John – Sign of a Raised Serpent
That Raised Serpent! – Symbol of Evil & Death

In the year of our Lord 2018, I wrote a brief series: God’s Love Through John which includes Scripture from his Gospel, letters and Revelation. Last year in A.D. 2020 we explored John’s Gospel in more detail. Our next three Scriptural Reruns explore John’s look at the sign of the raised serpent, looking back near the beginning and also toward the end.

Tomorrow we will zoom in near John 3:16 and finally we’ll take a glance at Genesis to Revelation.

“No one has ascended into heaven, except He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man.
John 3:13 NASB20 – Christ Jesus to Nicodemus

Scriptures

John 2,3,4,20 excerpts

Psalm 69

Numbers 21

Christ’s CHURCH -2- His Gospel of the Kingdom
Who’s Kingdom? Where is it? When?

What is the Good News of the Kingdom?

All questions of the Church and even those sceptics the Lord will choose — questions about when God will finally look more like a King in charge of His own Kingdom creation. This post is not exhaustive of course, but it brings Scripture from the Gospel into our conversation about the Kingdom of God.

John tells us:

Jesus IS the WORD of God and even more than that which we can see or hear.

Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king,
Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
Gospel of John 15:6 – quote from previous talkofJesus.com post

Jesus Christ rose from death! He brought Good News to the captives of death.

Yet some seek to prove that God will never reign over death and the souls of His creation.

Scriptures

Matthew 5,6,7 & 24 excerpts

John 10 & 14 excerpts

Acts of the Apostles 7:35-40

Christ’s CHURCH + His ‘saints’ on MISSION

Christ’s CHURCH – Vision and Mission

our church Mission

Our local church has a vision, a mission statement and much more. (Most likely you church does too.) Do you know your church vision? Does your pastor preach scripture to you and your church?

In a brief look at traditional business plans of local churches I provide the saints (church members) with some food for thought.

Do you have one related to God’s will?

Here’s my Statement of Faith.

Scriptures

1 Timothy 1:15

2 Corinthians 4:3

Mark 16:15-16

Philippians 3:

The Goal of Life [NASB heading]
