The Four Wise Men (In The Gospel Of John)

Contributed by Peter Baumgartle on Dec 20, 2023

The Christmas Story in the Gospel of John is far different than the account in Matthew and Luke. There is no baby, no Mary and Joseph, no angels, no shepherds. But there were four wise men.

The Gospel of John, chapter 1: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light ...read more

The Restoration Of Sight And The Reception Of Salvation

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2022

In John 9, we read of the healing and salvation of a poor, blind man who has received not only physical sight, but also spiritual sight to see that Jesus was the Promised One of God. We also witness the deliberate spiritual lack of sight by the religious leaders who rejected the Light of God.

John Newton (1725-1807) was one of the most blasphemous, vile, unscrupulous, cruel, and hateful men who ever made his living by means of the sea. While he had been reared in a goldy home and had been taught the Scriptures by his mother, he walked away from any type of religious faith and for ...read more

Three Crosses On A Hill: A Study In Evangelism

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2022

When we preach about the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for our sins upon the cross, we forget that there were also two men crucified on crosses next to Him. Each man had the opportunity to look to Jesus for grace and mercy. Their response determined their eternal destiny.

The agony of the crucifixion and the final hours of Jesus are recorded in all four gospels, each written with their own unique perspective of what happened that dark day (Matthew 27; Mark 15; Luke 23; John 19). Each one tells of the jeering, mockery, contempt, and seething hatred towards the ...read more
