Asking for a Friend

• 24:35John 14

  If the Bible is true, if you believe the Bible is true, that is what you believe. You must believe the gospel. Secondly, if the Bible is true, and again, we have enough evidence to believe it is by faith, then Jesus is the only way. You say, okay, well, show me that. Show me your work, pastor. I will. John 14.

Asking for a Friend

• 20:48John 14

  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.

• 23:57John 14

  …and you say, well, I'm still confused. You've not helped me at all. You've actually made it more difficult to understand, is God personal? Well, if that's you, if you're still confused, you're not alone. Because in John 14, and let's turn there, the disciples have spent three years with Jesus Christ and they're still confused. So for the slow learners in our midst, you're not alone. John 14, 6 is a verse that you might know well.

Asking for a Friend

• 6:12John 14

  Jesus is the word of Jesus Christ. And so may we pray and then we will look at John 14 together this morning. John 14. Let me pray. Father, forgive us when we think you are merely a path. Forgive us when we think that Jesus is merely a way or faith in Christ is the same as faith in man. Faith in Allah. Faith in self.

Asking for a Friend

• 24:36John 14

  Even the humblest corner of glory is a place of delight. Where will you go when you die in Christ? I don't know where it will be, but it will be with him. So I'm not worried about the place. I am treasuring the person. This is his promise. And then lastly for today. Jesus promises his disciples in John 14, 2. He gives us one more glimpse of today's heaven.

• 24:57John 14

  He gives us one more glimpse of today's heaven. Present heaven, if you will. He says, he says, boys, listen up. It's been a long three years and you've tried my patience. I've suffered long with you, as the King James would say. But he says this beautiful truth in John 14, 2. He says, in my father's house are many rooms. And I love that because what was Jesus' occupation? He was a carpenter.

Asking for a Friend

• 9:49John 14

  What Jesus tells us in John 14, 7, he said, if you know me, you know the Father. If you have given your life to Jesus Christ, if you have seen him in his glory by faith, you know the Father. So the first step to know the will of God is to know God himself. You will never know the will of God for your life if you are spiritually dead. and God desires that none perish but all have everlasting life.

You Asked For It (2024)

• 4:22John 14

  So by request, because you've asked it, today's message is entitled, Truth and Disinformation. Truth and Disinformation. If you have your Bibles with you, I hope you do. We're going to be looking at one verse today. One verse. John 14 verse 6. Truth and disinformation. Let's go to the Lord. Father, we thank you that we shepherd boys who are living a lie can find water for our parched souls.

• 16:56John 14:6

  Now if these are the problems, and we know that what we say and the lies that we believe and the truth that we follow have eternal consequences. How do we live for Jesus Christ in the midst of this propaganda machine? Well, we have in John 14:6. It's more likely a verse you don't even have to open. Because Jesus answers Thomas, who's asked, when you leave, how will we know where you're going?

The Mind of a Disciple

• 27:50John 14

  The last time you meet philip in the gospel of john We see him asking a question of the father in john chapter 14 And we see philip saying These words in john 14 8 Philip says lord Show us the father And that will be enough for us Jesus said to him Have I been among you all this time and you do not know me philip the one who has seen me has seen the father?

• 28:00John 14:8

  The last time you meet philip in the gospel of john We see him asking a question of the father in john chapter 14 And we see philip saying These words in john 14 8 Philip says lord Show us the father And that will be enough for us Jesus said to him Have I been among you all this time and you do not know me philip the one who has seen me has seen the father?

The Mind of a Disciple

• 12:03John 14

  However, we do find one verse in all of Scripture that bears his name, and that's John 14, verse 22. Written, in my opinion, by his uncle, John. And John is very careful to tell us who speaks. He calls him Judas. But, parenthesis, not the Iscariot.

• 13:00John 14:22

  feeling the weight of his earthly mission upon him. And so Thaddeus, who is also Labias, who is also Jude, who is also Judas, asked this question in John 14:22. Judas, John's like not Iscariot, said to Jesus, "Lord, how is it you are going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"

Solid Ground

• 7:20John 14

  That's the context of what we're about to read in John 14, verse 1. Jesus says to Peter, you're about to deny me. Don't let your heart be troubled. What? Jesus is speaking into the deepest worry of Peter's heart. Believe in God. Believe also in me. In my father's house, there are many rooms. If not, I would have told you. I am going away to prepare a place for you. If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come again.

• 10:25John 14

  So, in fact, the words of comfort uttered here in John 14 are in a moment of deep stress by Jesus Christ. So, if you're here and you say, well, I'm stressed to the max, you are not alone. Jesus himself went through difficult moments. So, let me remind you of this as we look at how God helps put us on the side of the ground. The presence of stress does not necessarily result from the lack of faith or disobedience.

Psalms

• 16:19John 14

  and it's certainly worth living for. So our belief in Christ should change the way that we live. Who can be a guest of the Lord is the one who hears the words of Jesus in John 14. If you love me, he says, you will keep my commands. And if you think that's burdensome, if you think those barriers are difficult, remember the words of the Messiah who says, take my yoke upon you,

Suitcase

• 12:54John 14

  No one's ever seen God. Well, Jesus says this in John 14. He says this. If you know me, that's Jesus, then you know my father. And from now on, you do know him and you have seen him. For those who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ, Jesus says to you, you know God because you know me. Think about that. We can know God. And because we can know God, we can know his will.

The JESUS Story

• 4:05John 14

  And I've watched other video-driven displays of the cross. And if that's you and you find it hard to talk about, you're not alone. Because the cross was a brutal instrument of execution. And if you find it difficult to think about the cross, you're not alone in that either. Remember in John 14. Jesus is telling his disciples, right? This is the inner circle. This is the VIP. He tells them, I am going back to the Father.

