[John 7:1-24] Dealing with Familiar Spirits: In Part 1 of John 7, Jesus is confronted by His family because they don't like the bad light He is casting them in. Jesus' natural family was sorely disadvantaged by the things that Jesus said and did. They want to stop Him, and if they can't stop Him, they want Him to get things over with and bring an end to the pressure they are experiencing because of who He is and what He is doing. Have you ever inconvenienced your family because of your obedience to God?
