Studying the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings
We are doing an in depth study of the Gospel of John on Sunday mornings.

John's gospel is written intimatley from the perspective of one who considered himself to be Jesus' best friend as you could argue no one knew Him better. He lived a long life following Jesus from perhaps his teens into his 90s. It was a long life, but sometime difficult one often being persecuted for his faith. He was exiled to the island of Patmos later in his life where he was given wonderful visions of heaven and future events which he wrote about in the Book of Revelations. He is the only apostle to die of natural causes. His Gospel differs from the other three in that rather than telling a story in order, he hand picks events to prove a certain point. The point he emphasizes is that Jesus is the Son of God. His close relationship with Jesus empowers his words to have extra special meaning as an insider rather than one observing from the outside. He actually states the purpose for writing this account near the end in chapter 20.

"And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name."
John 20:30-31.

 

Studying the Book of Revelation Sunday Evenings
There is a reason Revelations is the last book in our Bible. Not only does the Book look forward to future events, but it also ties together many of the loose ends we find in the other 65 books of the Bible. To understand Revelations, we must have a good knowledge of those other 65 books. Many of the symbols, events, numbers, color references are nearly encountered previously in the word of God. My commentary refers to this book as the "Grand Central Station" of the Bible where all the "trains" of thought that run throughout the scriptures are brought together; as we will see on display shortly and John describes Jesus. Central themes such as the scarlet thread of redemption, the nation of Israel, the Gentile nations, the church, Satan, and the end times all are brought together. This truly makes the study of the Book one that can become as in depth as you would like it to be. You can dig as deep as you wish. For us, we will just dive in and see where the Spirit leads us.

Sunday evening at is a wonderful time of digging into God's Word. Also, we are usually blessed with a couple of Bluegrass gospel songs from Dick and Rita on Sunday evenings. Come join us!

 

Adult Bible Study on Wednesday Evenings

Arrested and Tried
John 18:1-26
Sunday Morning
Pastor Greg Isom

"Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Philippians 2:9-11

The Jesus we follow is the Lord of lords and the King of kings; no one is like Him and He has chosen us to be His children through the redemption found in the cross. At His return every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord; some in great rejoicing and some in great regret.

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."
I John 1:9

Notice the process; we must first realize we sinned and confess it to our Savior. If you are truly seeking the Lord, this is not easy to do because it is hard to admit our failures. He then forgives us and cleanses us (returns us to a state of acceptance) and moves forward. We must accept Him at this word and believe we are forgiven and move forward as a cleansed vessel again ready to be used by Him. We have the example of Peter to follow as he did in fact move past his failures and serve the Lord well.
