    41 Follow Me and Feed My Sheep
    2021/12/19
    * During the past nine months we have been considering John's presentation of Jesus - the Son of God who became flesh in order that He might become the payment for our sins, as the Lamb of God. Jesus became that payment - the sacrifice to take away our sins - when He was crucified. Jesus' final statement on the cross was: "It is Finished!" Three days later, He rose bodily from the dead, appearing first to Mary Magdalene and then to two disciples traveling to Emmaus (cf. Luke 24:13-35). Last week we covered the third and fourth appearances of Jesus, which were the first two appearances to His disciples after His resurrection - first to 10 of the 11 (Thomas was missing) and then to all 11. Today we cover the last chapter in the Gospel of John. * Speaking of Jesus' disciples, Luke writes in Acts 1:3 - "... to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God." The New Testament records at least 10 appearances by Jesus to various people and groups during this forty day period. John ends his account with one of these, where Jesus appears to seven of His disciples in Galilee along the shore of the Sea of Tiberias (also known as the Sea of Galilee). This appearance shows us three different ways that this is the same risen Jesus as the Jesus the disciples had known prior to the crucifixion. Jesus challenges Peter to "Follow Me" and to "Feed My sheep". * This message was presented on December 19, 2021 by David Hayes.

    * During the past nine months we have been considering John's presentation of Jesus - the Son of God, who became flesh, in order that He might become the payment for our sins, as the Lamb of God. Over the past couple of weeks we have been considering that very payment. Jesus' final statement on the cross was: "It is Finished!" Three days later, He rose from the dead. This was the attestation that God had truly accept His sacrifice for our sins was accepted. * After Jesus rose from the dead, He appeared to Mary Magdalene and then to two disciples traveling to Emmaus (cf. Luke 24:13-35). * Today, we examine Jesus' next two appearances, these are with His disciples in the upper room. * This message was presented on December 12, 2021 by Bob Corbin.

    39 Why are you Weeping?

    * Over the past couple of weeks, we have been considering the final hours of Christ's earthly ministry - from His example of humility in washing the disciples' feet to His sacrificial gift of Himself upon the cross for the sins of the world. * The final message of Jesus upon the cross was "It is Finished!" In the Greek, that was the word "tetelestai." It is in the perfect tense, indicating a past action with a continuing result. Jesus stated that in His sacrifice, He was completing all that needed to be accomplished in order for the penalty of our sins to be paid. * Today, we examine the confirmation of that sacrificial offering; the attestation that God had truly accepted that offering: His Resurrection! * We will examine first of the initial impact of this event upon the lives of some principal participants and then the importance of the Resurrection itself upon mankind. * This message was presented on December 5, 2021 by Bob Corbin.

    38 It Is Finished!

    * We have been considering John's declaration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for the past nine months. We have seen that the purpose of John's gospel is to reveal Jesus as the Son of God who became the Lamb of God in order to take away the sins of the world. * Today, we come to the fulfillment - the consummation - of this purpose, when Jesus offers Himself for the sins of the world! * Last week we saw the perplexity of Pilate as he interacted with Jesus, and then his ultimate capitulation of the Truth because of the fear of men. * Today, we see again how God takes what is meant for evil and uses it for good. Satan, seeking to destroy the plan of God actually fulfilled the plan of God! * This message was presented on November 28, 2021 by Bob Corbin.

    37 Behold Your King!

    * Last week we considered Jesus' arrest in the garden by the soldiers and religious leaders. He was led by them to Annas and then Caiaphas to be interrogated by them. We focused last week upon Jesus' rebuke of Peter (considering the discussion of the sword and the cup) and Peter's denial of Jesus. * Today, we want to look at the trials themselves. Specifically, I would like to present it from the perspective of Pilate - as one who is being confronted with the truth. * This message was presented on November 21, 2021 by Bob Corbin.

    * We have taken the past two months to consider Jesus' final moments with His disciples. All that we have been studying has happened in just a few hours. We considered His institution of the Lord's Supper, His example of loving servanthood, His promises (of a home in heaven and of His presence on earth), His warning of coming persecution, and His prayer for their (and our) unity. * Today, we consider the actions of Jesus and His disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane ... seeing once again the proclamation of Jesus' deity, and the conclusion of Jesus' prophetic proclamation of Peter's denial of Him. * This message was presented on November 14, 2021 by Bob Corbin.

    35 The High Priestly Prayer of Christ
    2021/11/07
    * Last week, we began to consider Jesus' prayer at the end of His time of instruction with His disciples. He asked the Father to glorify Him with the glory that He shared with the Father before the world came into existence! In the midst of this request, He also provided a definition of eternal life. Eternal life is relationally knowing God the Father and Jesus the Messiah, who had been sent out of, and by, the Father. * Today, we will consider Jesus' requests on behalf of those who follow Him - His disciples. * This message was presented on November 7, 2021 by Bob Corbin.

    * We have spent the last eight months studying John's account of the ministry of Jesus Christ - the Son of God who became the Lamb of God in order to take away the sin of the world. * Over the past two months, we have been studying chapters 13-16 which record Jesus' actions and instructions to His disciples during the final hours of His life. They traveling to the Garden of Gethsemane where He will pray and then, subsequently, be arrested. However, before they arrive there, Jesus takes a moment to pray for His disciples. We have the blessing of having that High Priestly prayer of Jesus recorded for our learning. * Today, we will consider the first eight verses of chapter 17, which records an important request of Jesus'. * This message was presented on October 31, 2021 by Bob Corbin.
