John

Who is the Holy Spirit – He is the Spirit of Truth

John 14:17, The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth. As Christians, the Holy Spirit resides in us to comfort us, to guide us, and to be the Spirit of Truth in our lives. The Holy Spirit enables us to discern what is true and what is not.

God's Truth Sanctifies and Gives Us a Sense of Purpose

John 17:17. Only through God's Word and truth can we have a sense of purpose in life. God's truth has the power to sanctify us and to set us aside for God's purpose. John 17:17 says, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth”. In this scripture, Jesus is interceding for us to God to sanctify us. It is a true blessing to be sanctified and set aside for God's use.

God Gives Us Knowledge That He Can See the Future to Gain Our Trust and Faith

John 16:4. God can see into the future. It is important to Him that we know and have faith that he can see the future. This knowledge that what God says about the future is true becomes the essence of our faith. If we read in the Bible that God promised something and then it becomes true, then this becomes the evidence for our faith in God.

Biblical Advice and Commentary on John 3

Summary of John 3. Jesus explains to Nicodemus what it is to be born again. We must believe in Jesus to receive eternal life. Jesus says that "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Jesus says that he is the light that has come into the world.

Biblical Advice and Commentary on John 15

Summary of John 15. Jesus tell us that He is the true vine. He tells us to abide in Him and He will abide in us. If He abides in us, we can ask what we will and it shall be done. Keep His commandments, and we shall abide in His love. His commandment is to love one another. He that hates Jesus also hates God.

Biblical Advice and Commentary on John 11

Summary of John 11. Mary and Martha tell Jesus that Lazarus is sick. Jesus tells them that this sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God. After two days, Jesus said "Let us go into Judaea again" to awake Lazarus out of sleep. When they arrived Lazarus had lain in the grave four days already.

Biblical Advice and Commentary on John 8

Summary of John 8. Jesus convicts the consciences of the people when he says, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.". He then forgives the adulteress. Then Jesus goes on to testify that He is the light unto the world that speaks the truth of His Father. The truth shall make you free.

Work Success Comes With Seeking Eternal Things

John 6:27. Most of us think of work success in terms of salary increase, promotion, and recognition. From a Biblical perspective God does want to see us blessed materially, but He desires for us to focus on spiritual things first. True work success is measured in the eternal things of God.

Washing of Feet - Example of a Simple Good Work That Changed Lives

John 13:14. Even Jesus’ simplest acts were life-changing. The washing of feet is an example of good works that displayed God’s love for us (John 13:14, “If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet”). By this simple act, Jesus corrected His disciples thinking about personal relationships.

Jesus, The One Way

John 14:6. Jesus was a God-man that walked on this Earth. He offers us salvation through His death and resurrection on the cross to whoever will believe in Him. This is why Jesus is the one way for all of us. He shows us by His life on Earth how to live. Through His death he took the punishment for our sin nature, our disobedience against God.

The Birth Of A Born Again Christian

John 5:24. A person becomes a born again Christian when they accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. You accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior by hearing His word and accepting that you are a sinner, and you have been disobedient of God. As sinners we need salvation to save us from God’s wrath toward our sin and disobedience of Him.

We Have Unbelief In God If We Continue In Sin

John 16:8. If we sin, we have no belief in God's word. We have unbelief in God if we do not believe that Jesus died for our sins and gave us power over sin. We have unbelief if we do not believe that God is a righteous God that will punish sin. Sin is evidence to God that you do not know Him or believe in Him.

Is There A God If We Do Not Know Him?

John 1:10. Just because we do not know God does not mean He does not exist. It is easy to believe the world is round or that our world revolves around the sun. We believe it because scientists have been able to measure and observe the Earth. With God, He is outside our five senses. He operates outside of our natural realm. We cannot know Him like we know material objects.

No One Can Blot Out God's Truth

John 7:7. The only answer to our human situation and our sin nature is Jesus. God is a righteous God that punishes sin with death and destruction. Because God loves us so, Jesus' act on the cross took on our punishment for our sin so that we could be saved. All we need to do is accept Jesus as our Savior. This is the only answer to God's righteousness.

God's Miracles Reinforce Our Faith

John 2:11. God's miracles are supernatural acts that happen in the natural world. God's miracles provide us evidence that God exists. God is a supernatural person. God does not just operate within our five senses.
