Expository Sermons On Johns Gospel Volume 3 PDF Download

"Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe." John wrote his gospel to give the world something in which to believe. In John 20:30, he says "Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples that are not written in this book." He further explains in 21:25 that he estimates that if everything Jesus did were recorded that all the books in all the libraries in the world couldn't hold what would be written. So, why did John include these things in these 21 chapters? The key is the word he uses "signs". John picked events, actions, miraculous and mundane, things that together would show us, give us a sign, a token, a revelation, in which we can place the full weight of our trust, the word we use is faith. And faith in Jesus, results in salvation and reconciliation with God. To all who receive him, he gave the right to become the children of God, to those who believe in his name, John 1:12. So, how are we going to make that shift in faith, under the power and prompting of the Holy Spirit? John 20:31 these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.My sermons in John's gospel are collected in three volumes. "Written in Flesh" introduces the Word who became flesh and dwelt among us and by his very presence called us to understand that God had come to make us new and make us right, chapters 1-3. Beginning in chapter 4 continuing through chapter 12, we see his public ministry, "That You May Believe". Then finally, beginning in chapter 13 through the end, we have book 3 as Jesus is crucified, resurrected, and commissions us, "That You May Have Life". I pray that these books will inspire you to know the Person, Potential, and the Purpose of the Son of God, the force behind all of life, come among us, to bring us to God.
