Many people aren’t aware that the often quoted John 3:16 is part of a nighttime conversation between Jesus and one of the Jewish leaders of that time – Nicodemus. Nicodemus didn’t understand what Jesus meant when He said we must be born again to enter the Kingdom of God. Jesus gently explained His meaning using an example from the Old Testament with which Nicodemus was very familiar – the story of God’s command to Moses to make a bronze serpent and hang it upon a pole so that any Israelite who looked upon it would be healed of the deadly venom after they were bitten by the snakes that God had brought into the Israelite’s midst following their complaints against Moses and against God. Jesus told Nicodemus that just as the Israelites had been healed from the poison of the snakes, all mankind would be healed from the poison of our sin when Jesus was lifted up (on the cross).

Nicodemus finally understood and believed, but it was only the beginning of his journey of faith. He remained a secret believer until he actually saw Jesus lifted up on the cross. After Jesus died, Nicodemus and his fellow Jewish leader Joseph of Arimathea performed the Jewish rites of burial for Jesus’ body.

As Christ followers we must honestly examine our motivations for our service to the Gospel. If we find we are not following the Lord for the right reasons, we must confess this sin before God, and seek His strength and guidance to bring us back into truly godly fellowship.

Only Jesus can do the signs and wonders that He has done and still continues to do. But He also uses His children to do our part in accomplishing His works through those things we can do by faith and obedience to His will.

On the night He was betrayed to die on the cross in our place so that we might be forgiven of our sins and restored into fellowship with God, Jesus gave His disciples “a new commandment” that we love one another, saying that people would recognize that we are His disciples through the love we exhibit for one another. But exactly how do we show this love that Jesus has commanded for our brothers and sisters in Christ. Paul tells us that our love for one another must be genuine, and gives some concise characteristics of this love in Romans 12:9-17.

This message begins a new series focused on Paul’s epistle to the churches surrounding Ephesus. It’s no secret that Christians are called to be different. We are to be “new” and not hold on to the “old”. In Ephesians Paul teaches what it’s truly like to be different. We live… read more

Every believer understands the command by Jesus to “Go therefore and make disciples”, but very few strive to make evangelism part of their daily lives. When we allow our hearts to be in tune with our Savior’s, evangelism then becomes something which will flow from our mouths and our actions… read more
