    Commuter Bible NT

    Our chapter begins in a home in Bethany of Judea just before the Passover celebration takes place in Jerusalem. Jesus is there with Lazarus, Martha, and Mary, the latter of which washes the feet of Jesus with expensive perfume and with her hair, a decidedly lavish and humble act. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, the chief priests plot to kill Lazarus because he is evidence of Christ's power and authority. Later, Jesus enters Jerusalem with great fanfare as the crowds greet him with excitement and anticipation. While Jesus prophecies of his coming execution, God the Father speaks to Jesus audibly so that the crowd might hear. Our reading concludes with a summary of Jesus' mission. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

    John 14:6—How Is Jesus ‘the Life’?

    The teaching Jesus gave to his apostles the night before his crucifixion about him being 'the way, the truth, and the life' was a profound foundation that described the path of every true Christian. Jesus as 'the way' opened up the opportunity for average, sinful individuals to become acceptable to God through the merit of Jesus' sacrifice. He was and is the path we are to follow. As we walk this path, we can recognize Jesus as 'the truth' by accepting that his actions, teachings and example were always a direct reflection of the ultimate and pure truth that comes directly from the Father. Being on the path, following Jesus' example and absorbing the truth of God's words spoken through Jesus, we now can begin to open ourselves to understanding Jesus as 'the life.' At the beginning of John 15, Jesus taught us about how he is 'the life' in a rich metaphor of spiritual vitality. He called himself 'the true vine,' labeled God as the “Vinedresser” and his disciples as "branches." These relationships highlight spiritual nourishment and fruitful discipleship rooted in obedience and love. Here are just a few takeaways from this vital teaching: • Jesus as the 'true vine' shows us that his disciples must remain connected to him in order to bear fruit. God nurtures and prunes these branches to increase spiritual growth. • Any and all fruitfulness comes as a result of his disciples abiding in Christ, receiving cleansing through his words as well as yielding to the loving discipline of God. • Selfless love is central to bearing fruit, and Jesus openly modeled this specific kind of love through crystal clear obedience to his Father's will. His disciples were commanded to love one another sacrificially by following his example. His sacrifice IS life to us! Lazarus, come forth! As we look beyond this beautiful vine and branches teaching for just one other example of Jesus being 'the life,' the resurrection of Lazarus comes to mind. Lazarus had been dead for four days. As Jesus proclaimed himself to be 'the resurrection and the life,' he demonstrated God's power through him to miraculously reverse death and even decay. This incredible event foreshadowed the final resurrection and restoration of all humanity. Ultimately, Jesus is 'the life' because through him, death is overturned and eternal connection with the Father becomes possible. His life defines our purpose and our spiritual fruitfulness. Marked by love, it proves we truly "abide" in him.

    In today's episode, we'll consider the seventh of seven signs in John's gospel: the raising of Lazarus from the dead. When Jesus hears the news that his friend is sick, he doesn't leave immediately, but instead, he waits to days before travelling to Judea to see him. Remember, they recently left Judea because the Jews tried to stone Jesus when he was in Jerusalem. Upon entering Bethany of Judea, Christ is greeted by Martha, and after a brief exchange, Jesus tells her that he is the resurrection and the life, and shortly thereafter, Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead. This undeniable miracle infuriates the Pharisees who convene and conspire to kill him.  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

    In Evidence of the Exclusivity of Jesus, Dr. Michael Youssef presents seven undeniable signs from the Gospel of John proving that Jesus Christ is the one and only Son of God. Each message powerfully affirms the divinity of Christ, the inerrancy of Scripture, and the absolute necessity of repentance and faith. From turning water into wine to raising Lazarus from the dead, these supernatural acts are not myths—they are divine evidence that salvation is found in no one else. Through every storm, healing, and confrontation, Christ reveals His unmatched authority. This 7-part series calls every believer to deeper trust, wholehearted surrender, and bold Gospel witness in light of who Jesus truly is.

    Send us a textWhat happens when a human dies? Many ideas have been suggested. However, the Bible gives a clear but reserved answer. The focus in the Scripture is on the believer in Christ Jesus. Jesus gives a story of the rich man and Lazarus to warn us to heed the words of God now in order to prepare. Jesus also gives great assurance to those who believe on him. He says he gives them eternal life and will raise them from the dead on the last day. Until then he is with them even in death and they enjoy his presence while they await the day of his return to earth. Paul states that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, indicating a conscious and immediate presence with Christ after death. 2 Corinthians 5:8Bible Insights with Wayne ConradContact: 8441 Hunnicut Rd Dallas, Texas 75228email: Att.

