John 16:1-16:15 | What could be better than having Jesus on earth right now? Jesus tells us that having the Holy Spirit is better! The Holy Spirit is given to the church in order to bring us through suffering, help us in evangelism and lead us into the truth.

John 15:18-15:27 | Though followers of Jesus will experience opposition in the world, Jesus has promised that the Holy Spirit? the Spirit of Truth? will bear witness along with us.

John 12:20-12:50 | The Good News of Jesus is that those who confess Him as their King and believe in His finished work on the cross are forgiven of their sin and set free from condemnation and shame. This Gospel is such Good News that it demands that we live for God's glory and service as Jesus did. Have you been saved by God's grace? Are you living for God's glory? And are you a fully devoted follower of Jesus, in service for The King?
