2 Corinthians

• 19:27John 1

  And you have a savior who had wealth and became poor. Let's just kind of work through this really quick, this odd, this oddity of the gospel. The Bible says that he was rich. That is pre-incarnate Jesus. That is, as John 1 would say, that in Christ, the fullness of deity dwells. Jesus did not come to earth because he needed something. He actually came to earth because he had everything.

2 Corinthians

• 25:19John 1

  who is this king of glory? The Lord, strong and mighty. The disciples knew, Matthew 16, that one day Jesus will come back in the glory of his father. John chapter 1, they knew that the word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only son from the father. So on Mount Sinai, God protected his people from his glory because fallen

Asking for a Friend

• 20:52John 1

  And then in John 14, John just gets right to the point in verse 14. John 1, 14. Talks about this incarnation. He says, right here in verse 14. He says, the word, that's Jesus. The word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only son from the father, full of grace and truth. Now look at verse 18. We're going to look at this also. No one has ever seen God.

Jeremiah

• 28:37John 1

  Jesus in my place. What? I'm not getting this. What does John 1 say? In the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God. The Word was God. And? And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. The light went off. Jesus in my place. Jesus in place of me.

The Epistles of John

• 4:23John 1:9

  That he would be exalted even in death. That we might have eternal life. So, John 3. 3 John 1. 9 through some verses. It gets confusing because John doesn't really have a chapter. 3 John. It's just 3 John. But turn to chapter 1, verse 9 through 12. He says,

Asking for a Friend

• 24:28John 1

  Find your own way. Find your own path. But keep. Striving. Up. Actually. Christianity. Says. That God. Came down. It's the inverse. Of what religion. Says. John 1. Tells us the story. In the beginning. Where was with God. The word was God. Where was with God. And then it says. The word became flesh. And dwelt. Among.

• 24:43John 1:14

  Among. Us. In John 1. 14. Christianity. Is a story of God. Coming down. Not us. Going up. The eternal God. Did not wait for us. To climb a ladder. Not. Jacob's ladder. Or Josh's ladder. Or Frank's ladder. It was God. Coming down. To us. In flesh. Walking. Our dusty roads. Carrying. Our sorrows. As Isaiah says. Dying.

Savior

• 24:42John 1:1

  …over and over, this is the drumbeat of the gospel of John, that there is one person worth building your life on and it is not you. The one person for us to build our life on that we see in the very beginning of John, John chapter one, verse one. In the beginning was the word. That word being capitalized, the word was with God. The word was God.

• 15:04John 1:14

  And sometimes I wonder if, if we really understand the gravity of that truth. And I know you might, you might be thinking, well, Jared, you're just reading about the Israelites. You're just reading about the Old Testament. Well, but what about me? And the story continues as you, as you keep reading your Bible and you get to the New Testament. You get to John chapter 1, verse 14. That says that the word became flesh and dwelt among us.

Christmas Playlist

  God, I believe so that I will understand. But what if I told you this is not the greatest miracle that happens at Christmas? You say, there's a greater miracle than the virgin conception. Yes, turn with me in John chapter 1, 14. So John is the next book to my right, to your left.

• 19:51John 1

  So John is the next book to my right, to your left. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. John 1, 14. There's the impossibility of the virgin birth. Really, it's the virgin conception is the better wording there. And then John says, I'll one-up you. Do you understand what's going on here?

Christmas is...

• 15:12John 1:14

  The Apostle John describes it this way in John 1.14. The Word, that is Jesus, became flesh and dwelt among us. Now dwelt is again a highly symbolic word. It's the word for tabernacle. It means Jesus pitched his tent among us. He tabernacled among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. So by taking on flesh, the second person of the Trinity took up residence in this world.

The Mind of a Disciple

• 3:35John 1

  We're going to look in the life of Philip and I believe it's a trait that encompasses the mind of every disciple not simply in the New Testament but those who follow him today and that's the virtue of availability The virtue of availability so I have called Philip the disciple the available disciple So if you had your Bibles join me in the book of John chapter 1 today As you turn there I want to tell you this story

The Mind of a Disciple

• 12:46John 1

  And after Jesus died, John would begin to write. As he would go on to write five books that we have in the New Testament, he would write his Gospels. He would write three letters and then he would write the book of Revelation. So now, I want to take us all the way back to the very beginning of his Gospel in John chapter 1. John chapter 1. You see, John's Gospel is unlike the other three Gospels that we have in the New Testament.

The Mind of a Disciple

  Because as I preach on Nathaniel, I'm preaching on Bartholomew. Because most scholars would agree that the man you encounter in John chapter one is, in fact, Bartholomew, who John calls Nathaniel. So with that introduction, let's read John chapter one together. John chapter one. I'll be reading beginning in verse 43. If you don't have a Bible, feel free to use the Pew Bible in front of you.

