This sermon on John 12:1–11 explores Mary's extravagant act of anointing Jesus with costly perfume as a powerful model of true worship. Contrasting Mary's wholehearted devotion with Judas' hypocrisy, the message teaches that genuine worship flows from a heart transformed by gratitude for Christ's saving grace rather than from outward religious actions alone. The sermon emphasizes that understanding the depth of God's forgiveness naturally produces thankfulness, generous sacrifice, and a willingness to worship without concern for cultural expectations or personal reputation. Using examples throughout Scripture, it explains that authentic worship is marked by gratitude, heartfelt devotion, and a life fully surrendered to Christ, extending far beyond singing in church to every aspect of daily living. Believers are challenged to reject empty religiosity, embrace an intimate relationship with Jesus, and live as a “sweet aroma” of Christ wherever they go, recognizing that every action can glorify God. Ultimately, the message concludes that worship is not merely an event or a song but a lifestyle, calling Christians to offer their entire lives as living sacrifices in response to the overwhelming mercy, love, and grace they have received through Jesus Christ.

“Deity of Christ” believers have claimed that Isaiah saw Jesus, the “second person of the Godhead”, in Isaiah's vision of God recorded in Isaiah 6. The deity-of-Christ claim is that when John wrote, “Isaiah said this because he saw his glory and spoke of him” (John 12:41) that when Isaiah saw God sitting on his throne in a vision, Isaiah saw Jesus.Did the prophet Isaiah, who claimed the God of Israel was the Father, claim to have seen God the Son and his glory?Or, was John claiming that "his glory" which Isaiah prophetically saw was the glory of the Servant of YHVH God?Resources: Written text of this podcast: https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2026/07/john-1237-45-john-does-not-claim-that.htmlBill Schlegel One God Report: https://www.youtube.com/@billschlegel1The Trinity is NOT Biblical: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1VuvKEyB0gDeity of Christ Interpretations of Scripture Dishonor Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2VOKEvGqAwWhat About John 1?

Six days before Passover, as all Jerusalem prepares lambs for slaughter, Mary pours out a pound of costly perfume over Jesus' feet at a dinner in the slum of Bethany, and the whole house fills with its fragrance. In this single extravagant act, Jesus is revealed as the Passover lamb, the consecrated priest, the anointed King, and the Bridegroom on his way to the grave. David and Christine walk through Jesus' anointing in John 12, tracing how Mary's offering prepares the body of Life himself to carry the aroma of resurrection down into the tomb.

Why do people ignore what they know is true?We all do it. We know what we should do, but something keeps us from taking the next step.Pastor Doug teaches through John 12:37-50, we'll discover why information alone doesn't change us, how our hearts can slowly become hardened, and how genuine faith can bring freedom, purpose, and direction to everyday life.
This episode originally aired on August 29, 2022. We've learned more about Jesus in John 12:37-15:17, but if we don't do something with it, then it hasn't really been helpful information. Ken and Mike discuss different ways that will help you put into practice what we've been learning about and from Jesus. This includes what it means to be a servant leader; how we know if a teaching is from the Holy Spirit; and further insight we can gain from Jesus' metaphor drawn from viticulture. The discussion is practical and offers tangible ways for someone to start implementing these practices into their life today.Support the show

The Anatomy of an Unbelieveing Heart - John 12 37-50 - Pastor Dave Kiehn
In John 12:12–50, Jesus enters Jerusalem as King, but not the kind of king many expected. The crowd welcomed Him with palm branches and shouts of “Hosanna,” hoping for a political deliverer who would overthrow Rome and restore national power. But Jesus came riding on a donkey, revealing a different kind of Kingdom.Jesus is the humble King, the gathering King, the glorified King, and the revealing King. He did not come to conquer by taking life, but by laying His life down. The victory the crowd wanted came through conquest, but the victory Jesus brought came through the cross.As we finish “The Source” section of John's Gospel, we see that Jesus is the Source of ultimate victory. He conquers sin, death, and darkness through His sacrifice, and He invites us to believe, follow, and walk in the light.Support the show

The Fathers Delight - John 12 20-36 - Pastor Dave Kiehn
In John 12:1–11, Jesus returns to Bethany, where Lazarus is alive, Martha is serving, and Mary pours out costly perfume at the feet of Jesus. Her worship was pure, costly, broken, poured out, and it filled the house with fragrance.But not everyone celebrated her offering. Judas criticized what he could not understand, calling her worship wasteful. Jesus defended Mary and revealed that her extravagant act was preparing Him for burial.This message, “The Fragrance That Fills the House,” calls us to examine the worship we bring to Jesus. Is it convenient, controlled, and consumer-driven, or is it costly, surrendered, and poured out in love?When Jesus is truly treasured, worship changes the atmosphere.Scripture: John 12:1–11Series: The SourceSpeaker: Pastor Josh BrownChurch: Overflow ChurchSupport the show
Jesus said, "And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself." When Jesus Christ died on a cross, he died for sinners. Whosoever believes that Jesus Christ died and rose again for the forgiveness of sin, will receive the gift of eternal life. Verses: John 12: 32-50, John 3: 16-21, Isaiah 53 Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson
The Counterintuitive Path to Following Jesus | John 12 Bible StudyIn this episode of the Rooted & Raised Podcast, we dive into John 12 and explore one of the most challenging truths Jesus ever taught:"Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit." – John 12:24The world tells us to chase comfort, success, and self-preservation. Jesus teaches the exact opposite. In John 12, we see Mary's extravagant worship, Jesus' triumphal entry, and His call for believers to surrender their lives in order to truly live.In This Episode:✔️ Why Mary poured out expensive perfume on Jesus✔️ The difference between true worship and religious appearance✔️ What Jesus meant by "losing your life" to find it✔️ Why following Christ often feels counterintuitive✔️ How surrender leads to spiritual fruitfulness✔️ Practical ways to apply John 12 to your daily walkWhether you're new to the Bible or have been following Christ for years, John 12 offers a powerful reminder that God's way is often very different from our own.
Jesus triumphantly entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday as the crowd proclaimed him as King. Jesus is King, but not as the people supposed. Jesus chose a cross as his throne, thorns as his crown, and sacrifice as his mission. Verses: John 12: 12-33, Luke 14: 26 Pastor: Daniel Hendrickson
