We are beginning a new study in the Gospel of John on Wednesday nights. We are looking forward to taking our time soaking in these living words about Jesus. John's gospel is unique, with its use of terms like life, light, and love. It is the gospel that teaches us that we must be born again. It tells us so much about who Jesus is. The very first verse speaks volumes.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
This is the foundation upon which John builds the testimony of Christ: that Jesus is nothing less than God Himself, come in the flesh. All else depends upon that fact. It's almost as if John wanted to do away with any foolish thought about a merely wise teacher immediately. Jesus is infinite, and He is eternally wise, good, loving and powerful. He is the light that shines in the darkness, and the darkness will never overcome it. How amazing to know the Light of the world! How incredible to be nourished by the living water and the bread of life! I hope you'll come join us every Wednesday night at 6:30 as we study together. Here are the notes from our first study: John 1.
