Seeing God Series

Contributed by Jim Drake on Nov 25, 2008

Have you ever wished that God would show Himself to you? Did you know that He already has? We’ll see that in our passage today as we look at the prologue to John’s gospel.

Do you ever wonder what it must be like to see God? I’ve heard it said that for us to try to see God in His fullness and completely describe Him would be like a germ trying to describe the universe. In and of Himself, God is completely incomprehensible to man. In His eternal three-in-one ...read more

"One Way Only" Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Jul 11, 2016

For many years now there has been a great deal of controversy over the Scripture we are looking at today.

The Lord Prays (John 17)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 8, 2025

When Jesus prayed for us, what was important to Him? Let's look at John 17.

Did Jesus pray for His disciples? Did He pray for us? Did He pray for unity? Let’s look at John 17. Many have labeled the “Our Father” as the Lord’s prayer, but could His prayer here also be labeled the Lord’s prayer? After saying all these things, Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, the ...read more
