I AM

Yahweh

July 23, 2017 • Sam Choi

Whenever I call God Yahweh, I think of many different attributes. But most of all, I think, this is a name that is only for his people. It’s a special name that I get to address him as that represents his faithfulness to me. When Jesus says he is Yahweh, he is everything we have seen in the Old Testament.

The True Vine

July 16, 2017 • Jonathan Parnell

Jesus is the true vine. Which means, he is the truer and better Israel — so in all the places where Israel wavered, Jesus will hold fast; in all the places where Israel sinned, Jesus will overcome; in all the places where Israel forsook God over and over again, Jesus will trust God all the way to the very end.

The Way

July 9, 2017 • David Mathis

Jesus is not one lamp among many. He is the singular source of the light of the glory that illumines the world to come. He is the way, the truth, and the life. To believe in the true God is to believe also in Jesus (verse 1). He is in the Father and the Father is in him (verse 11). Jesus is the only way because he and God the Father are one.

The Resurrection and the Life

July 2, 2017 • Jonathan Parnell

Jesus is the resurrection in that, if we believe in him, he will resurrect our physical bodies from the grave at the end of time. And Jesus is the life in that, if we believe in him, he gives us spiritual life now so that we will never spiritually die.

The Good Shepherd

June 25, 2017 • Michael Thiel

But, the Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ, has power. Jesus has power that no one else has. He says, "I choose when I lay down my life, and when I am ready, I will pick it back up again. I have the power to choose when I die and when I will come back to life, because I am LORD over life and death."

The Door of the Sheep

June 18, 2017 • Jonathan Parnell

It’s that there are hundreds of doors out there. There are thousands of doors out there, but there’s only one door that gets you abundant life, and Jesus is saying I’m that door! That is what the contrast is about. That’s what Jesus is saying to us. If we are going to have abundant life, he’s the only door. And he says come on. He tells us to walk through his door.

The Light of the World

June 11, 2017 • Jonathan Parnell

Where every other religion tells you what you must do now in order to make it to heaven, Christianity tells you what you have now, because of Jesus, and that you will have it forever.

The Bread of Life

June 4, 2017 • Joe Rigney

In other words, “Don’t stumble over the sign. I’m the real bread. I don’t just want to fill your belly for a few hours. I want to give you eternal life. I want you to come to me and eat the bread of life. I want you to eat living bread, to feast on me, and be truly satisfied forever.”
