John 15:12-17 17:18

לפני 4 ימים17:18

17:18

In this episode, we explore one of the most profound teachings of Jesus in John 15:12-17—his call to sacrificial love. Jesus commands his disciples to love one another as he has loved them, making it clear that the greatest love is one that lays down its life for others. But what does that really mean for us today? We unpack the difference between Christian love and cultural ideas of love, the shift from servant to friend, and the deep assurance that we are chosen by Christ. Join us as we reflect on the radical, self-giving love that defines the Christian life.

In this episode, we dive into John 15:1-11, where Jesus declares, “I am the true vine.” This powerful metaphor reminds us that true discipleship requires staying connected to Christ, which naturally leads to bearing fruit in our lives. We explore the tension between faith and action, how abiding in Jesus transforms both our relationships and everyday choices, and why this connection ultimately leads to complete joy.

In this study of John 14:22-31, we explore Jesus’ promise of peace and the presence of the Holy Spirit. As Judas (not Iscariot) questions how Jesus will reveal Himself, Jesus explains that those who love Him will keep His word, and God’s Spirit will dwell with them. The Holy Spirit, called the Advocate, will teach and remind the disciples of everything Jesus said, ensuring they are never alone. This promise is both practical and comforting, offering peace that transcends fear and uncertainty. Even though Jesus will physically leave, the Spirit’s presence ensures that His teachings and guidance remain accessible to all believers.

In this study of John 14:15-21, we explore Jesus' promise to His disciples that they will not be left alone after His departure. He assures them that the Father will send the Holy Spirit—the Advocate and Spirit of Truth—to guide, comfort, and empower them. This passage highlights the relational nature of faith: loving Jesus means keeping His commandments, yet we are not expected to do so by our own strength. The Spirit is given to dwell within believers, ensuring they are never spiritually orphaned. Ultimately, because Jesus lives, those who follow Him share in His life, both now and eternally.

In this episode, we explore John 14:8-14, where Philip’s request to “show us the Father” leads to one of Jesus’ most profound responses. We discuss why the disciples struggled to recognize God’s presence in Jesus and how we often face the same challenge in our faith. We also unpack Jesus’ surprising promise that those who believe in Him will do even greater works, exploring what that means for the Church today. Join us as we wrestle with the tension between doubt, faith, and the ongoing work of Christ through His followers.

In John 14, Jesus makes one of his most well-known and theologically rich statements: "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." This study unpacks the significance of Jesus’ words, particularly in response to Thomas’ question about knowing the way. We explore how Jesus doesn’t just show the way—he is the way, and how truth and life are found in him alone. We also discuss how this passage has been understood in Christian theology, particularly its implications for discipleship and salvation. Finally, we examine how John’s Gospel consistently presents Jesus as the full revelation of God, calling his followers to center their lives completely on him.

In John 14, Jesus speaks words of deep comfort to His disciples, reminding them not to let their hearts be troubled. This passage, often read at funerals, carries a promise that extends beyond grief—it assures all believers that there is a place prepared for them in the Father's house. Clint and Michael reflect on the pastoral nature of this text, highlighting how Jesus acknowledges human weakness while extending grace and assurance. Rather than getting lost in speculation about the afterlife, they focus on the simple yet profound truth: God's house has room for all who follow Christ. This message of faith over fear remains just as powerful today as it was for the disciples.

As Jesus prepares for what lies ahead, Peter makes a bold declaration: “I will lay down my life for you.” But Jesus responds with a sobering truth—before the rooster crows, Peter will deny him three times. In this study, we explore the weight of Jesus’ words, the human struggle between intention and failure, and how this moment sets the stage for the events to come. Join us as we reflect on the significance of Peter’s question, Jesus’ response, and the profound grace found in this passage.

In this episode, we dive into John 13, where Jesus gives his disciples a new commandment—one that will define them in the world: "Love one another as I have loved you." But what does that love look like? And why does Jesus say this after speaking about his own glorification? We explore how John's Gospel resists oversimplification, pushing us to see the mystery and depth of Christ’s love. This passage isn’t just about warm feelings—it’s about a radical, self-giving love that mirrors Jesus’ own sacrifice. Join us as we unpack why love is the true mark of a disciple.

In this episode, we explore John’s unique telling of the betrayal of Jesus by Judas. Unlike the other Gospels, John doesn’t emphasize the Last Supper in the same way, but instead focuses on the moment of betrayal. Why is Jesus troubled in spirit? What does the act of giving bread to Judas signify? And why does John make a point to say, “It was night”? We dive into the themes of light and darkness, Jesus’ foreknowledge of his betrayal, and the complex role Judas plays in the story. Join us as we unpack this pivotal moment in John’s Gospel.

In this study, we explore Jesus' powerful act of washing His disciples' feet in John 13 and the radical call to humility it represents. Jesus flips the world’s idea of leadership and power on its head, showing that true greatness comes through serving others. This act is more than symbolic—it’s a command for all disciples to embody servanthood in their daily lives. We also reflect on how Jesus’ foreknowledge of Judas’ betrayal emphasizes His control over His mission and the ongoing call for Christians to not just know the truth but to live it.

In today’s episode, we explore John 13, where Jesus shocks his disciples by washing their feet, a task reserved for the lowest servant. This unexpected act highlights humility, love, and service at the core of Jesus’ ministry. Peter’s reaction—both refusal and overcorrection—reflects our own struggles with accepting and embodying Christlike service. We also discuss the profound moment where Jesus washes Judas’s feet, knowing his betrayal is imminent. This text challenges us to reconsider how we show love, even to those who oppose us, and invites us into a life of radical, self-giving service.

In this study of John 12, we explore the perplexing reality that even when Jesus performed miracles, not everyone believed. The conversation delves into the mysterious interplay of God's providence and human response, examining why some hearts are open to the light of Christ while others are blinded. Themes of fear, community, and the temptation of earthly glory are unpacked, alongside Jesus' reminder that his mission is not to judge but to save. This text challenges us to reflect on our own faith, asking if we are choosing temporary comforts over the eternal light of God.

In this episode, we explore a fascinating moment in John 12 where some Greeks come seeking Jesus, marking a pivotal shift in the Gospel narrative. This encounter highlights the expanding reach of Jesus’s ministry beyond the Jewish people, foreshadowing the global scope of the gospel. Jesus responds with profound teachings about sacrifice, likening his death to a grain of wheat that must die to bear much fruit. We also delve into the powerful themes of light and darkness, discipleship, and the deep mystery of Jesus’s mission.

In this study, we explore John’s unique telling of the triumphal entry in chapter 12. Unlike other Gospels, John positions this pivotal moment early, emphasizing Jesus’ move to Jerusalem as a central part of the story. We unpack the significance of Jesus riding a donkey as a humble yet powerful statement of kingship, while reflecting on the crowd’s response, divided between belief and opposition. With connections to Old Testament prophecy and the impact of Lazarus’ resurrection, we see how John draws readers into the bigger story of who Jesus is and what His glorification means.
