The message of the healing of the man at the pool of Bethesda is that only God's grace can change us and give us life. Jesus healed this man totally by grace. Jesus sought to woo this man to place faith in Him as Savior. Just as this man could do nothing heal himself physically, he could do nothing to h...

Bottom line: Jesus grows our faith to believe in Him beyond the limitation of what we believe about Him. Jesus grew the Nobleman's faith from believing in something, to believing in something more, to believing in someone (i.e. Himself). He moved his faith from believing in the "do" of Jesus to the "who" of Jesus. This man became a believer in Jesus as Messiah. The thing the Nobleman most wanted c...

Bottom line: Faithful and fruitful servants will receive eternal and valuable reward. One day every believer will stand before Jesus, the righteous judge, to have our works revealed and examined. Our sin was forever judged on the cross. Our salvation is 100% because of Jesus' finished work of the cross. However, our works will be judged to determine reward. This judgment is known as the Judgment (...

Bottom line: Share Jesus with the lost because you care. Share the lost with Jesus in prayer. God works to put believers and non-believers in proximity to one another in the context of life so that the gospel message can be shared and received. Let's share His story. Let's share our story. Let's share what another's story can be. And let's share others in need with Jesus in prayer.

Bottom line: I serve Jesus because He served me.  Jesus saved us to serve. He motivates us with greatness to serve. And in faithfulness we choose to serve. When we choose to serve we grow. When we choose to serve we do something significant. When we choose to serve, we serve Jesus.

Bottom line: Our faithful listening leads to our fruitfulness increasing. In the parable of the sower, Jesus talks about a farmer who goes forth sowing seed. The thing that determined if the seed would bear fruit or not was the condition of the soil. He then correlates that spiritually to the seed of God’s Word and our willingness or unwillingness to listen, receive, and act on it. If we’re willin...

Bottom line: Joy results from the change made by Jesus.  The first miracle (changing water into wine) declared that Jesus came to change things. His mission is a mission of change.
