00:00in Judea near a place called Salem John the Baptist was talking with a group of
00:12his followers but some of John's disciples were beginning to wonder they
00:19knew that Jesus was also teaching not far from there and that his growing
00:23popularity was attracting large crowds but teacher he who was with you beyond
00:31the Jordan to whom you've borne witness he too is baptizing and all men are going
00:36to him no man can receive anything except what is given him from heaven you
00:43yourselves bear me witness that I said I am NOT the Christ but I have been sent
00:50before him he who has the bride is the bridegroom the friend of the bridegroom
00:56who stands and hears him rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice therefore this
01:04joy of mine is now full he must increase but I must decrease he who comes from
01:13above is above all and so it was again that John bore witness to Christ but
01:22John's followers did not understand what their teacher meant they knew only one
01:27thing Jesus was gathering more followers than John the Baptist everywhere Jesus
01:34went people came to hear him and as his following grew so the knowledge of his
01:40teaching and his influence grew but the religious rulers of Israel were greatly
01:45disturbed by this growing popularity of Jesus and these priests and Pharisees
01:50deeply jealous of their power and authority decided that they must keep a
01:55careful watch on Jesus for fear his growing popularity might weaken their
01:59control of the people and when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that he was
02:04making and baptizing more disciples than John the Baptist although Jesus
02:09himself did not baptize but his disciples did he then left Judea and departed into
02:14Galilee the direct route to Galilee would take the traveler through Samaria but
02:20because the Samaritan people were held in contempt by the Jews due to differences of
02:24religious belief and practice the Jews took the route eastward across the river
02:29Jordan up through Perea and thence to Galilee but Jesus had no such feelings about the
02:37Samaritans he loved them along with all other people he wanted to bring them
02:43salvation therefore he took the road straight ahead
02:49and so they drew near a city of Samaria called Sychar the day was hot and the road dusty as they came to a well on the edge of town they stopped to rest it was the old well of Jacob near the parcel of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph the people of Sychar still came there to draw water
03:17that day as Jesus rested the disciples decided to go into town to buy food taking leave of the master they started on their way they knew they would not be gone long for it was only a short distance to the town they had just left when a woman of Samaria came to the well
03:40came to the well

04:36the
04:37gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, give me a drink, you would have asked him, and he
04:42would have given you living water. But sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep.
04:53Where do you get this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well,
05:00and drank from it himself, and his children, and his cattle? Everyone who drinks of this water will
05:05thirst again. But whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst, for the water
05:11that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water, welling up to eternal life. The woman
05:18could sense that this living water of which Jesus spoke must be something very precious. Sir, give me
05:26this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw. But Jesus knew that before she would be able
05:34to drink this living water, which is God's grace and salvation, given only to repentant sinners.
05:40He must lead her to see her sinfulness.
05:47Go, call your husband, and come here.
05:53I have no husband.
05:55You are right in saying, I have no husband.
05:58For you have had five husbands, and he whom you now have is not your husband.
06:05This you have said truly.
06:08Sir,
06:09I see you are a prophet.
06:14But our fathers worshipped on this mountain,
06:17and you say in Jerusalem is the place where men are to worship.
06:21Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor at Jerusalem
06:25will you worship the Father.
06:27You worship what you do not know.
06:30We know what we worship, for salvation is from the Jews.
06:36But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father
06:43in spirit and in truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.
06:47God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
06:58I know that the Messiah is coming.
07:01He who is called Christ, when he comes, he will tell us all things.
07:07I who speak to you, am he.
07:11The claim of Jesus and his knowledge of her personal life
07:16could only mean one thing to the woman.
07:20This must be the long-promised Messiah.
07:24For a few moments, she was awed by her discovery.
07:27Now the penitent woman also knew that wherever the sinner may be,
07:33he needs only to turn to God for divine forgiveness.
07:39The disciples were now returning with the food they had bought in the village.
07:50As they drew near the well, they saw the woman,
07:53and they all wondered why Jesus would talk with the Samaritan.
07:56Master, we have brought food.
07:59The woman hardly seemed aware of the disciples.
08:02She was too overwhelmed by the knowledge that she had been speaking with the Savior.
08:07Then she knew that she must carry the good news to her people.
08:10She must hurry and hope, hope that they would believe her.
08:13Back in the city, the woman's exciting news quickly aroused the people,
08:29and they crowded about her to hear of this man of whom she had talked at Jacob's well.
08:33He had said that he was the Messiah.
08:36Come, they must go with her and see for themselves.
08:39And so she led the crowd back to the well,
08:44that they also might see this Messiah of whom she spoke.
08:47But Master, you must eat.
09:02I have food to eat of which you do not know.
09:04Has anyone brought him food?
09:07My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work.
09:10Do you not say, there are yet four months, and then comes the harvest?
09:17But I tell you, lift up your eyes,
09:21and see how the fields are already white for harvest.
09:25He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life,
09:32so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
09:36For here the saying holds true,
09:38one sows and another reaps.
09:41I sent you to reap that upon which you did not labor.
09:44Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.
09:47Here is the one that told me all I ever did.
09:59Is not this the Christ?
10:01We must hear him speak.
10:03And so Jesus spoke to the Samaritans.
10:07He saw nothing to avoid in these people.
10:10They were eager to know of him, eager to listen to his words.
10:14And they begged him to come into the city and stay with them a while.
10:18Jesus consented and stayed with them through that day and the next,
10:22filling their hearts and minds with his teachings.
10:26Wherever he went, and whenever he spoke,
10:29his listeners were spellbound.
10:32And many came to believe him,
10:34not because of what the woman had said,
10:36but because they themselves had heard him.
10:41After two days,
10:43Jesus and his disciples were ready to resume their journey.
10:46Some of the Samaritans accompanied them to the edge of town.
10:50And though they were sorry to see him go,
10:53they knew that the promised Savior had come at last
10:55and had revealed himself to them.
10:58And so as Jesus and his disciples turned their steps once more toward Galilee,
11:04he left behind many new followers who would always remember his words.
11:09But whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst.
11:15For the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water,
11:18welling up to eternal life.
11:20So he just Kean andウル,
11:22welling up for great nature,
11:25but we're not going to be able to really that if they were happy,
11:27so he asks what does he need?
11:28Unless they're not going to be willing to have ice off,
11:30he'll be taking on time.
11:30And so he just loved him.
11:31Until then,
11:33he just came,
11:33I have not been to the reveal
11:35of Sidney,
11:36but he was able to face things
11:37that have been his way.
11:38And as he was telling us,
11:39he agreed to the winner
11:40to America
11:41for the Peace of the fields.
11:42That would not be true of anything
11:43but gross,
11:45he was not aware of him.
11:46to know him how but honor thené
11:47and closer to his book of the entire division.
