  • More on the Bodily Resurrection of the Dead (John 5:28-30, Part B)
    Jesus spoke in John 5 about the physical resurrection of the dead (bodies
    coming out of the graves). This was an extremely divisive subject among the
    Jews. Jesus and Paul maintained that it was plainly taught in the Old
    Testament; but where? Here we answer that question and continue a deep
    discussion on the resurrection begun in the previous message. This is a
    lesson that illustrates God’s power, challenges our faith, and reveals the
    importance of our bodies (and what we do with them).

  • Jesus, our Judge; and the Resurrection of the Dead (John 5:18-30)
    In John 5 Jesus’ enemies accused him of “working” on the Sabbath in healing
    a paralyzed man. In His response, Jesus “doubles down” and puts himself on
    the same level as God. Jesus also tells his opponents that the Father has
    committed to Him, the Son, the role of judging all men. In this lesson, we
    take a look at an aspect of Jesus many prefer to avoid: Jesus, the great
    Judge of all men on the Last Day. This carries important implications for
    several areas of our lives. Here Jesus also introduces teaching on the
    resurrection of the dead: considered a foundational teaching in the early
    church, yet commonly misunderstood among Christians today.

  • Signs and Wonders (John 4:46-5:17)
    In John 4 and 5, and throughout the New Testament, we read about Jesus, the
    apostles and others performing miracles, healings, and signs.  These can
    easily be passed over and dismissed.  Yet, why did Jesus (and others)
    perform miracles and signs?  What are we to learn from these miracles?  If
    someone were to work signs and wonders today, would that be a clear sign
    that God was behind what they were doing?  We will seek to answer these and
    other questions through the stories of the healing of the nobleman's son
    (John 4) and the paralyzed man at the pool (John 5).

  • Encounter with a Samaritan Woman at the Well (John 4:1-45)
    In John 4 Jesus encounters a Samaritan woman at Jacob's well and has a
    noteworthy discussion with her. This passage has often been used to depict
    Jesus as the Great Women's Liberator. But, is this really what this passage
    teaches us? We will dig into the history of the Samaritans and their
    relationship with the Jews to gain insight into the liberation Jesus offers
    to all people of all the nations. We are also introduced to "living water",
    and called higher as we learn of Jesus' food: to do the will of the
    Father.

  • The Son of Man Must Be Lifted Up (John 3:13-36)
    This passage of Scripture contains perhaps the most famous verse in the
    Bible: John 3:16. We look at this verse in its context, which not only
    shows how badly the verse is twisted and misunderstood by so many today but
    also reveals a message and means of salvation that will be hated by the
    world. It was for this message, which includes repentance from sin and
    Jesus as the only means to salvation, that Jesus was murdered. Will we, as
    Jesus' followers, be willing to proclaim the same message, with similar
    results? The lesson concludes with John the Baptist's example of humility
    as a spiritual leader, an upward call to us all as we strive to carry out
    God's work during our short time here on earth.