    Luke 23:41-44 - "Today You Will Be With Me in Paradise"

    Pastor Mike Impact Ministries

    Welcometo Pastor's Chat as we continue to look at Luke 23. Jesus is on the cross inthe passages we've been reading and discussing. Today, in verse 43, Jesus spoketo the thief on the cross next to Him who had repented, who had recognized thatJesus Christ is the Son of God, sinless, stainless, blameless and who believedthat Jesus was dying not for any guilt of His own, but for the sins of theworld. It is apparent that the thief believed Jesus was the Messiah because hesaid, "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom."  Hereis a man who didn't have a chance to go to church, get baptized, or do anythingfor Jesus. Yet, he received God's full pardon for the guilt of his sins and receivedsalvation. Jesus responded to his request in verse 43, saying, "AssuredlyI say to you, today you will be with Me in paradise." Then, in verse44, Luke points out that it was about the sixth hour (noon), and there wasdarkness over all the earth until the ninth hour (3pm). Midway through the sixhours of Christ on the cross, right before that sixth hour, this thief receivesChrist and the assurance that he will be with Him in paradise.  Letme explain something about Paradise. I believe the Old Testament and NewTestament together teach that when people died in the Old Testament and up tothe resurrection of Christ, they went to a place called Sheol, which had twocompartments and was located somewhere in the heart of the earth. Jesusexplained this in Luke 16:19-31. When the rich man died, he went to hell, “andin hell, he lifted up his eyes in flames of fire, being in torment, saying,"I'm tormented in this flame." The poor man, Lazarus, went toa place called Abraham's bosom (Paradise), where he was comforted. The man inhell could see across to Paradise and saw Lazarus being comforted. He cried outfor relief for himself and asked for Lazarus to be sent to dip his finger in waterand cool his tongue. He also wanted someone to warn his brothers not to come tothis terrible place.  Jesusresponded that there is a great gulf fixed between them. So, it appears that inthe heart of the earth, there is a place called Sheol with a hell side, a flameside, a great gulf, and a paradise side. I believe Scripture shows the same dayafter Jesus death on the cross and He was buried in the grave, Jesus went tothe Paradise side and took everyone from there to what is called the “thirdheaven”. Why do we believe this? Because we believe paradise was emptiedout. That day, Jesus went to paradise because He said to the repenting criminal,"Today you'll be with Me in paradise."  Whilethe body of Jesus was in the grave, Jesus met this thief in Paradise, who hadgone there when he died. From there, Jesus then took everyone to the thirdheaven, where the throne of God is. Paul, in 2 Corinthians 12:3, said,"I knew a man who was caught up to the third heaven." Rememberthat Jesus also said in John 14:2-3, “ I go to prepare a place foryou.  Jesuspromised the disciples a new place which He called “My Father's house”,which we believe is the “third heaven”, where today He is seated at theright hand of God. Interestingly, also we might note that when Stephen wasbeing stoned to death in Acts 7:54-56, that it says that, "he gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standingat the right hand of God"  2Corinthians 5:8 says, "To be absent from the body is to be present withthe Lord." Why? Because the Lord is in the third heaven, where He tookthose from Paradise. But today, people who die without Christ still go to aterrible place called hell located in “Sheol”. And one day in the future,according to Revelation 20:13-14, those in hell will stand before the greatwhite throne judgment and be cast into the lake of fire, a place of outerdarkness where the beast, the false prophet, and Satan will be for eternity.

