Signs That Call for Faith John 20:30-31

Today in Worship…we wrap up our journey through John’s Gospel by ending where we began. In John 20:30-31, the disciple whom Jesus loved offers the reason for his book, that the signs contained therein were given that we might believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God and by believing we may have eternal life. This morning we will be reminded once again of the significance of Jesus’ work in John and to what those signs pointed. The call of this book is to place one’s absolute trust in Jesus.

John 21:15-19, Lives of Restoration

Today in Worship…we will be looking at the text of John 21:15-19. Following from last week, we see Jesus’ last moments on earth being poured into his disciples. This passage focuses specifically on Jesus’ restoration and reinstatement of Peter as an Apostle and shepherd of the sheep. We see the heart of the Gospel in Jesus’ restoring Peter to the office of Apostle and also among the community of disciples. Peter is restored, recommissioned, and charged to follow Christ.

John 21: 1-14 Jesus' Provision for the Church

   In this message, we wind down Jesus’ time on earth, as he meets the disciples on the shores of the Sea of Galilee. In John 21:1-14 Peter and many of the other disciples spend a night of fruitless fishing. Jesus’ words of instruction supply them with a bountiful catch. In this final chapter we see the twofold appendix to John’s Gospel, highlighting Jesus call to be fishers of men and shepherds to the sheep. This commission of evangelism and discipleship explain how the resurrection of Christ is the ongoing story of the Church.

John 20:19-23 Peace Be With You

Today in Worship…Christ risen on the first day of the week, having commissioned Mary Magdalene, He then speaks with the disciples who are hiding in fear for their lives. His first words to them are that of peace and then He commissions them to go, empowered by the Holy Spirit, with a message of forgiveness. In John 20:19-23, the words to the disciples ring true for us, having the peace of Christ pronounced to us, the resurrected Christ sends us out telling others of His forgiving grace.

John 20:1-18 Running Away To Home

Today in Worship… Today, we celebrate our risen Savior, Jesus Christ, as we hear from John 20:1-18. The account of the empty tomb and Jesus’ gentle words of acceptance spoken to Mary comforts us. As God the Father raised His Son from the dead, He pours out His affection on us, pursuing us as His children.

John 18:28-40;19:1-16 Pilate's Trial

Today in Worship… we encounter Jesus not in Triumphal Entry, as may be expected on Palm Sunday. Instead, as we walk through John’s Gospel, we are in John 18:28-19:16, as Jesus stands before Pilate. Here the one on whom judgment falls, becomes the Judge. Jesus’ authority is pronounced while the religious and state authority is found wanting. This passage gives us great hope to engage our world, knowing that Christ’s kingdom is not of this world. We behold the man (19:5) and king (19:14) who will be judged for us, all the while, we, like the crowds, clamor for another one to rule over us.

John 18:15-18;25-27 The Rooster's Crow

Today in Worship… we remain in the scene of the Jesus trials before Annas and Caiaphas, but instead of focusing on the trial John bounces from the trial scene to the courtyard scene with Peter.  Jesus stands trial with strength and courage while Peter, no longer with sword in hand, stands trial with fear and denial.  These scenes are reminders that we are called to bear witness of Jesus’ life, death and resurrection, but even more that Jesus stands as our only security in this life and the next because we are weak, lured by the culture, and not the Hero of our story.

John 18: 12-14, 19-24, The Bound Sacrifice

Today in Worship…we come to Christ’s Passion as He is arrested and interrogated by Annas, the prior High Priest. John recalls Caiaphas’ claim in John 11, that an exchange of one life for many is necessary.  In John 18:12-14, 19-25 we see how Jesus, bound as a lamb to be slain, stands firm for His disciples, ready to be sacrificed for us.
