    Faith That Fails

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 23, 2009
     | 5,054 views

    A message that seeks to encourage believers to have faith in Christ, and not faith in faith or faith in themselves.

    JOHN 5:39-47 FAITH THAT FAILS “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me, yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life. I do not receive glory from people. But I know that you do not have the love of God ...read more

     | 9,561 views

    Jesus has just claimed to be equal with God, to give eternal life (18), to be the source of life (26) & to be the judge of life (27). Are there any other witnesses to support this almost unbelievable claim? There most certainly are!

    JOHN 5: 33-38 WITNESSES FOR THE DIVINE SON [Isaiah 35:5-6] Jesus has just claimed to be equal with God, to give eternal life (18), to be the source of life (26), and to be the judge of life (27). Jesus was claiming to be divine. Are there any ...read more

    The Witness Of Scriptures Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jun 9, 2008
    based on 54 ratings
     | 31,398 views

    Openness to God precedes the reception of Scripture truth. We are not to guide Scriptures, they are to guide us...to God. We are not to make Scriptures say what we think or want them to say, but let them say what God desires to reveal.

    JOHN 5: 39-47 THE WITNESS OF THE SCRIPTURES [Luke 24: 25-27, 44-49 / Luke 16: 19-31] The previous passage tried to teach us that openness to belief must precede the reception of truth. Now John affirms that openness to God precedes the reception ...read more

    Four Witnesses Series

    Contributed by Jim Drake on Nov 16, 2009
    based on 10 ratings
     | 15,138 views

    Who is Jesus to you? Is He just a moral teacher? Is He just a storybook character? Throughout John chapter 5, Jesus claimed to be God. And in today’s passage, He brings four witnesses to the stand to corroborate His testimony.

    Conquering Sin (1): Jesus' View Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Nate Herbst on Jan 16, 2009
    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,212 views

    Knowing How He views my sin is vitally important if I’m to experience victory over it; this message describes His view of me and my sin and the encouragement to run to Him when I sin.

    Relationship with Christ is everything. Nothing “deeper.” How did Jesus respond to Sin? It is vitally important to know and be convinced of how He responds to my sin, so that when I sin I can go to Him immediately. Lk.5:31-32 - “Jesus answered them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but ...read more

    The Validity Of Jesus

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 4, 2013
     | 5,506 views

    The Jews had a problem with Jesus healing the cripple by the pool on the Sabbath. Jesus used the opportunity to try to show them that he was the real deal; and quite frankly-they were not.

    THE VALIDITY OF JESUS John 5:16-47 1) Like Father, like Son (vs. 16-30). • Jesus is equal to the Father (vs. 16-18). Vs. 16-17-God created in six days and rested on the seventh.

    Why didn’t Jesus heal everybody at the pool of Bethesda? Why just one paralytic?

    You might want to look up the word 'sycophant' in a dictionary. It well describes Jesus' opponents in this passage

    Jesus and the Sycophants John 5:31-47 Introduction Last week we talked about the heated discussion that erupted between The Jews who were angry that Jesus had healed and done other work on the Sabbath and Jesus.

     | 7,874 views

    In the Greek integrity meant to be true, genuine, trustworthy, reliable, and valid. We must live up to those virtues today.

    Last week we began looking at flaws in our lives that might hinder us from being effective ambassadors for Jesus. Patience was our subject from last week. We read about Saul’s lack of patience and how it led to disobedience. This disobedience caused an end to come to his kingdom, a kingdom ...read more

    Truth is not only a matter of the head, embracing truth through our rational abilities, but also through the disposition of our inward choice.

    Intro – The Heart of Truth Let me begin by asking a question… is truth a matter of the head or the heart? Do we embrace truth through the deduction of our rational abilities… or through the disposition of our inward choice? This is an issue that Jesus is going to challenge us with ...read more