    I AM 3 We are now on day 17 of our series "Glimpses", looking at the story of the Bible in 30 days, from the time of creation through to the time of the fullness of redemption! Jesus' teaching continues to be met with amazement yet also fury, hatred and ridicule! Today we continue looking at one particularly aspect of his teaching - himself - and 1 more I AM statement. We have already seen that Jesus is the bread of life, the light of the world, the gate and the shepherd - all the things the nation of Israel was to be but failed to do so. John 11:17-40 When Jesus arrived at Bethany, he was told that Lazarus had already been in his grave for four days. Bethany was only a few miles down the road from Jerusalem, and many of the people had come to console Martha and Mary in their loss. When Martha got word that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him. But Mary stayed in the house. Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that God will give you whatever you ask." Jesus told her, "Your brother will rise again." "Yes," Martha said, "he will rise when everyone else rises, at the last day." Jesus told her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying. Everyone who lives in me and believes in me will never ever die. Do you believe this, Martha?" "Yes, Lord," she told him. "I have always believed you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who has come into the world from God." Then she returned to Mary. She called Mary aside from the mourners and told her, "The Teacher is here and wants to see you." So Mary immediately went to him. Jesus had stayed outside the village, at the place where Martha met him. When the people who were at the house consoling Mary saw her leave so hastily, they assumed she was going to Lazarus's grave to weep. So they followed her there. When Mary arrived and saw Jesus, she fell at his feet and said, "Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died." When Jesus saw her weeping and saw the other people wailing with her, a deep anger welled up within him and he was deeply troubled. "Where have you put him?" he asked them. They told him, "Lord, come and see." Then Jesus wept. The people who were standing nearby said, "See how much he loved him!" But some said, "This man healed a blind man. Couldn't he have kept Lazarus from dying?" Jesus was still angry as he arrived at the tomb, a cave with a stone rolled across its entrance. "Roll the stone aside," Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man's sister, protested, "Lord, he has been dead for four days. The smell will be terrible." Jesus responded, "Didn't I tell you that you would see God's glory if you believe?" So they rolled the stone aside. Then Jesus looked up to heaven and said, "Father, thank you for hearing me. You always hear me, but I said it out loud for the sake of all these people standing here, so that they will believe you sent me." Then Jesus shouted, "Lazarus, come out!" And the dead man came out, his hands and feet bound in graveclothes, his face wrapped in a headcloth. Jesus told them, "Unwrap him and let him go!" Resurrection and the Life Jesus has claimed to be the Son of God in John 10v22-41 and John 11v4. Strong words indeed, but will Jesus' actions back up those words? His friend Lazarus was sick, so his sisters sent word to Jesus about this, hoping that Jesus could heal him. Jesus replies to this family he loves, that the illness will not result in death! How could he be so sure, particularly from a distance? Though Jesus knew that Lazarus was dead, he still waited a further days before going there. He knew it didn't matter whether Lazarus was dead 2 days or 4 days - dead is dead! Exclamation Jesus is the Messiah! Such was the eagerness of Martha to see Jesus when he eventually came, she left the house of mourners and expressed some faith that God would hear Jesus' prayers. She uttered that Jesus was the Messiah, the Christ, the saviour spoken about in the Old Testament. But was that just wishful thinking as later she doubted he could do it? Exclamation Jesus is the Resurrection and the Life! The exclamation by Jesus in John 11v25 "I am the resurrection and the life" from verse is the highlight of this passage of Scripture. Lazarus has died (John 11v17) and will be raised back to life again (John 11v44). Being raised back to life is not resurrection! It means more than. Why does Jesus say that he is the resurrection and the life? Resurrection, on one level, certainly does mean bring back to life. But it means much more as we shall see later on in this series. As can be seen from this passage, he is the giver of life itself. Not only physically but also in a spiritual sense. He gives eternal life to all who will believe in him. Jesus' humanity! Note Jesus' emotions in this passage: love, feelings moved, weeping and sorrow. Showing his true humanity and his heart of compassion for people. Emotions, such as Jesus being deeply angry? But with who or with what? Most people are surprised that Jesus gets angry and some people even deny it! The gospel writers weren't afraid to say Jesus got angry though! I would suggest that as Jesus is the life, Jesus is angry with death, decay as they are the end result of sin. Jesus is angry because death hurts people, even people close to him, as Lazarus and his family were to him. This stirs Jesus deeply. Jesus is full of compassion, pity, sympathy, grief and care for this family. He shares their pain and shows it in his tears. He loves them and is determined to show this love in practise. Jesus' Divinity! Then the moment of truth arrives! Will Jesus be true to his word and raise Lazarus back to life again? Some doubted but Jesus knew that God would answer his prayers. First he thanks God that for hearing him and then issues the command for Lazarus to come out! And come out he did! One of the WOW moments of the Gospels! Jesus was true to his word, God heard his prayers and Lazarus was raised from the dead! He was dead but now back to physical life! One day Lazarus would die physically again but for now he had new life! This Jesus even had authority over death and life! Amazing! Yet, just after this event, the Jewish authorities, who were watching carefully, came up with a plot to kill Jesus. What do you think the covenants we looked at had to say about this, particularly the New Covenant? Life and death physically but also life and death spiritually? Jesus the giver of life! Why can Jesus exclaim with authority "I AM the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live"? Right mouse click or tap here to download as a MP3 audio file

