SEBTS Chapel - Robison B. James April 3, 1962
- Description
- The service begins with an introduction for the speaker, Robison B. James, who was Instructor in Theology from 1961 to 1962 (00:00-01:03). He begins by reading the sermon text, John 13:21-30 (01:04-02:32), followed by opening prayer (02:33-03:12). He begins by pointing out the uniqueness of John’s fourth gospel as the most symbolic gospel (03:13-05:17). The gospel writer is both subtle (in the sense of sophistication) and serious, a rare combination (05:18-08:05). The relationships between John’s symbols in his gospel are subtle, showing his mastery of communicating the gospel among the popular literary devices of his time (08:06-11:23). There are three relations of closeness in John’s seriousness: the use of concrete images instead of abstract concepts (11:24-14:03), the experiential and presented life in Christ (14:04-17:28), and the development of the disciples (17:29-21:41). He closes in prayer (21:42-21:57).
