    [Play trailer from “Vantage Point”] That movie, “Vantage Point” was one of my favorite movies from recent years.

    We might be surprised if we really knew how many people there are that really don’t understand, what being “born again” really means, and what being “saved” really consists of.

    John 1: 12-13 WHAT DOES THE BIBLE MEAN, TO BE BORN AGAIN? 1-3-09 I believe this is the appropriate message to start the New Year out with, becoming a new creature in Christ Jesus. Listen as I read today’s text found in JOHN 1:12-13 12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become ...read more

    Who Is Jesus?

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Jan 7, 2009
     | 3,496 views

    John pointed out that Jesus is true God as well as true man. His diety as well as his manhood were required for him to assure our salvation.

    Introduction The Gospel of John was the last of the four Gospels written around 85 A.D. by the Apostle called “the disciple Jesus loved.” Where the first three Gospels have many of the same stories, language and events described, the Gospel of John is different.

    Pointing To The Light Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 11, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,353 views

    John the Baptist knew who he was not and who he was, and accepted his task of pointing to Christ. Our mistakes are imagining that we are more than we are, or that we are less than we are. The real task is: just point to the light.

    This message examines the implications of Jesus’ incarnation.

    Each of the Gospel writers chooses a different starting point from which they begin their account of Jesus’ life. John reaches beyond the boundaries of time and into eternity before the world ever existed. John starts his Gospel much like Moses started the book of Genesis, “in the beginning.” Wait ...read more
