John: Lamb of God

Scripture Text: John 1:19-34

In week two of our series in John we look at John the Baptist and how he viewed himself and how he viewed Christ.  Turns out he didn't even really see himself, he just saw Christ.  And he saw Christ as three things:  Lamb of God, Baptizer in the Holy Spirit and Son of God.  In this weeks message we explore what that meant to John and what it means to us.

John: The First Sign

Scripture Text: John 2:1-11

The miracle of Jesus turning water into wine was more than just saving a bridal couple from social embarrassment.  It's a sign that reveals something significant about who Jesus, what he means and why he came.  The lesson in this miracle is to be the lens through which we view the call of Jesus to follow him with total commitment.  What it points to is our relationship to Jesus as that of a bride to her groom!  In viewing Christ like that, total commitment takes on a new dimension.

John: Cleansing the Temple

Scripture Text: John 2:13-22

Jesus was zealous for the temple, for His House, meant to be a house of prayer for all people - for the nations.  It was distorted and corrupted in his day, and so came in anger.  But through his death and resurrection he has restored the true temple, access back to Eden and so now made us to be His New Temple - filled with the Holy Spirit we are to be that reflection of his glory and light to the nations.  He is still zealous for His temple.  He is zealous for you!

John: The New Birth

Scripture Text: John 3:1-15

Jesus said to Nicodemus unless you are born again of water and the Spirit, you cannot enter the Kingdom of God.  Being born again, Jesus said, is an absolute necessity.  Why is that?  And what does it mean to be born again and how do you know that you are born again?  Those are the questions tackled in this message on John 3:1-15.

John: He Must Increase

Scripture Text: John 3:22-30

In this weeks text we return to John the Baptist who we spent time with in chapter one.  John, the gospel writer, seems to be offering us a contract between John the Baptist and Nicodemus who we looked at last week.  In this weeks teaching we ask the question where does your joy come from?  For John the Baptist it comes from Christ.  But can we really have that kind of joy even when things are not going well?  Pastor Peter shares his own struggles in that arena this week but also offers some hope and direction for how to return to that true source of real joy every single day.