    Introduction The message focuses on the compassion and empathy of Jesus, highlighting specific instances from the Bible where Jesus was moved by human suffering, faith, and the spiritual state of people. Pastor Tommy emphasizes that Jesus is touched by our infirmities and cares about our lives, encouraging listeners to approach Him with boldness and faith. Jesus' Compassion and Empathy Jesus is touched by our infirmities: Quoting Hebrews 4:15, "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities." He understands what we go through and is able to help in times of need. A cry for mercy moves Jesus: The story of blind Bartimaeus in Mark 10 is used as an example. Bartimaeus cried out, "Thou son of David, have mercy on me," and Jesus stopped for him. Emphasizes that earnest cries to God still move Him to respond and help. Acts of faith touch Jesus: The story of the woman with the issue of blood is referenced. She believed that touching the hem of Jesus' garment would heal her. "If I could just touch the hem of His garment, I know that I'll be made whole." Jesus felt power leave Him and turned to find out who touched Him. Faith intersects with God's faithfulness to create miracles. The Centurion's faith: The Centurion's faith in Luke 7 is highlighted. The Centurion believed Jesus could heal his servant from a distance by just saying the word. "I am not worthy that you come under my roof. But...if you'll just say the word...my servant will be healed." Jesus marveled at the Centurion's great faith, "I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel." Pastor Tommy expresses a desire for people to believe God in such a way that He marvels at their faith. Unbelief makes Jesus marvel: In Mark 6:6, Jesus marveled because of the unbelief of the people in his hometown. He was limited in what he could do because people didn't believe. Pastor Tommy expresses a desire to not have Jesus marvel at their unbelief after all the blessings and help He has provided. Hardness of hearts angers Jesus: Reference to Mark 3:5, where Jesus was angry and grieved by the hardness of hearts of the Pharisees. They were more concerned about the Sabbath than the man with the withered hand. "He looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts." Pastor Tommy urges listeners to ask God to search their hearts and remove any wickedness that leads to hardness of heart. Suffering saints move Jesus: The story of Stephen in Acts 7 is used as an example. Stephen, while being stoned, looked up to heaven and saw Jesus standing at the right hand of God. The suffering of those who are martyred or suffer for the cause of Christ still moves God today. Pastor Tommy believes Jesus has stood up for them in times of suffering. Jesus weeps: Jesus wept at the tomb of Lazarus (John 11:33, 35). He was moved by the weeping of Mary and the other Jews. "When Jesus therefore saw her weeping...He groaned in the spirit and was troubled. And...Jesus wept." He wept not for Lazarus, but for those still alive and grieving. Jesus wept over Jerusalem (Luke 19:41). He was moved by the lost souls in the city. "When He was come near, He beheld the city, and wept over it." Pastor Tommy believes Jesus is still touched by the lost people in the world and the lack of people willing to share the gospel. Conclusion and Invitation Come boldly to the throne of grace: Based on Hebrews 4:16, knowing that Jesus is touched by our infirmities, we can come boldly to the throne of grace. "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." We can take our cares and troubles to Him, knowing He cares and is touched by what we are going through.

    Summer at Bay Chapel | July 13, 2025Pastor Bria BradshawJohn 11:17–27 ESV Now when Jesus came, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days. Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off, and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother. So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary remained seated in the house.Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you.” Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” She said to him, “Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.” ✓ Yesterday's DisappointmentsJohn 11:21 “Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”John 11:32 Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” ✓ Tomorrow's DistanceJohn 11:23-24 Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Key Thought: Jesus doesn't just want us saved, He wants us ALIVE!COME ALIVE 1. We Come Alive"By your Spirit, I will rise from the ashes of defeat. The resurrected King is resurrecting me.”Galatians 2:20 ESV I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 2. The World Comes AliveRomans 6:4-5 ESV We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.

