John 7:27-31
27 However, we know where this Man is from; but when the Christ comes, no one knows where He is from.” 28 Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, saying, “You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know. 29 But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He sent Me." 31 And many of the people believed in Him, and said, “When the Christ comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man has done?”
The Jews did not see the scriptures telling where Jesus would come from, but the real issue of where the Christ was to come was not the town but from above. The signs He did were only to backup the words as divine in origin. So they should see and know where He is from - God the Father in heaven. So we should see and remember who He is as well; not what we are expected to by men or even churches, but from what He has said already.
