Then they said to Him, “Who are You?”
And Jesus said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning. (John 8:25)
I see from this morning's Bible verse that Jesus was not a stranger to those who asked the question and that the question had already been answered. Why then did that group of people so often called 'they' continue asking? They seem to be always with us and the answer is always the same. They are those who refuse to believe in the Christ no matter what He said to them or how many of the sick He healed or how many blind eyes He opened. They did not want to believe and so they hoped perhaps for another answer when they asked once more, "Who are you?"
Jesus, of course, reminded them that He had given that answer already. The Son of God does not change any more than His Father in Heaven. We have a constant and steadfast Savior. Perfection does not need to change. The Almighty would be something less if He changed from His all mightiness. Yet, the world continues to hope for a different answer. One more to their liking, maybe even one just like them.
We know that He is Lord!
