Listening to this teaching for the third time! Thank you Dr. Gore for these in-depth teachings of God's Holy Scriptures. Love that you include the original Greek and Hebrew definitions!
Joy is an highest feeling over our flesh, God uniqueness. Is the certainty of the truth only given to us by grace knowing our Lord by faith. Same as Agape, the only way to experience it is by grace. Like His truth wisdom, everything shared from Him. Human happiness, love, wisdoms, etc, are just derivatives of His truth. This was an awesome massage, God bless you and all you do. Thank you
That view has been out there for a long time, but is not embraced by any credible scholar that I am aware of, and the idea would be foreign to the earliest voices of the church who universally ascribe the Gospel to John.
