40On hearing his words, some of the people said, "Surely this man is the Prophet."
41Others said, "He is the Christ."
Still others asked, "How can the Christ come from Galilee? 42Does not the Scripture say that the Christ will come from David's family and from Bethlehem, the town where David lived?" 43Thus the people were divided because of Jesus. 44Some wanted to seize him, but no one laid a hand on him.John 7:40-44 (NIV)
The people were arguing who Jesus was. They didn't know everything about Jesus and how He fulfilled the prophecies that they were questioning. People are still arguing over Jesus today. "He was a good man." "He was a good teacher." "He was a prophet." How can I, having been elightened by the Holy Spirit, reveal to those around me who He really is?
