    Mary was the first to see Jesus alive and the first to hear His voice. And although it is true that at first she did not recognize Him, but when she did, she became the first evangelist in Christian history.

    It's Time To Declare Our Belief

    Contributed by John Hamby on May 17, 2026
     | 147 views

    It is interesting that at the time when all of the Apostles forsake Jesus and flee, a time when all hope for the movement associated with the name of Jesus seems gone, that it is at this time that two “secret” disciples boldly step out and see to it that Jesus is given a proper burial.

    “It’s Time To Declare Our Belief!” John 19:31-42 Jesus’ horrific death on the cross is now complete. “Jesus, aware that His suffering of ...read more

    The Crucifixion Of Jesus

    Contributed by John Hamby on May 4, 2026

    The Divine Restraint

    Contributed by John Hamby on Apr 12, 2026
     | 174 views

    John is silent about the Lord’s agony in the garden. John confines himself almost exclusively to the arrest of Jesus and in showing that at all times everything was under the control of Jesus, He not only embraces the crisis that will result in the cross, He orchestrated it!

    “The Divine Restraint” John 18:1-11 In our last study of the book of John we heard Jesus praying His great prayer in the presence of His Disciples. But now ...read more
