    John wondered about Jesus. He had just gotten done preaching how Messiah would come in power and judgment, instead of cleaning house Jesus is preaching love your enemies and turn the other cheek. It is little wonder John had doubts!

We cannot claim to have ...read more

    The central message of John 3:16 can be compared to the donation of life giving organs. The donation requires a life, one life sacrificed can provide for several lives, there is no way to say thank-you for such a gift. John 3:16 is very similar.

    Introduction This morning, we look at the shortest possible description of the whole Gospel. John 3:16 is a marvelous passage beloved by so many. Luther referred to it as the Gospel, within the Gospel, or, the Gospel within a nutshell. And such it is. This short verse of less than thirty words ...read more
