Jesus Christ: Our Divine Teacher, Part 1

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 30, 2021

The third chapter of John's Gospel gives us a portrait of the Lord Jesus as the Divine Teacher. He has already been presented as the Light, The Word of God, the Lamb of God, and the Messiah. Now He gives His attention to teach us how to flee the darkness of this world and come to the Light, ...read more

A Man Born Blind Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 23, 2017

Is seeing believing? Are you looking to see God at work in the world? Are you pointing out those works of God to others so they too can see? Jesus said : “We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work.”

Blindness is a terrible thing. Our sight is central to so much that we enjoy in the world. Whether it’s the beauty of nature, or the smile on a other person’s face when they see you coming; whether it’s the control it gives you over the world around you, or the freedom that it ...read more
