    Jesus declares that He is the light of the world. As He approaches a blind man, the disciples want to know who has sinned, but Jesus is busy with the Father’s work knowing that the night of the cross is approaching.

    Night is Coming John- major theme- Jesus Christ is the incarnate Word. He is God- He left heaven/took on- body of a man. He who was all God became all man-remained all God Jesus- made seven statements that speak of who He is- I AM the Bread of life I AM the Light of the world I AM the Door of the ...read more

    In our pride, we hesitate to take a donkey as a role model, but the donkey of Palm Sabbath has something to show us. That donkey was literally Christopher--"Christ-bearer."

    based on 18 ratings
     | 12,132 views

    A unique approach to the blessing and jugdment of God. Everything God is is on his right - there is NOTHING left to be at his left.

We’re always hearing in church about the power and the glory – but I wanted to remind everyone today that God has a left ...read more

    Forgiveness is an active choice. Forgetting is a passive process in which a matter fades from our memory with the passing of time. The sad thing is when it comes to people who have offended us, we have total recall.
