Bible, Bourbons & Brews

#70: John 14 & @migrationbrewing straight out of Portland I PA - the REAL Jesus: God AND man. In John 14 we find Jesus trying to reassure his disciples and strengthen their faith and bond before his death that he knew was coming. “do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my fathers house are many rooms, if it were not so, I would not have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you may be where i am.” But even as Jesus was trying to comfort his disciples, they show how little they know him and Philip said “Just show us the father and that will be enough for us.” You can almost hear the pain in Jesus's response, “don't you know me Philip? Even after all this time I have been with you?!?” This brings up the question: if his closest disciples didn't even know him after spending so much time with him and seeing the miracles and seeing his love and compassion for his fellow humans, do WE really know him? Do we really truly know him? Or do we have a distorted religious view of him? A Christine baby born in a manger, or the lord crucified, or do we view him as some diety from another world? So far removed from us so far removed from humankind? This week we're sampling @migrationbrewing straight out of Portland IPA, it's a bright, punchy, tropical IPA with a juicy mouthfeel and comes in at 7.3% a BV, it's definitely not for the faint of heart! So as we head into this next week let’s try to get to know the true HUMAN Jesus, this week let’s try to get rid of the religious fog or the religious veil that separates us from the true God and HUMAN Jesus. Have a great week everyone. God Bless!!
