Here in chapter 4:1 John picks up the historical narrative… But he needed to go through Samaria- once the capital of the northern kingdom of Israel, approx. 30 miles north of Jerusalem. The Samaritans were a mixed race and generally looked down upon by the Jews. The history- In 721 BC the Assyrians sacked Samaria and deported the majority of the population leaving just a hand full of Israelites in the region. They then repopulated the area with Gentiles who intermarried with the remaining Israelites. Their descendants became known as the Samaritans. The Samaritans believed in the God of Israel but only accepted the books of Moses as inspired. They built a temple on Mt. Gerizim in 400 BC and in 128 BC the Jews destroyed it. He needed to go through Samaria- Why? Not because it was the most direct route to Galilee, though it was, but for the sake of one thirsty soul. READ TEXT verses 5-26 I. The Woman- a. Social outcast- 1. Samaritan Women- The Rabbis so despised women and so thought them incapable of receiving any real teaching that they said: “Better that the words of the law should be burned than delivered to women”. They had a saying: “Each time a man prolongs conversation with a woman he causes evil to himself, and desist from the law, and in the end inherits Gehenna”. 2. Failure in personal life- 5 failed marriages. 3. Immoral- living with a man. b. Sarcastic and skeptical- “Where do you get this water… are you greater than our father…?” c. Nominally religious- “Our fathers worshipped on this mountain…” d. Empty and weary. II. Jesus- a. The gift of God. b. The living water vs. this water. 1. This water satisfies only temporarily- success, riches, fame, power etc. 2. Living water springs up into eternal life- The life that Jesus gives is no tame and stagnant thing. It is much more than merely the entrance into a new state, that of being saved instead of lost. It is life abundantly. It is life that springs forth giving life to others. c. The obstacle- Sin d. The remedy- 1. Not religion 2. Worship- in spirit and truth III. The Father- (Interesting reference) a. Seeks worshipers- why? 1. Is God lonely? Is God incomplete? Is God insecure? NO! 2. God is love and love by its very nature must share. Man was created to worship. Therefore God seeks out man so that we can experience the very thing we were created for. Close: Christ’s gracious willingness to reveal himself to sinners. Jesus concludes his conversation with this woman by telling her openly and unreservedly that he is the Messiah. Nowhere in all the gospels do we find the Lord making such a full avowal of his nature and office as he does here. And let it be forever remembered, that it was not made to learned Scribes, or moral Pharisees, but to one who up to that day had been an ignorant, thoughtless, immoral person! Such is the grace of God. )67ю КХ‘ ” š В ! 7 F [  Ъ е   ‰ nЦжѕћќ7щы§њі№ьњіњі№іњіњњњьњщ§§хњ56CJ6CJ 56CJ5CJCJ5 )юК‘ ! 7 8 F G [ Ф ѕ  q Д Щ Ъ е ж ъ   [ ‰ no„§ћћћћћљћћћћћћћћћћћљћћћћћћїїї)юК‘ ! 7 8 F G [ Ф ѕ  q Д Щ Ъ е ж ъ   [ ‰ no„…”•ЅХЦя№  EFєцчш§њїєёюышхтпмйњжгаЭЪЧТНИГЎЉЄŸš•‹†|zzupуњџџфњџџ…§џџП§џџР§џџк§џџл§џџўџџўџџ%ўџџ5ўџџ6ўџџEўџџFўџџ[ўџџ\ўџџAџџџoџџџЛџџџМџџџрџџџєџџџѕџџџX§џџm§џџА§џџ ўџџ,ўџџ]ўџџЦџџџкџџџлџџџщџџџъџџџ,„…”•ЅХЦя№  EFєѕцчшщъы§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§ћћшщъыўћў8јџџАа/ Ар=!А"А# $ %А i4@ёџ4NormalCJOJPJQJmH 4`4 Heading 1$@&5CJ<A@ђџЁ<Default Paragraph Font,>`ђ,Title$a$5CJ*B`* Body TextCJы  џџџџ џџ z™ џџ z™‰ы хы „ы шы  Y`ЙРэ ЧЩQ]э ::џџBrian Broderson^Macintosh HD:Users:brianbrodersen:Documents:Microsoft User Data:AutoRecovery save of Document1Brian Broderson`Macintosh HD:Users:brianbrodersen:Documents:SERMONS:Gospel of John:Jesus and the Samaritan W.docџ@)7ќO}66мы  @GTimes New Roman5€Symbol3 Arial3Times qˆ№аh{ЄЦ1|ЄЦ.|ЄЦЙг Y№ЅРДД€>0 )_№џџJesus and the Samaritan WomenBrian Brodersonўџ р…ŸђљOhЋ‘+'Гй0„˜РЬифє  4 @ L Xdlt|'Jesus and the Samaritan WomenesuesuesuNormalnBrian Broderson1iaMicrosoft Word 10.1@ЈЁЌ'@,›Пц`Ц@ЪМ6П`Ц@ўф*ч`ЦЙг ўџ еЭеœ.“—+,љЎ0 hp˜ Ј АИРШ а њ'CalvaryChapelCostaMesaa  Jesus and the Samaritan Women Title ўџџџўџџџ ўџџџ"#$%&'(ўџџџ§џџџ+ўџџџўџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџRoot Entryџџџџџџџџ РF€~ ‹Ќ`Ц-€1TableџџџџџџџџџџџџWordDocumentџџџџџџџџ SummaryInformation(џџџџDocumentSummaryInformation8џџџџџџџџџџџџ!CompObjџџџџXObjectPoolџџџџџџџџџџџџ€~ ‹Ќ`Ц€~ ‹Ќ`Цџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџ РFMicrosoft Word DocumentўџџџNB6WWord.Document.8Root Entryџџџџџџџџ РFP(Х­`Ц8@1TableџџџџџџџџWordDocumentџџџџџџџџ<$SummaryInformation(џџџџ:Дџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџ0§џџџўџџџўџџџ3456792:ўџџџўџџџ=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKL;џџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџDocumentSummaryInformation8џџџџџџџџџџџџ4HCompObjџџџџXObjectPoolџџџџџџџџџџџџ€~ ‹Ќ`Ц€~ ‹Ќ`Ц0TableџџџџџџџџџџџџK ўџџџ  !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123ўџџџ56789ўџџџ;<=>?@ўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџюК‘!78FG[ФѕqДЩЪежъ[‰no„…”•ЅХЦя№ E F N O @ A B C D G Р!ЅР!ЌР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЌР!ЌР!ЌР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЌР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅР!ЅR# „ы шы  Y`ЙРљ ќ G ЧЩQ] !
