In John 19:7-15 the Jews have backed Pilate into a corner at this point. It is a matter of Jesus claiming to be King and there can be only one King in Rome. Pilate can either save his soul or his life. If He turns Jesus loose, he loses his life, if He crucifies...

In John 18:28-30 we see the Jews just assume that Pilate will kill this ”Man” Jesus that they want killed because of envy.  Pilate lets them know real quick that it isn’t going to be that simple, but asks what is He accused of? They come up with this general idea...

After Jesus finishes praying, He goes with His disciples to the garden. John leaves out the fact that Jesus prays again and sweats great drops of blood and His disciples sleep when they should have been praying also. John does this because he is focusing us on the...

What does the Bible do for you? What does the Bible offer you? What resources does it bring to you? First of all, it's the source of truth. John 17:17 says, "Thy word is truth." It's the truth about life, death, time, eternity. The truth about heaven and hell, the...

Jesus tells them in John 16:14-22 another purpose of the Holy Spirit is to Glorify Him by declaring His Word to them. He then begins to tell them in a little while they will not see Him and then again in a little while they will see Him. This totally confuses the...

In John 15:18-25 Jesus makes it very clear that if you have trusted Him as your Lord and Savior that the world will hate you because it hated and still hates Him. The people of the world love us if we live like they do in sin, but when we live for God they hate us...

In John 15:1-2 we will see that Jesus is telling us that He is the true source of our spiritual and physical life. Acts 17:28 "for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring.'  2Peter 1:3 as...

Jesus is the way to God because He is the truth from God and the life from God. He is the truth because He embodies God's supreme revelation (1:18; 5:19; 8:29). John 1:18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He...

In John 13:27-35 we see that Jesus has given Judas the bread and at that point, the devil enters Judas.  Judas willingly invited the devil into his life and it cost him all of eternity in hell.  Jesus tells him to go ahead and betray Him since that is what Judas...

In John 13:1-10 we will see Jesus humbling Himself and showing us the attitude of Servant Leadership.  This is a concept that is shown by Jesus the whole time He is here on earth.  He was humble in the fact that the God who created everything came to earth to die...

We will see in this passage that Jesus had done many signs (miracles with a message) yet they would not believe in Him.  The theme of the whole book John 20:30-31 is that Jesus is God in human flesh because He is God over time, over death, over distance, over...

In John 12:9-18 we see that many of the Jews came to see Him and also Lazarus because he was no longer dead, but alive and well. The chief priests not only want to kill him, but Lazarus also.  When Jesus comes riding into town on a donkey’s colt as Zechariah 9:9...
