The Gospel Of John
Why Easter Matters
March 31, 2024 • John Anderson • John 2:18–25
To those unbelieving Jews who required a sign from Jesus and questioned His authority, He gave this statement: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” Easter is all the proof we need that Jesus is the Son of God, sent to give His life a sacrifice for our sins and to rise again from the dead to assure us an eternity with Him and ultimate victory over sin! Easter forces us to make a decision. You can’t remain neutral.
Our Zealous Lord
March 24, 2024 • John Anderson • John 2:12–17, Psalm 69:9
Jesus appeared to act as the gentle Lamb at the wedding in Cana and now is cleansing the Temple in roaring Lion fashion! What is it that prompted this righteous anger in Jesus? Are we in danger of incurring His anger as well?
A New Beginning
March 17, 2024 • John Anderson • John 2:1–12
John chapter two introduces the first of many miracles that Jesus did that are recorded for us in the Gospels. These miracles verify that He was sent from God and assure us that through believing on Him we can have new life. Do you need a miracle in your life today? Trust the Lord to do what only He can do to meet the need.
Come and See the Son
March 10, 2024 • John Anderson • John 1:35–51
Although Jesus is the Son of God with all the attributes of the holy Father, He is approachable to us sinners. What a privilege! In today’s text we find several individuals who were invited to “come and see” this Jesus. That’s still how people find Him today!
Jesus: The Lamb of God
March 3, 2024 • John Anderson • John 1:19–34
John the Baptist was sent as the messenger, the ambassador to introduce the coming of Messiah, Jesus Christ. Many doubted and wondered if he was claiming to be the Messiah. He simply introduced the “Lamb of God” who would take away the sin of the world, and abolish the Old Testament sacrificial system once and for all.
Jesus: The Explanation of God
February 25, 2024 • John Anderson • John 1:14–18
John continues his opening chapter of his Gospel by revealing another truth about Jesus; He declares God the Father to us. If you want to know about God, just look at Jesus. In His earthly form, Jesus manifested God’s glory to us. He shows us the sum of all the Father’s attributes!
Jesus: The Light of God
February 18, 2024 • John Anderson • John 1:1–13
Without the Light of Jesus expelling the darkness, we could never know what it is like to be born again, to be in proper relationship with God the Father. Light forces us to make a choice. Don’t linger in the darkness - come to the Light!
