    Jesus is Heaven’s Elevator 1) In Jesus God descends to us 2) In Jesus we ascend to God

    One of the thrills of growing up in a big city like Tokyo was riding skyscraper elevators. In just seconds you would be whisked far above the noise of city traffic and be given a view that is out of this world. On clear days you could even see Mt. Fuji from these skyscrapers. Without elevators, ...read more

    It pays to remind ourselves that Jesus knows us better than anyone.

    Changed by a Christ who knows John 1:40-51 Different people follow Jesus for different reasons. Sometimes they find Him and sometimes He finds them.

    Nathanael, who is also known as Bartholomew, is confronted by a Saviour who seems to know so much – yet Nathanael is still allowed to be a disciple. We can also be disciples, despite the fact that we are known so well by Jesus.

    Message John 1:43-51 “Nathanael – great things are found in the strangest places” Great things can often be found in the strangest places. Maybe you have heard of the Dead Sea Scrolls. They are a large collection of manuscripts … many of them being copies of Old Testament books … which date back ...read more

    When God Speaks

    Contributed by William Mouser on Jan 31, 2006
    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,123 views

    Claims by some that God speaks to them must be tested by two things: the pattern of God’s speaking to individuals recorded in the Bible, and by God’s previous revelation through the Prophets and Apostles.

    When God Speaks Psalm 63, 1 Samuel 3:1 – 20, 1 Corinthians 6:11-20, John 1:43-51 It was interesting for me to survey how other preachers have treated the passages in today’s lectionary, particularly the Old Testament and Gospel lessons for today. There are a number of sites on the internet ...read more

    Discipleship is not a one-time decision; it’s a lifelong journey.

    In these verses, Jesus gains five of His original twelve disciples: (1) Andrew (2) An unnamed disciple (probably John) (3) Simon Peter (Andrew’s brother) (4) Philip (5) Nathanael (perhaps also known as Bartholomew; Bartholomew is linked with Philip in the other three Gospels – Matthew 10:3; Mark ...read more

    The world is searching for answers, and Jesus is the greatest answer to their search.

    Over 20 years ago, before the iron curtain fell, there was a movie called “Red Dawn.” It portrayed the overrunning of the US by a communist invasion in the first few minutes.

    John provides a description of an time proven evangelistic process. (I borrowed part of the introduction from a Sermon Central contributer. Thank you.)

    Introduction I. In the gospel of John, chapter 3 and verse 30, speaking of Christ, John the Baptist will say, “He must increase, but I must decrease.” A. It seems to be that this statement grew from a pattern of life. B. Even as John the Baptist had developed a following, the desire of his ...read more
