Jesus displays His presence and power so that we may be accountable to Him when temptations beset us and assured by Him when trials besiege us.

Believing in God and the things he has done is the only way into heaven. 3. If we do not believe in God and the things that he has done hell will be our final ...read more

John The Baptist's Question Series

Contributed by Leighton (Lee) Vary on Mar 21, 2017

John had predicted the coming of the Messiah just as the prophets of old had predicted. In his mind the Messiah was coming to baptize people with the Spirit of God and with fire. But now, he wondered. Was Jesus really the Messiah? He had to know.

I. Introduction A. Lets read Matthew 11:1 - 3 as our introduction Matthew 11:1-3 (NKJV) Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities. {2} And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he ...read more

John-Son Of Thunder Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 18, 2021

When John wrote his Gospel the other three were already written and well known. They are so negative on John that he probably thought there was little he could add, so he ignores himself all together in his own Gospel.

The Testimony Of John The Baptist

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 21, 2021

John the Baptist is presented in the prologue of John's gospel as the prophesied forerunner to the arrival of God's Messiah. He prepared the people of Israel for the Messiah by preaching repentance and obedience. Repentance was needed then, and in these last days as well.

So far in John's prologue to his magnificent account of the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ, we were introduced to the person and ministry of John the Baptist, described as "a man sent from God" (1:6) and who was to "bear witness of the Light" (1:7-8). He bore ...read more

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

The Murder Of John The Baptist

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 29, 2020

For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly. Mark 6:20.

THE MURDER OF JOHN THE BAPTIST. Matthew 14:1-12. This passage begins with Jesus, and ends with Jesus. It was inevitable that Herod Antipas should have “heard of the fame of Jesus” (Matthew 14:1). It was natural, too, that John’s disciples - like any true believer - should resort to Jesus in ...read more
