The Gospel of John Part 62 – John 17:9-19

Jn. 17:9-19 are the verses we are looking at in this study. Jesus is praying for the disciples. Though He is touching on many different subjects in these few verses what Jesus is praying is of tremendous value for Christians of all eras and nations. His prayer is moving towards the subject of sanctification, which is being set apart from the world to be set apart unto God. This is a message we are in desperate need of today.

So we will look at what it means to serve others through the various gifts that the Lord gives to His people.

A VISION BY GENERAL WILLIAM BOOTH   On one of my recent journeys, as I gazed from the coach window, I was led into a train of thought concerning the conditions of the multitudes around me.

We are beginning a new section in our continuing study on The Radical Jesus titled Radical Sacrifice. Today’s lesson will concentrate upon the eternal dimension of Christ’s sacrifice which will reveal another aspect of His tremendous love for mankind.

The Radical Jesus Part 21

Last week we began digging into the wonderful subject of divine compassion. The radical nature of Christ’s compassion towards the rebel human race is staggering and beyond comprehension. Yet we should seek to comprehend His compassion to the best of our ability. Last week’s study ended with a brief glimpse at how God’s compassion is interwoven into His omniscience (all-knowing). I will pick up where we left off last week to delve deeper in the correlation between God’s omniscience and compassion. You will be enlightened.

The Radical Jesus Part 12

In this week’s study we will dig a little deeper into the humility that defined the Radical Jesus.

In this lesson we will learn a little more about humility and why it is important for us to mature in this fruit of the Spirit through the grace of God.

Character and God’s Power Part 13

Love is today’s topic in our continuing study on Character and God’s Power. The quality of our character determines how we love. To word it a little differently, the quality of our love is a gauge to the condition of our character. In this lesson we will learn how love reveals not only our character, but our spiritual condition. People with godly character prove it by how they selflessly love others. Selfish expressions of love always reveal a corrupt character. So take a listen and learn how you can grow in Christ and the Spirit’s power to selflessly love God and others.

Character and God’s Power Part 12

Obedience to God is the topic of today’s podcast. This is probably the largest subject in the Bible and is of greater importance than most people think. Without obedience to God and His Word people will not make heaven their home. But in our culture that glorifies rebellion we can be blind to the beauty and joy found in obedience. Not just that, for obedience to be real it must be loving. We cannot love selflessly unless we obey those we claim to love. Listen, learn and take to heart the powerful lesson you will hear today.

The Audacity Series Part 8

In this final episode of The Audacity Series we will examine 1 Corinthians 13:11. This verse within the love chapter is all about spiritual maturity. When we think like a child we will act and love like a child. If we make the willful choice to spiritually grow up then we will begin thinking like spiritual adults which means we will begin loving like mature adults. Marriages fall apart because people refuse to grow up; churches suffer the ravages of strife because people refuse to grow up. Listen to this podcast and learn what it means to love like an authentic adult.