The Mind of a Disciple

• 4:28John 1

  We have Simon, and we'll see later why he overshadows Andrew. We have Andrew, then James, and John. Andrew only appears in five episodes in Scripture. In the book of John, chapter 1, we see him leaving John the baptizer and following Jesus, when John says, look, the Lamb of God. We see him later on leaving his nets and following Jesus. That's the call. We see him in Mark 13 asking about the…

• 5:54John 1

  or he is seeking others that they might seek Jesus Christ. So today's message about Andrew is called Andrew the Seeker. Andrew the Seeker. So let's read John, the Gospel of John, chapter 1, beginning in verse 35. And what we're going to read, there's Andrew and another disciple leaving John the Baptist for Jesus. Now, the other disciple is never named, but his name is John.

Who's Your King

• 8:06John 1

  This is not the first or the last time that God's grace and his plan challenges our natural abilities to comprehend, is it? Think about the New Testament. When Philip runs to his brother and says, I have found the Messiah, but he's from Nazareth. And in John 1, 46, Nathanael says, can anything good come from Nazareth? See, Nathanael had a small view of God's majesty.

This is Church

• 29:48John 1

  John 1 verse 13, growing into maturity with a stature that is measured not by my statue of maturity, but by Christ's statue of maturity. So when you serve, you grow into maturity. So Jesus, again, causes us to live into this upside-down kingdom. Because some of us think that we have to mature in faith before we can serve. And Jesus reminds his church, no, it is when you serve that he matures us.

Dear Church

• 13:08John 1

  We have in the fourth gospel, the gospel of John. John specifically telling us, not only did the star point you to Jesus, but Jesus is that light himself. So turn with me to John, chapter 1, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John. Sometimes we're simple-minded and we miss it the first time. God is saying, church, it's not about the star. You can put one up. When I was in New Orleans, I'll filibuster as you find your book of the Bible.

• 14:13John 1

  …promised a star, but this is not how it happens. But my prayer was, Lord, may this star on the top of this palm tree draw someone to the true light of Jesus Christ. But maybe we're simple and we missed a star. Well, John 1 clearly says it this way. He says, in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Verse 4. He said, in Him, that's Jesus, in Him was life, and that life was the light of men.

From Death to Life

• 33:49John 1

  exposed by the light is made visible for what makes everything visible is light you know I love the passage in John chapter 1 where it talks about the word became flesh and dwelt among us it said in him was life and the life was the light of men and the light shone in the darkness and the darkness comprehended it not or literally the darkness could not overcome the light there

The Name

• 7:52John 1:1

  And then we get to John, the black sheep of the family. John, out of nowhere, doesn't call Jesus Jesus until verse 17. Doesn't call him Christ. But he begins here in John 1.1 with a word that is not used. It's a name not used for Jesus anywhere else in Scripture. It's a unique name that John uses. So go ahead and join me in the book of John, the Gospel of John. John 1.1.

• 8:09John 1:1

  John 1.1. I say the Gospel of John starts off like a jet leaving an aircraft carrier. There's no slow descent. He just goes. John, so if you have your Bible, if you're there, say word up. Okay, most of you are there. John 1.1. In the beginning was the Word. And the Word was with God. And the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.

The JESUS Story

  The Look, the Lamb, and the Invitation. Let's read John 1, beginning at verse 29. I'm reading from the Christian Standard Bible today. The Book of John. This is the Gospel of John. This is another John. The next day, in verse 29, John, the Baptist, saw Jesus coming towards him, and he said, Here is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.

The JESUS Story

• 5:13John 1

  Even if you wrote it down. Lord, to you be the glory and the honor we pray. Amen. Okay, John 1, verse 1. Here we go. In the beginning was the word. And the word was with God. And the word was God. He was with God in the beginning. All things were created through Jesus. That's him. And apart from him, not one thing was created that has been created. In him was life.

Isaiah

• 7:09John 1

  And what we find through Isaiah 53 is that really there's nothing about Jesus that you would say, ooh, he looks awesome. I want to follow that guy. Or, wow, he was born in the palace. Surely he is nobility. Quite the opposite. Jesus was born in a stall, in a place that has no room in the end. So uncommon, so common was the birth of Christ that even one of his first disciples, Nathanael in John 1, says,

Isaiah

• 21:43John 1

  That's what God's going to do. And John the Baptist picks up on this language 700 years later. In John 1, he says this. John takes this language upon himself and he says, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, making straight the way of the Lord, just as Isaiah the prophet said." Where does that come from? Right…

• 18:19John 1

  A baby is a boy and a youth and a man. They're always human, but his outer form changes all the time. So when Paul is saying that Jesus is in the form of God, he is saying that he is 100% God. And we see God at work in the Trinity throughout Scripture. We see in Genesis 1, it says, Let us make man in our likeness and in our image. And in John 1, it says, In the beginning was the Word, which is Jesus,

• 12:17John 1

  Jesus says that he is the light. John 1, 5, light shines in darkness. John chapter 3, men love darkness. That's us. Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night. Jesus said, he who loves me shall not walk in darkness. Jesus says that he who believes in me should not abide in darkness. There's a very clear and powerful message in Scripture. Men love darkness.

And sin, when it is fully grown, brings forth death. The desire, when it has conceived, gives birth to sin. And sin, when it is fully grown, brings forth death.
