The Gospel of John - Whose Praise?

Read John 12:37-43

Many people did believe in him, however, including some of the Jewish leaders. But they wouldn’t admit it for fear that the Pharisees would expel them from the synagogue. For they loved human praise more than the praise of God.- John 12:42-43 (NLT)


Believing in Jesus has consequences. It will change the way some people receive us and react to us. Each of us must choose, every day, whether to value the approval of other people more than the approval of God. Pray that God would show you what fears are keeping you from whole-heartedly following Him, and to dispel those fears.
