Live With The Lamb Series

Contributed by Mike Cleveland on Dec 5, 2007

At Jesus’ invitation we “come and see” where He is staying, and what we see is that our sins are gone, that we have a clean slate and a fresh start, that we are adopted into God’s family, reconciled to our Father, and that we have eternal life.

Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 15, 2005

Nathanael, who is also known as Bartholomew, is confronted by a Saviour who seems to know so much – yet Nathanael is still allowed to be a disciple. We can also be disciples, despite the fact that we are known so well by Jesus.
