The ladder

John 5:16-18; 6:32-42; 10:30-38

1. What links heaven and earth?

Jesus is the bread that came down from heaven to earth. So that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life.

2. Why did the Jews try to kill Jesus?

Because Jesus was doing good things through work on the Sabbath, the Jews persecuted him. Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working."

For this reason the Jews tried all the harder to kill him; not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God. Jesus said "Father is in me, and I in the Father".
