3. AUGUST MEMORY
VERSE:
Romans 10:9-10 HCSB
“If you confess with your
mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”
and believe in your heart
that God raised Him from
4. the dead, you will be
saved. One believes with
the heart, resulting in
righteousness and one
confesses with the mouth,
resulting in salvation.”
Romans 10:9-10 HCSB
10. John 1:14 KJV
14 And the Word was made
flesh, and dwelt among us,
and we beheld his glory, the
glory as of the only
begotten of the Father, full
of grace and truth.
32. Isaiah 53:2b KJV
2b He hath no form nor
comeliness; and when we
shall see Him, there is no
beauty that we should
desire Him.
33. However, after you enter
into the tabernacle you
see gold and beauty – the
inside of Christ is
beautiful!
34. Even the materials of the
tabernacle speak of
Christ.
The wood speaks of His
humanity and the gold,
His divinity.
35. White is purity, blue is
promise/prophecy, purple
is royalty, and red is
blood.
There is no black in the
tabernacle because black
denotes sin and judgment.
36. There is much more that
can be said and explored.
Consider studying
1 Corinthians 10:1-11, and
Hebrews 8-10 to see how
the Holy Spirit develops
typology and prophecy.
37. Christ the Word became
flesh, and dwelt among us, is
not only proclaimed in the
NT, but also foreshadowed
in the OT, not only in direct
prophecies, but also in many
types and figures.
39. Through Christ Who
tabernacled among us we
have access to God,
fellowship with God,
sustenance in eternal life,
and servanthood in the
Royal Priesthood.
55. 36 Watch ye therefore, and
pray always, that ye may
be accounted worthy to
escape all these things that
shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of
man. Luke 21:36 KJV
56. Psalm 90:10 KJV
10 The days of our years
are threescore years and
ten; and if by reason of
strength they be fourscore
years, yet is their strength
labour and sorrow;
57. for it is soon cut off, and
we fly away.
Psalm 90:10 KJV
58. Israel became a nation
again in 1948.(2nd coming)

60. John 1:18 NASB
18 No one has seen God at
any time; the only
begotten God Who is in
the bosom of the Father,
He has explained Him.
61. God, Who cannot be
known unless He reveals
Himself, became most
fully known because Jesus
explained Him.
Jesus is the explanation of
God.
62. He is the answer to the
question,
“What is God like?”
In John 14:7-9, Jesus
declared that truth to His
disciples:
63. “If you had known Me,
you would have known
My Father also; from now
on you know Him, and
have seen Him.” Philip
said to Him, “Lord, show
us the Father, and it is
64. enough for us.” Jesus said to
him, “Have I been so long
with you, and yet you have
not come to know Me,
Philip? He who has seen Me
has seen the Father; how can
you say, ‘Show us the
Father’?” John 14:7-9
65. Explained translates a
form of the verb
exegeomai, from which
the English word
“exegesis” (the method or
practice of interpreting
Scripture) derives.
66. Jesus is the only One
qualified to exegete or
interpret God to man,
since “no one knows the
Son except the Father; nor
does anyone know the
Father except the Son, and
67. anyone to whom the Son
wills to reveal Him”
(Matthew 11:27).
68. The prologue presents an
introductory synopsis of
John's entire gospel.
It introduces themes that
will be expanded
throughout the rest of the
book.
69. None are more important
than this: Jesus, Who
existed in intimate
fellowship with the Father
from all eternity (v. 1),
became flesh (v. 14),
brought the full
70. expression of grace and
truth to mankind (v. 17),
and revealed (exegeted)
God to man (v. 18).
How He did so will be
seen in the remainder of
John's gospel.
71. John clearly defined the
purpose in writing his gospel
in John 20:31—that his
readers “may believe that
Jesus is the Christ, the Son of
God; and that believing they
may have life in His name.”
72. John 1:19-36 KJV
19 And this is the record
of John, when the Jews
sent priests and Levites
from Jerusalem to ask
him, Who art thou?
73. 20 And he confessed, and
denied not; but confessed,
I am not the Christ.
21 And they asked him,
What then?
Art thou Elias?
And he saith, I am not.
74. Art thou that prophet?
And he answered, No.
22 Then said they unto
him, Who art thou? that
we may give an answer to
them that sent us. What
sayest thou of thyself?
75. 23 He said, I am the voice
of one crying in the
wilderness, Make straight
the way of the Lord, as
said the prophet Esaias.
24 And they which were
sent were of the Pharisees.
76. 25 And they asked him,
and said unto him, Why
baptizest thou then, if
thou be not that Christ,
nor Elias, neither that
prophet?
80. 29 The next day John
seeth Jesus coming unto
him, and saith, Behold the
Lamb of God, which
taketh away the sin of the
world.
81. 30 This is he of whom I
said, After me cometh a
man which is preferred
before me: for he was
before me.
82. 31 And I knew him not:
but that he should be
made manifest to Israel,
therefore am I come
baptizing with water.
83. 32 And John bare record,
saying, I saw the Spirit
descending from heaven
like a dove, and it abode
upon him.
84. 33 And I knew him not:
but he that sent me to
baptize with water, the
same said unto me, Upon
whom thou shalt see the
Spirit descending, and
remaining on him, the
85. same is he which
baptizeth with the Holy
Ghost.
34 And I saw, and bare
record that this is the Son
of God.
86. 35 Again the next day after
John stood, and two of his
disciples;
36 And looking upon Jesus
as he walked, he saith,
Behold the Lamb of God!
John 1:19-36 KJV
87. Luke 16:16 KJV
16 The law and the
prophets were until John:
since that time the
kingdom of God is
preached, and every man
presseth into it.
88. John the Baptist was the
last of the prophets and
he was the first herald.
Malachi 3:1
Isaiah 40:3
Matthew 3
89. Malachi 3:1 KJV
1 Behold, I will send my
messenger, and he shall
prepare the way before
me:
90. Isaiah 40:3 KJV
3 The voice of him that
crieth in the wilderness,
Prepare ye the way of
the Lord, make straight in
the desert a highway for
our God.
91. *God anticipated hostile
jamming when He
communicated the Bible.
*If a book of the Bible
were to be removed, you
would not lose the
message concerning Jesus.
92. John the Baptist was born
in March
(between 6 BC and 2 BC)
during the
Feast of the Passover.
93. Jesus was born after
6 pm (6:15 pm – 7:45 pm)
Jerusalem time in
September
(between 6 BC and 2 BC)
during the
Feast of the Trumpets.
