The healing of the man born blind is one of the most fascinating chapters in all of Scripture. This man--whose name we are never told--receives his sight from Jesus in an unparalleled miracle. Then, after being dragged twice in front of the religious leaders -- most of whom are themselves spiritually blind-- this man quickly sees through their hardness and unbelief, forcing them to resort to personal insults.
But Jesus is not content to leave the man with merely physical eyesight. Jesus seeks him out and opens the man's spiritual eyes to see who Jesus truly is. The man immediately sees, believes, and worships.
But not everyone sees the truth about Jesus as clearly as the man born blind.

In this chapter of John's gospel, Jesus turns the tables on the Pharisees and scribes who try to trap him by bringing him a woman caught in adultery. He makes another of His great "I AM" statements when he says, "I am the light of the world." This leads to a debate with the Pharisees, and as a result, "many came to believe in Him: (v. 30).
Next, Jesus continues to challenge the Jews who had believed in him, leading to another debate that culminates in Jesus specifically and expressly claiming to be divine: "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am." (v. 58). Not only does Jesus make this extraordinary claim, but He communicates it clearly to his listeners, who finally understand what He is saying, assume He is guilty of blasphemy, and immediately pick up stones to throw at Him--because the penalty for blasphemy was stoning under the Old Testament law.
But who is really blaspheming whom?

Here in chapter seven of John's gospel, Jesus stands up on the great day of the Feast and cries out: "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.'" Later, in the book of Revelation, John echoes this Gospel invitation: "Let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wishes take the water of life without cost." (Rev. 22:17)
How thirsty are we? And where are we going to quench our spiritual thirst? Will we turn to broken cisterns--all the lures and distractions of the world--that cannot satisfy?

The bread of life discourse takes a new turn in John chapter 6 verses 51-59, a passage that has given rise to much controversy. Are we to take Jesus literally when he tells His followers they must eat His flesh and drink His blood? If not, what is the Biblical warrant for not taking it literally and what are we to make of this? Join us for a spirited discussion with special guest Pastor Andrew Gretzinger of Good Shepard church in Valparaiso, Indiana, who helps us open this text, as well as the remainder of John chapter 6.

Chapter six begins with the fourth sign recorded by John in his gospel -- Jesus feeding of the five thousand, and continues with the fifth sign, Jesus walking on the water on the Sea of Galilee. Then, Jesus Himself explains the meaning of the feeding of the five thousand in the bread of life discourse, which forms the core of this chapter. There is incredibly rich and important teaching here. Jesus lifts our sights upward, away from the materialistic pursuit of physical bread, toward what we really need, the true, spiritual bread of life that only He can give.
Program note: Lord willing, our next episode will feature a special guest to discuss the "hard sayings" of Jesus found in verses 51-58 of this chapter. There, Jesus confronts the Jews directly with the reality that they are without hope unless they "eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood." This passage bears directly on, among other things, the Roman Catholic teaching of the Eucharist, and what does and does not take place when we engage in the sacrament of communion.The Romans Road to salvation in Jesus Christ.

In John chapter four, Jesus starts a revival by talking to a single Samaritan woman, despite the fact that at this time the Jews had no dealings with the Samaritans. What was going on here? Join us as we see Jesus open the eyes of the Samaritan woman to see who He is and how God wants His people to worship Him. Then, Jesus shows His power and further proof of His Messiahship by healing the royal official's son who is at the point of death--even though Jesus is far away.
Moral Perversion -- sermon by Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preached Feb. 23, 1964.
Like the woman at the well I was seeking
For things that could not satisfy;
And then I heard my Savior speaking,
Draw from My well that never shall run dry.
Fill my cup Lord, I lift it up Lord!
Come and quench this thirsting in my soul.
Bread of heaven, feed me til I want no more,
Fill my cup, fill my cup and make me whole.The Romans Road to salvation in Jesus Christ. This podcast is dedicated to the memory of beloved Bible teacher and friend Jhan Moskowitz. Read about Jhan's life and ministry with Jews for Jesus here.

"You must be born again" -- this is Jesus' clear and sobering teaching to Nicodemus in the gospel according to John chapter 3. What does this mean? How can we know we have been born or birthed from above? We learn here that the new birth is: (1) essential; (2) profoundly radical; and (3) supernatural. Join us as for this incredibly important episode as we examine the teachings of Jesus and the testimony of John the Baptizer about Jesus.

Many people think they know who Jesus is -- but have never read the inspired record. John gives us two unconventional snapshots of Jesus in chapter two of his gospel. Join us as we see that Jesus is not the cosmic killjoy many people think he is, and is so zealous for the proper worship of His heavenly Father that He is willing to use force to protect it.

Following John's massive prologue, he begins gathering and presenting his evidence through the testimony of those who knew Jesus: "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" "We have found the Messiah!"
John goes on to provide even more direct testimony -- including from the Holy Spirit Himself -- that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah long predicted by Moses and the prophets. John the Baptist is center stage, heralding the coming of the Messiah with great humility. "These things are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name."The Romans Road to salvation in Jesus Christ.
