Jesus: The Word and Light of Grace

Explore the teachings from the Gospel of John, focusing on the identity and deity of Jesus. John emphasizes that Jesus led a sinless life and was condemned so humanity might be forgiven. The purpose of John's writings, as stated in John 20:31, is to help readers believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and find life in His name. Insights are provided into the significance of Jesus' divine nature, His role as Creator, and the importance of recognizing Him not just as an incredible teacher and historic figure, but as the Son of God. The message reflects on misunderstandings around Jesus' identity, particularly in contrast with other beliefs such as those held by Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses. Emphasizing faith in the eyewitness account of John, the narrative underlines the essential belief in Jesus as both fully God and fully human, and His purpose of dwelling among humanity and dying for their sins.
