Jesus teaches on love and sacrifical servant leadership. We begin to see the purpose of all things in the glory of God. Jesus comforts his disciples with a teaching on the end, the Holy Spirit, and the resurrection.

Different responses to Jesus. Reasons for the cross, and for the rejection of it. A prophecy fulfilled in all 4 gospels.

Jesus is the Resurrection and the life, and through his death is the end of death. Christ's death is the death of death as smart theologians say. This should bring you comfort. We see Jesus' emotions which remind us how he sympathizes with us. Hebrews 4:14-16

A story of genuine gospel transformation can't be denied by anyone! Although many will try they do so unreasonably. Jesus is our good shepherd and only his elect will hear his voice and follow him out. Jesus grace is irresistible to those who already belong to him since the foundation of the world. He will never let his sheep go, but they will persevere to the end if they have been called.

Psalm 50 - Instruction and motivation to please God

Psalm 51 - Prayer of Repentance

Psalm 52 - Jesus is Better

Psalm 53 - parallel to Psalm 14, men are sinners

Psalm 54 - How to ask for help

Psalm 55 - A prayer for the restless

Jesus reveals hypocrisy. Pharisees didn't think their sin was as bad as others.

Jesus proves who he is and why his testimony about himself is valid.

Jesus clearly teaches who he is, who they are and what someone must do to have eternal life.

John 7 is about a rising hatred for Jesus Christ. We see his teaching amids doubt and hostility. We see 5 justifications for his ministry and 5 responses to the Savior that are still relevant today.

All about Salvation

Feeding 5,000 and walking on water sets up some foundational spiritual truths. Salvation is about belief and some don't believe, not because they won't, but because they can't because the Father has not drawn them.

Jesus is master of time and disease. He is equal to God and proves that over and over. 4 things testify to the deity of Christ: John the Baptist, His works, the Father, and scripture. There is only one thing holding the pharisees back (and many today) from salvation, and that is living for the temporary glory of men rather then living for the eternal glory of God.

The gospel of Jesus is for everyone. From the religious ruler (Nicodemus) to the Samaritan woman (ch. 4). He shows the need to believe and that belief involves obedience.
