Sermons on John

The Gift of the Spirit

This is the third part of a sermon series on the Trinity. We examine 6 different passages in Jesus’ words in John 14-16 to understand the nature and work of the Holy Spirit. We see that the Spirit is another Helper, presently indwelling; the truth Teacher, eternally proceeding; and the great Reprover, constantly testifying. The Holy Spirit is confused today and what we must understand that where the Spirit is present, Christ is exalted and the gospel is magnified. May…

The Son From the Father

This is the second part of a sermon series on the Trinity. This sermon examines John 1:14 and the phrase “the only Son from the Father” or “the only begotten from the Father.” We explore the doctrine of the eternal generation of the Son considering why this makes known the unity and the relationship of Father and Son in God. Finally, this sermon considers three practical applications with exhortations considering this doctrine. Passage: John 1:14

The Word With God

This is the first part of a sermon series on the Trinity. We are confronted with the mystery of God that is incomparable to anything else. In John 1:1 we examine an incredible statement that gives us insight into the nature of God before the world was. We see in this one verse revelation of the unity and plurality that is God. Here is an opportunity for us to worship and know God through his perfect revelation in Jesus Christ.…

Four Evidences for the Resurrection

We consider the resurrection account in John 20 and four evidences that testify to Jesus’ physical resurrection. “These are written so that we may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:31). Passage: John 20:1-10

Life: Knowing Christ

* We apologize, the audio quality on this recording is poor. With so much focus today on life and preserving life, we do well to ask, “What is life?” Is life about quantity or quality? We examine John 17:3 where it says that eternal life is knowing God and his Son, Jesus Christ. In considering this phrase we find the key to abundant and eternal life!

The Foundation of Freedom

Where Christianity has spread, liberty has followed. This sermon considers the foundations of liberty: God as Creator, Law as Protector, and Christ as Deliverer. Here is a call to see one of the wonderful fruits of the gospel of Jesus Christ. To be sure, liberty or freedom is not the gospel, but it is an overflow of life in Christ. Here is a call to see the foundation of true liberty and find true and lasting freedom in Christ.

The Light of the World

Jesus is the light of the world and his light is still shining in this world through his body, the church. We reflect on what it means to be a light in the darkness of this world. May the church rise up and shine the light and be that city on a hill.

What’s So Good About Good Friday?

Pastor Tim speaks to the reason why “Good Friday” is good! Whether you know little or much about Jesus and Christianity, this is an excellent look at the biggest event in history. There is no event that has changed our world more than the death of Christ. We start at John’s declaration that Jesus is the lamb of God. Then we follow the historical narrative to understand God’s past actions in helping us see Jesus as the long awaiting Savior…

Response to the Resurrection

Thomas went from skeptic to martyr for the faith. His eye-witness evidence, along with the rest of the apostles gives us confidence in the reality of the resurrection. Faith is not believing something contrary to the evidence. In fact, to disbelieve in the resurrection is to believe contrary to all the evidence. Christ’s death and resurrection was a publicly witnessed historical event. This gives us great confidence to live our lives, entrusting them to Christ in all things.

The Trinity: Part 3

We finish the rest of the prologue of John’s gospel. We look at 9 characteristics or descriptions of the living Word, the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Trinity: Part 2

We take a detailed look at the first verse of John’s gospel. What we see clearly is that both heresy and contradiction are avoided by the precise use of language that helps us understand who God is and who Jesus is.
