Interpretation of John Chapter 5 Verse 39
In this passage, Jesus is reminding the people that they search the scriptures because they believe that it will lead to eternal life. He then goes on to say that the scriptures not only lead to eternal life but they also bear witness of Him. Jesus is making it clear that He is the source of eternal life and that the scriptures are there to point to Him. He is the way to eternal life, not the scriptures themselves.
