 We are going through the Gospel of John, and in chapter 15:18-20, Jesus says, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.

In John 10 we read about the people in the Temple pressing Jesus to tell them if he is the Messiah. Jesus replies that he has already told them and then lists the evidence that should help them in their struggle to believe. Currently, there is a trend to “deconstruct faith” that often leads confused people to walk away from their religious beliefs. Like a bowling ball striking down all the bowling...

In John 8 we read how Jesus showed grace and disarmed hypocrites for a woman caught in a shameful sin. Our evil adversary tempts us to give into sin, tries to push us away from abiding in Christ by his accusations, and tries to paralyze our Christian walk and works through our deep regret. This story is amazing and encouraging, but Bible scholars reveal that it might not be part of the original Go...

Jesus healed a blind man on the Sabbath and instead of celebrating that man’s healing, the Pharisees got angry at Jesus because He broke their Sabbath regulations and they also threw the formerly blind man out of the synagogue.

In John 6 the large crowd of people who spent the day seeing and hearing Jesus become hungry.
