John 9:1-42 "Visual Aid"

In this Bible Study from Sunday morning at Calvary Fellowship of Ottawa, Pastor Andy Falleur read John 9 and talked about how the blind man there was a visual aid to Jesus’s declaration: “I am the light of the world.” It’s possible that he didn’t have eyes, because Jesus put dirt in his eyes, and no one recognized him after he was healed. It was also good to see how the man never saw Jesus, only heard his voice, and had to “blindly obey.” He’s so much like us, in that we are blinded by sin, may not get to see what the Lord wants to do, but need to simply trust and obey when we hear His word.
This was a special Bible Study as we were gathered this week in the afternoon at Britannia Park in Ottawa. We had a baptism directly afterwards.

John 17:20-26 - High Priestly Prayer - Pt.3 - Jesus Prays For All Believers

May 15, 2022 • John Cowan • John 17:20–26

In His prayer for all believers (“those who will believe in Me through [the disciples’] word”), focuses on Spiritual Unity, Heavenly Hope, and Perfect Love. Many see this as a mandate exhorting believers to work to build unity. It is not. We are exhorted elsewhere to seek unity (i.e. Phil. 2:1-4). But here, Jesus prays that we may be so united with Him - as He is with the Father - that unity in the church will be the natural by-product. Unity in the Body of Christ requires humility and mutual respect. That only comes as we are joined in intimate union with Jesus. How personal is your relationship with Jesus?

Luke 22:42

May 8, 2022 • Andrew Hamilton • Luke 22:42

Have you ever realized that your expectations were different from God's expectations? Have you ever wondered what happened in the history of the Bible from when Israel split into two kingdoms until the time of Christ? This sermon starts with a fictional character who gives a true historical account of those time frame. We see the character, Aaron, unable to align His expectations with Jesus' expectations, even after He has died and rose again. Aaron wants to fight for the freedom of his people, and is determined that the Messiah will too. The sermon then goes to Luke 22 where Jesus is praying at the Mount of Olives and says, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." (Luke 22:42). We are then faced with this question: Are we aligning our will and expectations with the Father, or are we, like Aaron, unwilling to change our expectations?

John 17:6-19 - High Priestly Prayer - Pt.2 - Jesus Prays For His Disciples

May 1, 2022 • John 17:6–19

In verse 3, Jesus gave the essence of salvation - knowing Him. Here He gives 1) More of what it means to trust Jesus: Holding on the God’s Word and Living it out in our lives, 2) The Assurance we have in trusting Him: He keeps us and prays for us, and 3) the Mission we have as believers: As Jesus was sent into the world, so He sends us. To fulfill our calling we need to be in the world, not of it. The challenge is to be in the world without the world getting into us!
