John 12:37-50 || Sermon 2/29/24

March 3, 2024 • Jonathan Norton • John 12:37–50

In the very first chapter, John says this about Jesus; “In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it…The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:4-5, 9-12)

We see this playing out in John 12 – Even after all the evidence Jesus has given regarding who He is and why He came, many do not believe and many who do believe are afraid to confess their faith.  And yet, Jesus doesn’t walk away, but continues to respond with the truth that no one need stay in darkness because Light has come!
