    God calls us to decide for Jesus, even when doing so divides families and friends.

    Scripture Introduction Two snowflakes drop softly from a dark cloud. The wind twists and twirls these “friends,” so that appear to play “Tag, you’re it!” One bumps the other, then jumps away; the second chases and almost reaches his “opponent.” They bounce up and down, giggling as they swing ...read more

    There must come a time of godly division when we accept or reject Jesus. John, in this part of his gospel, is pushing his readers to consider their belief about Jesus.

    You may remember this Sunday as the Sunday that Church was no longer safe. (Use video camera). Once in a while, for special occasions and things, we have video taped our worship time and there has been a camera on my face up here. What would happen if we took the focus off the front of the ...read more

    The message looks at the identity of Jesus as found in John 7. The brothers, the people, the Pharisees and Jesus give us the answer to the question, "Who is Jesus?"

    Who is Jesus? John 7:1-44 Introduction In a 1983 Gallup poll Americans were asked "who do you think Jesus is." 70% of those interviewed said Jesus was not just another man. 42% stated Jesus was God among men. 27% felt Jesus was only human but divinely called. 9% states Jesus was divine because ...read more

    The Holy Spirit makes us authoritatively competent to minister to His people. Paul wrote, "He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant - not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life."

    How The Holy Spirit Gives Us Greater Authority John 7:38 (NIV, NIRV, TNIV, KJV) Where Can We Find Greater Authority? Ills. [Everyone] born of God overcomes the world. --1 John 5:4 Most celebrations of national independence mark the day of final victory in the struggle for freedom. ...read more

    Jesus explains that you must have faith in Him to have eternal life.

    In the Gospel of John we read in the third chapter of John starting at verse one; 1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform ...read more

    The leaders of the Jews failed to recognize the Christ because of three obstacles to their hearing: Presumptions, Prejudice, and Pride.

    Hearing God John 7:40-52 (NKJV) * (Funny hearing illustration) * How do you listen to God? How would you have listened to Jesus when He taught?

    Removing The Filters Series

    Often times where someone comes from or how they sound alters how we hear them. This was the case for those hearing Jesus. But if you really listen to his words they do deeper than you can image.

    You’ve heard the ad "People judge you by the words you use. To make a powerful impression you need a powerful vocabulary. You need Verbal Advantage." Though this is true I think we also judge people by how they say words and where they come from. We hear an accent in someone and we think "Deep ...read more

    Exactly what thirst does the Spirit satisfy?

Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him." By this he meant the Spirit... John 7:37-39 It’s ...read more

     | 7,041 views

    In order to have hope, we must believe in something. It is not something given by man - which is why Jesus said, “Come to me”. Where do you find hope? What do you choose to satisfy you when the chaos of the world invades your life?

    Hope in Christ John 7:25-44 Introduction - The gospel of John screams of the faith that we should have in Christ -- It is the clearest example of living life FOR the one who redeemed you and I - Turmoil today is out of control … -- Many are asking, "Who is in charge?" -- What ...read more

    A. JESUS’ PRAYER WAS FOUNDATIONAL 1. Jesus had much to do in ministry but spent time in prayer before, during and after. 2. Jesus had pressure from the crowds, satanic opposition, the Pharisees and the agenda of His disciples, but He prayed. 3. Prayer took priority over ...read more

    Jesus is the Messiah, the promised one who would rule over an everlasting kingdom as God’s anointed king. We are called on to make a response to Jesus. Do we acclaim him as our king or reject him because he doesn’t meet our expectations?

    You probably won’t be surprised to discover that there’s a link between this chapter and the previous one. Last week we saw how some people find it hard to believe in Jesus, because faith is a spiritual activity and they’re basically materialists, or because they don’t ...read more
