The Light of Men

December 4, 2022 • Roy Stokes • John 1:1–5

As we begin to celebrate the first Advent of Jesus using John 1:1-18 where Jesus’ birth isn’t even mentioned, how do we prepare to celebrate Christmas without the story of baby Jesus? When we grasp the meaning of the Gospel of John’s preamble (John 1:1-18) the meaning of the Christmas story we find in Matthew and Luke is much more profound.

Best Gift Ever

December 18, 2022 • Jim McCracken • John 1:14–18

Grace for our salvation… And Grace for everything else… All of that comes from One… One full of grace and truth… The Christmas baby Jesus… God with us… And God For us… Best Gift Ever…!

Born of God

December 11, 2022 • Michael McCracken • John 1:6–13

Jesus is God in the flesh. The Son of God. He came as a baby in the fullness of time to redeem those lost in darkness. God wasn’t hoping for the best when He sent His one and only Son. Jesus was going to overcome the darkness as the true light. People would indeed believe because people had indeed been born of God!
