Jesus Defends His Divinity

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 27, 2022

Jesus Christ: The Light Of The World

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Feb 17, 2022

John's Gospel presents seven distinctive claims by the Lord Jesus Christ (John 6:48, 8:12, 10:9, 11, 25, 14:6, 15:5). His claims reveal a great deal about our world, our lives, and what he has to offer us. This message will center on His claim of being "the Light of the World".

The Lord Jesus made it clear to His disciples and those who encountered Him throughout HIs three and a half years of ministry that He was no mere healer, teacher, sage, or model of behavior we could try to emulate. Each of the four Gospels present Him as God Incarnate, the fulfillment of ...read more
