    The Witness Of Scriptures Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jun 9, 2008
    based on 54 ratings
     | 31,501 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

    God has given us the one message we are to preach and teach and live and give. It is the gospel.

    Let’s turn in our Bibles to John chapter 5. We’ve been in this chapter now for a full month as we work our way through the gospel of John. Let’s pray together: Father in Heaven, we have come here today hoping to meet with You, longing to be in Your presence, desiring to hear from You. “As the ...read more

    A sermon "performed" as a monologue from the first person perspective (Joseph of Arimathea) about Jesus’ claim to be the Messiah in John 5.

    [Come in, fully dressed in Jewish costume] Shalom! Good morning, My name is Joseph, (but according to your culture, you can call me Joe). I am from Arimathea, a region in the Northwest of Jerusalem [1]. I am a nobleman among the seventy members of the Sanhedrin of Jerusalem, (or Ruling Council in ...read more

    The Coming Of Christ In John Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Oct 2, 2015
     | 4,455 views

    The word "come" is extremely important in the purpose and ministry of Jesus; it is also important in the teaching of salvation. We are taking a few weeks to understand the "coming of the Kingdom of God" in the gospels and Old Testament.

    “The Coming of Christ in John” John 5:43 Did you ever notice how important little words are? Many times we might throw out “big two dollar words” with the intention of impressing people, but the ...read more

    Have you ever found yourself trying to get people’s approval? I’m sure we have all been in this position but sometimes we can go a little overboard with it-even be obsessed with it. Let’s see why this is a problem and what we can do to overcome it.

    There must be a dialogue between science and faith, but it must also be an unequal dialogue; faith trumps the claims of any science that denies God.

    Thursday of Fourth Week in Lent 2016 Joy of the Gospel In this fourth week of Lent, the week of Laetare Sunday–Joy Sunday– it is quite appropriate to continue our series on Pope Francis’s encyclical, the Joy of the Gospel. Let’s be clear that joy and enjoyment are not ...read more

    Faith That Fails

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 23, 2009
     | 5,127 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.

    God wants us to know Him. He has given us His word so that we will discover His character and the wonderful things He has prepared for us.

    There are things that God only does for those who are related to Him that He will not do for all people. This is the privilege of those who belong to Him and know Him. That is why God wants Himself to be known by us, so that in knowing Him we will be confident in following Him wholeheartedly. He ...read more

    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.
