  2. Memory Verse1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

  3. The Upper Room DiscourseJohn 13-16John 13:5Cleansing Service, pt 2

  4. “Poured” - BALLO = to throw or cast.

  5. Water = the Word of God;

  6. Water = the Word of God;Satan is trying to throw negative cosmic influence, while Christ is working to wash man clean by throwing His Word into the souls of people.

  7. “Basin” - NIPTER = a vessel for washing the hands and the feet, a basin.

  8. First used in Ex 12:22 in regards to the blood to be placed on the doorpost of the first Passover. A picture of the cross of Jesus Christ and the forgiveness of our sins.

  9. See also Ex 35:16; Lev 8:11; 1Kings 7:30-38; Zech 9:15.

  10. "and began" KAI ARCHO.ARCHO literally means to be first, (in political rank or power), reign (rule) over or figuratively "to begin".

  11. The Ingressive Aorist denotes entrance into a state or condition. Jesus began His Royal High Priestly service.

  12. The Indirect Middle stresses the Lord as producing the action of the verb but also stresses some effect back to Him.

  13. This is a first glimpse at our Lord's right to have bestowed on Him His third royal patent of the "King of kings and Lord of lords".

  14. Because of His saving work to cleanse us of our sins the Father bestowed on Jesus Christ in hypostatic union a new royal title.

  15. The cleansing act of our Lord is also intended to gather a royal family to accompany His new royalty.

  16. “to wash” - NIPTO, = to wash an extremity, e.g. hands or feet.

  17. LOUO means to wash the whole body, verse 10. Therefore, this is not a whole body washing representing salvation.

  18. It is a partial washing representing Rebound because of the sin on their souls post salvation.

  19. “disciples” - MATHETES = pupil, student or disciple.

  20. “disciples” - MATHETES = pupil, student or disciple.They needed to rebound which is necessary for the Grace Apparatus for Perception (GAP), and service.

  21. Christ became our servant at the Cross, so that we could be His slaves in our spiritual walk. 1 Cor 4:1; Eph 6:6; Phil 1:1; Rev 1:1; cf. Rom 16:18

  22. “and to wipe”, - EKMASSO, = to knead or to wipe off clean.

  23. “and to wipe”, - EKMASSO, = to knead or to wipe off clean.The Infinitive expresses the result, they would be experientially clean as a result of rebound.

  24. “He was” - EIMI = "to be" in the Imperfect tense representing that Jesus Christ's cleansing towel is used over and over again.

  25. Every time we sin the towel comes out to wash us, if we receive it via 1 John 1:9.

  26. "the cloth" - DIAZONNUMI is in the Perfect tense representing a completed past action.

  27. Therefore at the cross our sins have been paid for once and for all time and you only need to confess each sin once to receive cleansing.

  28. You don't have to confess the same sin over and over again. One confession of each sin invokes the grace of God to cleanse us from all unrighteousness, 1 John 1:9.

  29. This also eliminates human works for cleansing. You don't have to do the work to make up for your sins. The cleansing towel of our Lord has done all the work.

  30. In order to receive the water of Jesus Christ, (the Word of God), we must wash our feet, (confess our sins / rebound), by recieving the towel of Jesus Christ, (remembering the Cross at Calvary).
