Just a few verses and his physical blindness is gone. But then Jesus takes the rest of the chapter (41 verses) to do something even more important – to heal his spiritual blindness, to help him to truly see God for the first time

The Gospel Of John: An Introduction Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 31, 2021

Arguably with no other book, is there a larger disconnect between academic, scholarly understanding, and the way the church reads it. The intro is designed to bridge part of that gap, and explain my own approach to John.

First of all, a note on my approach: This series uses a literary/narrative approach to John, along the lines proposed by scholars like Adele Berlin, Frank Kermode, Robert Alter, or Charles Talbert, to name just a few. I assume that the author/narrator of John-- who I call "AJ"-- had ...read more

Occupy Till I Come

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Jan 24, 2022

You are saved to serve and not to be served. Your occupation is to win souls to God's kingdom. God expects to make 'profit' from your salvation. You are a fruit bearing tree planted by God.

TEXT: Luke 19:13 "And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come." SAVED TO SERVE God has deposited his grace upon your life for a purpose. He called and chose you from the darkness of this world for a reason. He made you the light ...read more

Jesus Gives Sight, To Those Who Want It (John 9:1-41) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 8, 2022

Jesus gives physical sight, and spiritual sight. By chapter's end, the only blind ones left are the Pharisees. Have to be open-minded, and know what you don't know.

At this point in the gospel of John, some of you are maybe feeling a little confused. John is not a very easy book. Jesus' words seem complicated-- they are "from above," as he is from above, and we struggle to climb up, and view things from above, and understand them from ...read more

Jesus Is The Better Shepherd (John 10:1-21) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Feb 10, 2022

John's readers who have chosen to hear Jesus, and follow him, and become part of his flock, have upgraded their shepherd. Jesus is a better shepherd than the Pharisees.

Let's start today by simply reading John 10:1: (1) Truly, truly, I say to you, the one not entering through the gate/door into the inner courtyard of the sheep, but going up from some other place-- that one, a thief, he is, and a robber. When we read this, we should notice something, ...read more

I went and washed, and I received sight.

SIGHT FOR THE BLIND. John 9:1-12. JOHN 9:1. The man born blind represents every man, for just as he was born without physical sight, so are we all born spiritually blind (cf. Romans 1:21). JOHN 9:2.

Was Blind But Now I See.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2022

He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

WAS BLIND BUT NOW I SEE. John 9:13-25. JOHN 9:13. The neighbours brought the now-seeing man-born-blind to the Pharisees. Perhaps they felt that such an astounding miracle needed further investigation. JOHN 9:14. The author comments here that “it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, ...read more

He Opened My Eyes.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2022

If this man were not of God He could do nothing.

HE OPENED MY EYES. John 9:26-41. JOHN 9:26-28. The Pharisees again asked the man born blind HOW Jesus had opened his eyes. The man expressed surprise that they wanted to hear his testimony all over again. Did they perhaps also want to be Jesus’ disciples? Apparently the man himself did. The ...read more

I Am The Light Of The World – Light In The Darkness – John 9 - Part 1 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 2, 2022

Greater sin leads to greater darkness. A man in darkness can not find his way. The Lord would work in the light of the day with man’s darkness, so that the night of his darkness would become like the light of the day. Jesus is the Light of the World.

A Good Listener

Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Sep 27, 2022

We live in a world where we have more ‘speak-ers’ than ‘listen-ers’. Everyone wants to be heard. Give opinions. Suggest an idea. Give counsel. Make recommendations. But no one wants to listen.

The Truth About Sin

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Dec 28, 2023

Too many people are convinced that God will never forgive them for their sins. I'm here to tell you that is nonsense! In this message, I want to show the truth about sin that no one has the faith to tell you.

Today, I want to teach on a rather sensitive subject. A subject most people don't want to hear about, talk about, or even read about. Sin. I want to teach on this subject because so many people have been taught so foolishly about sin. And because of what they've heard from Preachers, ...read more

Four Wonderful Miracles (The Messianic Miracles Of The Lord)

Contributed by Eric Hanson on Feb 29, 2024

The Pharisees and the rabbinical school taught that when the Messiah came, he would do certain miracles that nobody had ever done before. In this sermon, you will see that Jesus fulfilled this template perfectly, but was rejected by the Sanhedrin anyway.

Four Wonderful Miracles Pastor Eric J. Hanson March 3rd 2024 This message is designed to give us a look at how Jesus revealed himself to be the Messiah (anointed one and coming King) of the Jews. In the process of this revelation, He revealed a great heart of love and compassion for the people. He ...read more
