    Let us look at the amazing things that Jesus said to this teacher of the Law and how this encounter with Jesus impacted his life. No man spoke like Jesus spoke, and Jesus greatly impacted those he encountered.

    “Encounters with Jesus: A Teacher” Introduction: In Jesus’ life here on Earth he said and did amazing things.

    4th in series of 5. Two different views of this woman (John 8:1-11) The crowd saw her as damaged and worthless. Jesus saw her as damaged and valuable.

    “Honor your father and mother” is one of the Ten Commandments. It seems a bit strange to me when you look at it set along side the other commandments. Why is this so important?
