1 Volume 19, Number 35 September 1st, 2013 Be Of Good Cheer by In John 16, Jesus tells His disciples that He is about to depart from this life. He told them ahead of time because He knew it would be hard for them, and He wanted to prevent them from stumbling. The disciples did become sorrowful, and they did not understand fully the implications of their Master s words (at this point). He promised that a Comforter would come (verse 7), and that this One would guide [them] into all the truth (verse 13). Although He knew the disciples would grieve at His departure, Jesus also foretold that their sorrow would turn to joy, verse 20. In fact, His departure ultimately would be a catalyst for the church, a kindling of fire in the world, Luke 12:49. The purpose of the discourse in John 16 was to comfort the disciples in the face of severe hardship after His departure. Jesus knew He would be crucified, would arise from the grave, and would return to heaven; and He knew these events would usher in a time of great stress for His followers. The Master s words were intended to comfort and encourage them because there would be many temptations to desert Him (consider John 21:3). He knew His crucifixion would cause them to scatter (verse 32), and so explained in verse 33 that they were not being deserted; These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. In His death at Calvary, Jesus overcame the power of Satan. Knowing the result of this act in advance, the Savior assessed Israel s response to the preaching of the seventy in these words; And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. In face-to-face confrontations with Satan, Jesus defeated him each time with God s word (Matthew 4:1-11). What could be more fitting than the fact that Satan s ultimate defeat comes through the fulfillment of God s word? God had promised that Satan s power would be crushed by the seed of woman (Genesis 3:15). Jesus was killed in John 19:30, but in John 20:1-18, He was raised from the dead! Paul tells us in Colossians 2:18 that He spoiled the power of Satan and openly triumphed over him! The power of the devil lay in death, but Jesus broke the bars of death in His resurrection! In His resurrection, the Savior conquered sin s deathgrip on all mankind. Hosea 13:14 foretells the payment of a ransom from sin, and Paul quotes it in 1 Corinthians 15:55 as O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory? In verse 56, Paul identifies the sting of sin as death, and James says that death is the fruit of sin (James 1:15). Where once the law produced death by its condemnation of sin, now we have a law which frees us from sin s grip by reconciliation in the blood of the Christ, Romans 5: Finally, our Master overcame the world in that His offering on Golgotha forever bridged the gap between man and God caused by sin. Sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:2), and causes Him to hide His face from us (Isaiah 1:15). But it pleased the Father by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, having made peace through the blood of His cross (Colossians 1:19-20). Being reconciled to God through Christ, we become new creatures in Him (2 Corinthians 5:17-18 & Galatians 2:20). This is why He can truly urge His disciples to Be of good cheer, for He has indeed overcome the world!
