  • John: Introduction And Eyewitness

    John: Introduction And Eyewitness
    Jun 11 2025

    John's introduction was all about this word - 'witness.'

    Christianity is rooted in history, and backed by eyewitnesses.

    In John 1, the author skips the greetings and goes straight to the heart of the matter: he and others saw, heard, and observed the Messiah. "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us," he declared.

    In today's study, we'll consider the historical facts that support our faith.

    Questions That We'll Answer:

    A) Why did John refer to Jesus as 'the Word?'

    B) In what way is Jesus also 'the light' that came into the world?

    C) What are the implications of Christ's incarnation to you and I?

    Speaker: Rev. Dr. Toby B. Holt

  • John: A Voice In The Wilderness

    John: A Voice In The Wilderness
    Jun 4 2025

    John the Baptist had one job.

    John came to prepare people to meet Jesus.

    Specifically, he would 'make straight the way of the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah had foretold.

    However, the people wouldn't listen.

    John would be a voice crying in the wilderness. He would be misunderstood, and eventually killed.

    And the same would happen to the Messiah.

    Questions That We'll Answer:

    A) Why was John 'baptizing' people? What kind of baptism was this?

    B) Why did John say 'behold the Lamb' when he saw Jesus approach?

    C) What's the difference between 'appeasement' and 'atonement?'

  • John: Turning Water Into Wine

    John: Turning Water Into Wine
    May 28 2025

    It wasn't just a miracle - it was a sign.

    In John 2, Jesus attended a wedding.

    And at this wedding He performed His first recorded miracle (turning water into wine).

    So, what was this miracle really about?

    As we'll see, it pointed forward to the cross - even if no one knew it at the time.

    Questions That We'll Answer:

    A) Why did Jesus tell Mary that His 'hour had not come?'

    B) In what way(s) did this miracle point forward to Calvary?

    C) How is John 2 a bookend with John 19?
