Who Are You? By Pastor Ty
Jesus’ identity is the central question of the gospel — and the central question of every human life. In John 8:21-30, He reveals who He is by contrasting where He comes from and where we are living.
Jesus Is the One Who Comes from Above. Jesus confirms this truth in John 8:23 — “You are from below; I am from above.” His origin is not earthly but divine Jesus is not merely a teacher, prophet, or miracle worker. He comes from the presence of the Father — from eternity into time. His authority flows from His identity, not from human approval.
Our problem is not ignorance but separation “You are from below” exposes humanity’s spiritual condition. Sin doesn’t just make us bad — it makes us lost, unable to reach God on our own. We need Someone from above to rescue those below. You cannot understand Jesus until you understand where He comes from If He is from above, then His words carry heavenly weight. If He is from above, then His mission is not optional — it is essential.
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me”. – John 14:6