The JESUS Story

• 9:34John 14

  Whoever lives in me will never die. And whoever has already died will live again. Sixth I am statement, Jesus says in John 14, verse six, he says, I am the way. Thomas is asking, Lord, you say you're going back to the father, but we don't know. Show us the way. And Jesus says, I did. I am the way. I am the truth. I am the life. No man comes to…

The JESUS Story

• 27:02John 14

  The one who is the resurrection and the life. But there is more. Jesus says in John 14, this is in the midst of the final supper he will ever eat in his physical body. This is the same night that Jesus is about to be betrayed. This is the eve of his crucifixion. So the disciples can see the agitation in Jesus and they can tell he is upset and they can tell something is worrying him.

• 27:34John 14

  …tell he is upset and they can tell something is worrying him. And so Jesus tells them, I am about to go to the Father. And they ask him simply, would Jesus show us the way? We want to go where you are. Jesus says in John 14, verse 6, Jesus says to them, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will also know my Father.

Deep Roots

• 18:58John 14

  Because Jesus invites you into a deeper relationship to know him and be known by him. Why can that happen? Because Jesus didn't just open the door to God. He is God. So, John 14. We should have it on the screen if you don't want to turn there. John 14, 8. A man named Philip, one of the inner circle of Jesus, says this, Jesus, show us the Father and that's enough for us. Now, some of you are thinking,

Miracle in the Manger

• 13:10John 14

  And only Jesus Christ can give the world what it needs. Only Jesus Christ can make all things new. And bring new creation to that which is broken. So John 14 says, The Word, which is Jesus, The Word became flesh. And He dwelt among us. And we observed His glory. The glory as the one and only Son from the Father. Full of grace.

• 1:23John 14

  …the way. Some of you, I don't know who this was, who stacked the deck. But today we're going to look at the Holy Spirit. And so we're going to open the Word of God. If you have a Bible with you today, please join me in John 14. That will be our starting point. And then we will jump to the Old and the New Testament

• 3:14John 14

  that the Holy Spirit left this place and things went on as normal. We want the power and the presence of God in our life. And you say, Well, Pastor, that's a little uncomfortable. You asked. Not my fault. Right? So we're going to look at the Word of God and we're going to say, God, how do you work through us by your Spirit? John 14. Jesus speaking. He's important. And this is what He says about the Holy Spirit. John 14, verse 15.

B2Church

• 26:30John 14

  And I firmly believe that if anyone could build a perfect home, a physical home, it would be the master carpenter. Heaven is an immediate home and it is a physical home. But it is also a purposeful home. Jesus says that I, in John 14, verse 2, I have gone to prepare a place for you. Why would the Messiah remind us that he is going to prepare?

• 27:55John 14

  This is the power and the purpose of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Preparing the way of salvation and preparing our eternal home. But there's more. Heaven is a familial place or a familiar place. John 14, Jesus says, I will prepare a place for you. He says this also in verse 4, that you know the way. What does Jesus mean when he says that you know the way?

Missing Christmas

• 39:15John 14

  But he wants the wise men to think he does. I'm reminded by the scripture that our Savior says. John 14, 21 says, if anyone loves me, he will obey my commands. And if he loves me, he'll be loved by my Father. And I will love him and reveal myself to him. Maybe today, for the first time, you realize you've been worshiping…

Leviticus

• 22:40John 14

  What does Jesus say in John 14? The Savior says, peace I leave you. My peace I give to you. Have you heard that before? Leviticus chapter 26. Romans 5. Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. His name in Isaiah 9:6. His name is wonderful counselor, mighty God, eternal father, and prince of peace.

• 34:37John 14

  His Presence Is a Game Changer Jesus Reminds Us Of these Words John 14 Jesus Says If you Love me You Will Keep My Commands Sound Familiar God Empowers Us To Faithfulness Verse 16 Jesus Says I Will Ask The Father And He Will Give You Another Counselor The Holy Spirit To Be With You Forever How Long Is The Holy Spirit Going To Be With Us Forever

• 31:02John 14

  John 14, Jesus said, "If I go to prepare a place, I will come again and receive you." You see, remembering God's promises is like geocaching for the soul. I believe God gives us daily reminders of his grace. If you're not familiar with geocaching, you can get your GPS and you can go to sites and people have hid little trinkets and things around different locations in the world, in our community.

What is Church?

• 15:22John 14

  It is supernatural. In John 14, 27, Jesus says this, Peace I live with you, leave with you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives, but what? I give you differently. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. So if the peace that God gives is not of this world, then the joy that Christ gives is also not of this world. And so I just caution us in this way.

Advent 2016

• 14:12John 14

  And you cannot separate peace from Jesus. He is the Prince of Peace. Seek him. This is why Jesus says in John 14, 21, peace, I leave you. My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled or fearful. You see, when God the Father named his son the Prince of Peace, he was revealing his character. That is who Jesus is. Where Christ is, there is peace.

Proverbs

• 21:06John 14

  Father, hold us accountable to train, to dedicate this child for godliness. Train up a child in what? The way. Sound familiar? What does Jesus say in John 14, 6? He says, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father but through me, Jesus Christ says. It's no coincidence that the early Christians weren't called Christians. They were called followers of the way.

• 11:31John 14:18

  …Sunday, we should all consider how we can support the organizations that care for the kids that can't speak for themselves. Though we are not all called to adopt or even foster, we can all contribute in some way. John 14:18 says, "I will not leave you as orphans. I will come to you."
