The Gospel of John - Part 6

Part 6 begins in Chapter 6:16-21. This is the miracle when Jesus walked on water. After feeding the 5000, Jesus goes off to pray and the disciples get into a boat and head for Capernaum. Jesus then comes to them in the night, walking on the water.

In the second half of the video, Jesus proclaims to the crowd that He is the Bread of Life. In verse 44, Jesus says, "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day."

Jesus then tells them that they must eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood in order to have life. This of course causes much grumbling among the Jews.

Then again in verse 65 Jesus reiterates what he said in verse 44, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father."

Can anybody see the doctrine of Election here?? Salvation is all of God and none of us.

God bless and enjoy

The Gospel of John - Part 4

Here in Part 4 we pick up where we left off with the woman at the well and the Samaritan's in Chapter 4.

The video then picks up in John 4:46-54 which is the story of Jesus healing the Roman official's son at Capernaum.

Chapter 5

After healing the official's son, Jesus heads to Jerusalem where he heals the paralyzed man at the Pool of Bethesda. We then see the Jewish leaders question the man because he had been healed on the Sabbath.

Part 4 ends with Jesus explaining to the religious leaders the authority of the Son.

Global Warming Update

Sorry to interrupt the Gospel of John series but I just couldn't pass this up. We have another update that blows away the Gore-bull Warming hysteria. Check out this link on how Alaska is freezing this summer. Its due to be the coldest summer on record. After reading the article be sure to read the comments below. It seems, not to many people are jumping on the Goreology bandwagon.

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming : )

The Gospel of John - Part 3

This part opens up in John chapter 3. In verses 1-21 we see Jesus' encounter with Nicodemus, a Pharisee and Jewish ruler. Here Jesus tells Nicodemus, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." (John 3:3)

And of course from there Jesus tells him what is probably the most famous verse in all of Scripture, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)

Next in verses 22-36 we witness John the Baptist exalting Christ to his followers. John's disciples come to him complaining that everyone was going to Jesus to be baptized. And is verse 30 John explains to them, "He must increase, but i must decrease."

Chapter 4

The second half of the video focuses to the famous exchange between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at Jacobs well. Here Jesus tells her about "Living Water." The woman confesses to Jesus that she knows the Messiah is coming. And Jesus reveals to her in verse 26, "I who speak to you am He."

The Gospel of John - Part 1

I've always wanted to see the movie The Gospel of John but just never got around to it. So I went to YouTube and typed it in and wouldn't you know it, there it is for all the world to see. Its broken up into 22 ten minute parts, so what I've decided to do is post one part each night until all 22 video's are here. Then all you've got to do is come to Raised By Grace and you can view each video until you've seen the whole movie.

It has really been a blessing to watch and is very powerful. If you love the Lord Jesus as much as I do, I think you'll really enjoy the next 22 days. And whenever you feel like you need some uplifting teaching from the Lord, you can just come back here and enjoy seeing the Gospel come to life right on your computer screen.

Here in part one we are introduced to the fact that Jesus is God "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God." (John 1:1) Here in part 1 we also meet John the Baptist.

Enjoy and God bless