    Hell is a topic most would rather ignore—but Jesus didn’t. In this sobering message, Pastor Chris Rieber unpacks the powerful story of the Rich Man and Lazarus from Luke 16. Through this passage, we’re confronted with the uncomfortable yet undeniable reality of Hell—a place of eternal separation from God. Pastor Chris emphasizes the urgency of avoiding such a fate, not through fear, but through faith in Christ. He also challenges believers to carry the weighty but necessary responsibility of sharing the gospel with a world that desperately needs hope and truth. This episode is both a wake-up call and a call to action. Eternity is real—and what we do with the gospel matters more than ever.

Each message powerfully affirms the divinity of Christ, the inerrancy of Scripture, and the absolute necessity of repentance and faith. From turning water into wine to raising Lazarus from the dead, these supernatural acts are not myths—they are divine evidence that salvation is found in no one else.

    Daily Devotions From Greg Laurie
    A Worshiper of Christ | Luke 10:41–42

    Daily Devotions From Greg Laurie

    “But the Lord said to her, ‘My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.’” (Luke 10:41–42 NLT) If your aim is to experience genuine revival in your spiritual life, in addition to being an ambassador for Christ and a neighbor like Christ, you must also be a worshiper of Christ. That’s the third ministry role found in Luke 10. Some believers make the mistake of allowing their work for God to overshadow their worship of God. They convince themselves that what they say or do is indispensable to God’s kingdom. That their ministry is vital to the success of the Christian faith. That God needs them. Newsflash: God doesn’t need us. Another newsflash: Everything that believers do must emanate from our worship of God. Worship is the source of our power and effectiveness, so it must be our top priority. If it isn’t, we will not burn bright for Christ. We won’t feel a sense of revival. Instead, we’ll find ourselves burning out. We can’t give out what we don’t possess. We can’t take people any further than we’ve gone ourselves. We see this principle played out in the story of Jesus’ visit to the house of his friends Mary, Martha, and Lazarus in Luke 10. Storm clouds were looming large in the life of the Lord. In fact, He was on His way to Jerusalem to be crucified. Before that happened, He wanted to talk about the coming changes with His friends. This was an important evening. Martha’s instinct was to prepare a good meal for Jesus—to stay busy doing things for Him. Mary, on the other hand, “sat at the Lord’s feet, listening to what he taught” (Luke 10:39 NLT). Martha saw obligation; Mary saw opportunity. The Creator of the universe, in human form, was sitting in her house, revealing life-changing spiritual truths. As far as Mary was concerned, washing dishes and setting the table could wait. Her priority was to spend as much time as possible in Jesus’ presence. Martha grew annoyed with Mary for not joining her in her busy work. She took her complaint to Jesus. “Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me” (verse 40 NLT). Jesus helped her see where her priorities were out of order. “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her” (verses 41–42 NLT). There’s a time for work and a time for worship. Martha’s mistake was offering activity instead of adoration, perspiration instead of inspiration, and work instead of worship. She didn’t realize that Jesus preferred her company over her service in that situation. He wanted her fellowship and companionship more than He wanted a meal. There are countless ways to serve Jesus, but our worship must come first. That’s where our spiritual power and energy come from. That’s where revival begins. What we do with Christ is far more important than what we do for Christ. Reflection question: What can you do to revitalize your Christian worship?

    In 2011, Karey Packard and her daughter were packing boxes for a move to a new home. Suddenly, Karey collapsed, and her heart stopped—the beginning of a long nightmare. Doctors revived Karey, but her condition worsened through the night. Her husband, Craig, was told to call family to say final goodbyes. They prayed what Craig called, “a prayer of desperation.” How often have we prayed a prayer of desperation in a crisis? Mary and Martha did. They sent a desperate message to Jesus: their brother Lazarus, “the one you love,” was gravely ill (John 11:3). When Jesus finally arrived, Lazarus had been dead for four days. Martha, in anguish, said to Jesus: “If you had been here, my brother would not have died” (v. 11:21). She knew Jesus could heal sick people but could not imagine His power to overcome death. Jesus, of course, raised Lazarus, a foreshadowing of His own resurrection weeks later. Karey Packard had officially flatlined, yet miraculously God brought her back to life. In the stories of both Karey and Lazarus it’s easy to miss the point: God has purposes that we don’t know. He neither heals everyone nor brings all dead people back to life. But He gives us a transcending assurance: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die” (v. 25). As believers, whatever happens, we know we’ll be with Jesus. Maybe that makes our desperate prayers a little less desperate.
