“Let me in”
Hospitality
Hospitality is a theme of John 11 & 12.
Their relationship was formed earlier on as described in Luke’s Gospel:
“As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said.” (Luke 10:38–39 NIV11)
“Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.” (John 11:5 NIV11)
Jesus felt comfortable in their home. It was somewhere he felt loved.
Therefore others saw the love at a time of crisis.
“When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.” (John 11:31 NIV11)
Opening their home seemed to be a focus for them, something they were good at.
“When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. Jesus wept. Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.” (John 11:33, 35, 38 NIV11)
Why was he so moved so moved? Because he really knew them.
-
How are we doing at being deeply loving?
-
How can God be glorified through our hospitality?
People believe as a result of the hospitality
“Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him.” (John 11:45 NIV11)
-
What would people see if they came to visit me?
-
How would they see God moving in my life?
-
What would my relationships tell people about God?
God’s will is done as a result
“Now the crowd that was with him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to spread the word.” (John 12:17 NIV11)
Others spread the word when they see God in action.
- What might God be doing in your life right now to bring himself glory?
- What is my personal vision for God this year?
- Do I have a partnership vision for God this year?
- When was the last time you practiced hospitality?
- What might happen if we open our homes?
Don’t need a lot of resources, but a welcoming heart.

“If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me, l and let him drink who believes in me. As the scripture said, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.’” John 7:37-38
Isaiah 12:3; Numbers 20:11; Ezekiel 47:1; Zechariah 14:8; Joel 3:18

Bible study suggestion.
“What do these passages tell you about the meaning in your own life of the metaphor of light?
Isaiah 42:6; 49:6; 51:4 ___________________________________________
Matthew 5:14-16 _______________________________________________
Colossians 1:13 ________________________________________________
John 4:4 ______________________________________________________
1 John 2:9-11 __________________________________________________
Ephesians 5:8-10 _______________________________________________
3. Expulsion: 9.22
Why aposunagogos? John 9:22; 34-35; 12:42; 16:2
Read the Gospels thinking about what it tells you about the early church and what they were going through.
When doing Bible study, ask yourself this question: “What might have been the value to the early church of this teaching, story or example?”
4. Voice: 10.3-5, 8, 14, 16
“Obviously God must guide us in a way that will develop spontaneity in us. The development of character, rather than direction in this, that, and the other matter, must be the primary purpose of the Father. He will guide us, but he won’t override us. That fact should make us use with caution the method of sitting down with a pencil and a blank sheet of paper to write down the instructions dictated by God for the day. Suppose a parent would dictate to the child minutely everything he is to do during the day. The child would be stunted under that regime. The parent must guide in such a manner, and to the degree, that autonomous character, capable of making right decisions for itself, is produced. God does the same.” E. Stanley Jones
Three aids to hearing the voice of God:
Scripture: “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” Psalm 119:105
Friends: 1 Samuel 3:1-21
Time: Psalm 40:1; Romans 8:25; Hebrews 6:15
Book recommendation: “Hearing God: developing a conversational relationship with God”, Dallas Willard
Summary
“What has stood out to you from tonight?”
Read John 11-12 between now and Sunday
Discuss what you’re learning and your questions with your spouse/friends.
Ask God to reveal what aspect of Jesus he would like you to focus on through this series.
