No Condemnation

Contributed by Michael Forsyth on Jul 10, 2017

Christ—the Light Of The World Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 8, 2017

“I am the light of the world” is the highest claim that He has made so far in the Gospel of John. One of the definitions of God is that He is light (see 1 John 1:5). He is absolute in His holiness and in His justice.

Jerusalem Lesson: Christ—The Light of the World John 8:12-20 Jesus had a method that He often followed. After an incident or a miracle, He gives a discourse on that subject. (John 8:12) Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk ...read more

Family Secrets Series

Contributed by Vic Folkert on Mar 22, 2018

Family secrets harm families. In Jacob's family, there was disunity and favoritism. Family secrets need to be brought into the open, where they can be dealt with. Families can change the way they deal with issues: truth, attitudes, and actions.
