Arrest And Trials | John 18:1-14
Arrest And Trials | Now that we've finished Jesus' upper room discourse, we begin moving into the climax of John's gospel. Jesus has prepared His disciples for His departure, and now things are about to get very real. In John 18, we see Jesus arrested, tried, and beaten. While the Jewish leaders think they are enacting justice for God, they are actually punishing the God they claim to serve. And while the Son of God is taking punishment from man's faulty justice system, He is moving towards the cross, where He will take the punishment we deserve and instead offer us incredible grace.
Be On Guard | John 13:21-38
Be On Guard | We often hear people say Christians are supposed to be different from the rest of the world, but how. In what ways are Christians supposed to distinguish themselves from those who do not know God? As we continue our series on the Gospel of John, Jesus is going to answer that question very plainly. He is going to say it is LOVE. Listen in as we look at Jesus’ words to His disciples as He describes the defining characteristic of being one of His followers.
