A Tribute To John

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 15, 2000

John the Baptist pays tribute to Jesus; and in recording his words, John the Apostle pays tribute to him.

This portion of John’s gospel, when seen in context with surrounding narrative, at first may appear out of place. John has documented Jesus’ discourse with the Pharisee, Nicodemus, and early in the next chapter he records His conversation with the Samaritan woman by Jacob’s well near Sychar. ...read more

The Twelve Apostles

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Sep 8, 2013

The analysis of Jesus choosing the twelve apostles as set forth in Luke 6:12-16 will show us that Jesus uses ordinary people to accomplish his purposes.

Scripture Jesus came to seek and to save the lost. He was about thirty years of age when he began his public ministry (Luke 3:23) in 28 AD.

"Gaius - A Commendable Christian” Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Mar 22, 2012

Gaius was a believer who is commended by the Apostle John for two things that all believers should seek to have be true of them.

John identifies himself here as “the elder,” which is a term that is used interchangeably ...read more

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 16, 2015

Revelation 6. Quickly John sees an overview of either world history of the final Tribulation. Whichever it is, it clearly will be re-visited in the book. Revelation is not in chronological order. The end of chapter 6 is the end of the world!

Here is where sequential methods of book-reading will not work. Part 3 starts with chapter six, which ...read more
