Jn. 1:9-14. John Series 22: Jesus the Foreigner
2015/08/30
TMC English sermon.
John 1:9-14 describes Jesus as coming into the world but not welcomed by those to whom he came. On the outside, he was the same as his compatriots. But he was significantly different on the inside, and so was rejected. For we who have been spiritually reborn on the inside, Jesus models the importance of living as if we are foreigners with citizenship in heaven.
Jn. 13:18-30. John Series 21: Maximum Love (2)
2015/08/23

In John 13:18-30, Jesus demonstrates his love for all his disciples, even Judas his betrayer. Jesus prophetically teaches about his betrayal (18-20). Love teaches. And then he acts on that teaching by lovingly initiating the betrayal itself (21-30). Love acts. This is maximum love!
We please God by learning to teach about the love of Jesus Christ, and then acting on that teaching.

2015/08/09
TMC English sermon.
John 12 depicts two possible responses to Jesus Christ. We can choose to follow him (1-36) or reject him (37-50). Today we focus on rejecting Jesus. We reject Jesus when we are blinded by our sin (12:38-41) and when we love human affirmation rather than praise from God (12:42-43). Consequences follow (12:44-49). But choosing to believe and follow Jesus leads to eternal life (12:50)!
Jn. 12:1-36. John Series 18: Following Jesus
2015/07/19
TMC English sermon.
John 12 depicts two possible responses to Jesus Christ: follow him (1-36) or reject him (37-50). This sermon focuses on the first response. When we honor Jesus, face danger for Jesus, choose Jesus, and join the family of the crucified Jesus, we are following Jesus. Jn. 12:1-36, especially v.26.

2015/07/12
