the Bible, for example in Matthew 4:4: Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God
Thank you! I have to give as much detail as I can and leave you with just as much to go search the Scriptures for yourself. What resonated with you most?
When I was a Roman Catholic, my religion teacher that taught there were only 10 commandments and when Jesus stated the two greatest commandments, we were taught that Jesus created those commandments as a way to encompass the 10 commandments. It wouldn't be until I started studying the Bible (and reading Wikipedia) I found out Jews have 713 commandments and those exact two commandments Jesus said were the greatest were not a new invention. He was quoting Leviticus and Deuteronomy.
Blessings and thank you for engaging! It's actually 613 Commandments. I have a couple of videos that deal with this: 1. Are the Ten Commandments Still Relevant Today? - th-cam.com/video/jSBMSLmUPPI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=eskihu2mwGbuQjDp 2. 613 Commandments - th-cam.com/video/Ofn1hcipOL4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=loxwU7ivUliDkA_8
Blessings! I find the Gospel of Nicodemus very enlightening. Especially when it comes to Pilate and his wife Claudia, specifically her dream of Christ’s innocence. Other portions of it shed light on 1 Peter. And this gospel had a great influence and impact on art during the medieval period.
@@gclmedia I finished both Peter's, I must of missed something, I don't mean to be pushy but is there a way I can contact you for questions? I will look into 1 Peter chapter 3 tonight.
This is random but I’ve been reading the Book of Apocrypha. & when I read the Apocryphal Fragments; Fragment 3 says Judas body was swollen to such an extent he could not pass where a chariot could & and he was crushed by a chariot and his bowels gushed out. Is this the random writings from other ppl or do you know?
Thank you for watching and engaging. Great question! What you are referring to is the apocalypse of Judas. It is not a part of the apocryphal books. It is actually classified as a Gnostic or pseudepigraphical text. I dont believe that this book is the random writings of other people but it is viewed as part of the broader body of early Christian literature, reflecting a variety of beliefs and interpretations that existed in the first few centuries after Christ. Although it does contain ideas and interpretations that were considered heretical by early Christian authorities and the mainstream church. However, we can find a similar account in the first chapter of Acts, although without the chariot. “Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.” (Acts 1:18, KJV)
Yes, in the Apocalypse of Judas, it is described that Judas’ body becomes so swollen that he cannot pass through a street, and his eyes are said to have swollen out. Eventually, his body is said to burst open, and the details include that a chariot, driven by a demonic force, runs over him, causing his body to burst open, spilling his intestines.
Teach Master Teacher 🙌🏿
Its the most underrated of those who Christ has set but I gladly and humbly fulfill my assignment.

Thank you man of God! I appreciate you! I have to have enthusiasm, if I don’t believe what I am saying, who will! 🤷🏿♂️

@@gclmedia for sure.
Jesus also used "Have ye not (or never) read......" and "What is written in the law, how readest thou?".
Fascinating!

Indeed! I appreciate you Apostle!
Wow, I never thought of this concept before - thanks for shedding light on it!
Thank you. You would not believe how many times someone comments saying Jesus didn't quote that...He didn't say "It is written" first.

@@gclmedia it’s in the fragments of the apocrypha. Fragments 3. It talks about Judas being so big that he was as wide as a road and a chariot hit him

@@gclmedia wow thank you man of God
You are most welcome!
Anything Jesus said in the Gospels, in the future, going forward, became "it is written" and "thus saith the Lord." Just a random comment.
I appreciate you! Thank you.
