Backstabbers

Contributed by Scott Maze on Aug 12, 2025

Jesus didn’t treat Judas any differently than He did the other Twelve. Shakespeare cannot have Jesus say, “Et tu, Judas,” because Jesus knew what was coming. And even though Jesus knew what was coming, He didn’t treat Judas any differently than He did any other disciple over those three years.

Find John 13 with me, if you will. Many of you recognize the phrase “Et Tu, Brute?” immediately. It’s Latin for “You too, Brutus?” It’s a quote from Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar, where the Roman dictator speaks to his friend Marcus Junius Brutus. Caesar recognizes Brutus as one of his ...read more

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 19, 2022

Jesus is leaving soon. "Believe" him, ask for anything, and love one another.

This morning we continue our series in the Gospel of John. And we are one of the many points in the book, where I'm not sure how I should try to teach it. Really, chapters 13-17 work as one giant section, and we are supposed to grab them in their entirety, and hear them in one setting. ...read more

Glorification And Love.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 20, 2022

The mutual glorification of the Son of man and of God. The love of Jesus as a model for our love for one another.

GLORIFICATION AND LOVE. John 13:31-35. The inevitable process which would culminate in the self-sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf was reaching its climax. Jesus spoke of the reciprocal “glorification” of both “God” and “the Son of man” (John 13:31-32). In this we have the “glory” of the Cross ...read more

The Mark Of True Discipleship

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 8, 2025

Our Lord reveals that love is the proof of discipleship. Without love, our titles, gifts, and spiritual activities are meaningless.

THE MARK OF TRUE DISCIPLESHIP By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: John 13:31-35 "Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify ...read more

Loving All The Way Until It Hurts Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 14, 2025

Remember that the letter to the Hebrews tells us that Jesus Himself was made perfect through suffering. If we, too, want to share in His glory, we must also be prepared to suffer, perhaps a lot. And loving can involve suffering too, can't it?

Fifth Sunday of Easter 2025 Pope St. John Paul II looked at Our Lord Jesus as the fulfillment of what we might call “human potential.” He was and is the man that Adam was created to become. Lamentably, Adam and Eve tried the Satanic shortcut, attempting to become divine by disobeying a direct ...read more
