John 5

Send us a text

Imagine a world where our churches miss the beauty of miracles due to a strict interpretation of the law. That's the reality we unpack in our deep-dive into John 5:1-18, where we explore the astounding miracle of a man healed after 38 years of affliction and the startling reaction of the Jews to this event. We question the Jews' fixation on the Sabbath laws over the marvel of the miracle itself and ponder whether our modern-day churches could be caught in a similar web of legalism.

Next, we turn our attention to the powerful words Jesus imparts to the man he's healed. We dissect his warning to “sin no more, that nothing worse may happen to you” and what it could mean for us today. We then journey into Jesus' profound speech on eternal life, judgment, and his unique kinship with the Father.

Finally, we delve into Jesus' confrontation with the Pharisees about their lack of faith. We dissect the implications of the resurrection of life and judgment and the idea that Jesus doesn't need validation from mere mortals. This episode is a smorgasbord of thought-provoking discussion on faith, miracles, and the divine authority of Jesus. So pull up a chair, grab your Bible, and let's ponder the mysteries of faith together.
