This Sunday, Pastor continues his series in John and picks up in John 8:12: "Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'” Jesus said these words not to make some abstract metaphor, but an attestation as to who he is as the one who fulfills Old Testament revelation and the Feast of Tabernacles.

This Sunday, Pastor Martin is preaching on John 7:53-8:11. This is the famous story of the “Woman Caught in Adultery.” The story is in brackets in many modern translations. Pastor explains why and offers reasons for preaching this passage. The story of the Woman Caught in Adultery is a powerful testament to abundance of Jesus’s grace to unworthy sinners.

This Sunday’s sermon will look at the remaining verses of John 7. The text points to divisions among the Jewish people over Jesus. As disciples of Christ, we still see divisions today. We should expect them. They existed when Jesus walked on earth. Pastor's sermon from John 7:40–52 calls us to take up our cross and follow Jesus, even when that confession means that we, like our Savior, are divided from others.

This Sunday, we begin the seventh chapter of John. The events in this chapter occur about six months after the events in John 6, before the Feast of Booths. The Jewish hostility to Jesus continues to increase. The various responses to Jesus confront us again with our own response to the Lord.

In the afternoon service, Pastor continues his series through 1 Corinthians and this message looks at verses 20-22 of chapter 14.

In the message this Sunday, John directs our attention to the varied responses of the Jews to Christ. Jesus must confront both popular ideas about the coming Messiah and the Jewish leaders' hostile aggression toward him. Each interaction between Jesus and the Jews is loaded with irony. We must weigh for ourselves: is this man the Christ? Amidst this, Jesus speaks a dire warning. If we reject him, we reject the one who sent him. So men reject Christ at their peril.

Pastor is back in the Gospel of John and his sermon this morning is from Jesus’s explanation of the origin of his teaching during the Feast of Booths. As Jesus speaks of where his teaching comes from, he draws strong contrasts between his own teaching and that of the Jewish leaders. The passage impresses us with the excellence of Jesus’s authority.

This Sunday morning, Pastor’s message is centered on Christ’s sacrifice as the final Priest as we partake of the Lord’s Supper afterwards.

In Pastor's sermon last Sunday, we saw several so-called “disciples” leave Jesus. They objected to the words of Jesus. As John 6 comes to a conclusion, Jesus tests the disciples. If last week was about fake disciples, this week's message is about true disciples.

The message this Sunday considers a great turning point in Jesus’s ministry. Jesus’s words fall on some of those present as too difficult to believe, and they end up turning away from Jesus. This is surprising turn, because the people who turn away were among Jesus’s disciples. Evidently not. This text of Scripture, by exposing the false faith of some so-called “disciples,” demonstrates the positive qualities of true faith and asks us to test our own discipleship under Jesus Christ.
