    He who gave sight to the blind desires to give you sight in the spiritual world. Jesus wants to light your way & lead you into life. Into your darkness of sin & uncertainty Jesus shines so that He may lead you into eternal life.

    JOHN 8: 12-20 THE LIGHT OF LIFE Once again Jesus intensifies the heated controversy with the amazing claim that He is the Light of the World.

    The disciples on the road to Emmaus had their eyes opened when the bread was broken. The songwriter wrote, "at the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light..." The cross opens our eyes.

    Johyn 8. Nicky Cruz was the leader of the toughest gang in New York City. His Satanist parents abused him brutally, so he grew up a hardened man void of love and full of hate. “I wanted to do to others what my mother did to me,” Nicky says. “I used to feel good when I hurt people.” But privately, ...read more

    So why did Jesus come? Why the miracles? Why the cross? John 8 tells us about WHO He is and WHY He came...

    We find the "Scarlet Letter" Story... John 8:1-11 Woman caught ’red-handed’ by those that obeyed Moses’ law - asking Jesus what should be done ’cause she broke the law... (Deut 22:22 - ’put to death’) The law had convicted her & they hoped Jesus would condemn her (since they were ’too holy’ to ...read more

    Some people will believe early, some later. We are to remain faithful in praying for and witnessing to those who have not believed in Jesus.

    Ill. Persistence * Proverbs 3:5-6 basically says “Trust in God, Stop trying to fit God into your logic. Just look for His hand around you, and then that Hand will guide you.” * But I say, “Lord, that is how I try to live, but…” * What about those we are praying for?

    I Am The Light Of The World Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 4, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,231 views

    What does it mean when Jesus says He is the Light of the World? He spoke to a culture thoroughly verse in the Old Covenant, and so to understand the significance of His words, we will need to explore what the people heard when He spoke.

    ”Again Jesus spoke to [the Jewish leaders], saying, ‘I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.’ So the Pharisees said to him, ‘You are bearing witness about yourself; your testimony is not true.’ Jesus answered, ‘Even if I do bear ...read more

    It’s the message that needs to be proclaimed to the world. Man’s search for an earthly deliverer or Messiah is futile. Man’s earthly search for utopia is futile.

    Tonight’s study will not be as long as others have been. We are only going to look at 4 verses tonight. READ. Jesus has just tried to explain to the Pharisees that He is the Light of the world. Of course they didn’t believe it. The Pharisees had just asked Jesus to show them His ...read more

    Let's understand the context¡KJesus has just claimed to be the ¡§Light of the world,¡¨ and His critics are outraged at such audacity. They¡¦d like to yell, ¡§Who do you think you are!¡¨ but He just got finished telling them who He was. His self-disclosure is indeed outrageous if it isn¡¦t true. ...read more

    As Moses lifted up the healing serpent, so the Jews lifted up Christ, the healer, on the cross, so that we might take him and be transformed.

    April 4, 2006 Tuesday of 5th week in Lent If we read John’s Gospel from start to finish, one of the impressions we get over and over again is that Jesus was surrounded by idiots and incompetents.
