Why is Jesus called the Light? What does it mean to walk in the Light? Rabbi Schneider shares that we need to learn to think above the natural and into the supernatural. Jesus came to manifest the Light and to call us out of the darkness. We have been enlightened through the Holy Spirit and given the ability to perceive spiritually what has been revealed through Christ Jesus. The Gospel of John points to the fact that deep, down inside everybody knows that there is a God. God can show up in a way much bigger than our small minds can conceive. Receiving Jesus means to bring Him into our lives, offering ourselves to Him each day, depending on God. We begin to understand what it means to be a child of God through the supernatural relationship with Him as we are drawn to walk in the Light. Visit our website at DiscoveringTheJewishJesus.com

In this message, we explore the differences between receiving a gift like a book and the gift of Jesus! We find that the gift of Jesus is both costly and supplies all wisdom and knowledge. The lordship of Jesus is not just for one part of our life but grows to have authority over every part of our life.

Below are a few key points from todqay's group discussion. I pray these will resonate with you...- Receiving Jesus as our Lord and Savior is the first time we obey the Holy Spirit.- Satan is the creator of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.- Satan is a singular created being and can only be where he is.- Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is rejecting God and following Satan.- Jesus had to return to the Father so He could send the Holy Spirit. The biggest gift! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Verse by verse study through the book of John Chapter Thirteen and Verse Twenty
Who is Jesus? This is the most important question anyone can ask. Is He a deceiver, a lunatic, a prophet, a teacher, or the Son of God? These questions have been asked for centuries. In the Gospels, people wrestled with who Jesus was—healing the sick, calming storms, and teaching with authority. Yet, they reached different conclusions. In Luke 11, we see groups who Mistook Jesus, thinking they had Him figured out, but they were wrong. Their mistaken responses are still seen today. Let's learn from their mistakes and avoid Mistaking Jesus. Dismissing without Discernment Jesus desires, deserves, and demands our attention. Liberation without Lordship Jesus desires, deserves, and demands our surrender. Fandom without Following Jesus desires, deserves, and demands our obedience. Signs without Seeking Jesus desires, deserves, and demands our trust. Revelation without Receiving Jesus desires, deserves, and demands our welcome. Takeaway: What will you do with Jesus? C. S. Lewis in Mere Christianity: “I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”

Receiving Jesus' invitation to come to him will bring you relief from whatever burdens you and wears on your soul.
We continue listening to Jesus, now as he talks to us about us being "trees," with "fruit" that is shown primarily in how we speak about him.

On Purpose // Week 1 In this series, we explore the discipleship pathway modeled by the early followers of Jesus in the book of Acts. Each week, we'll dive into a different aspect of discipleship—starting with our first steps of faith, learning from Jesus, serving others, giving joyfully, and ultimately, making disciples ourselves. These foundational practices can transform your life and empower you to live out your faith with purpose and passion.
In this week's episode, Fr. Kerry and interim host Clay Furleigh conclude the conversation about the do's and don'ts from receiving Holy Communion to the end of the Mass.

True freedom and identity is revealed in Christ. There is no enlightenment apart from Jesus Christ, the light of the world. Join Bill Vanderbush in a study of John 1.
We all have a pretty specific version of what we think of when we think of the Christmas story. The apostle John, however, records a different version of what happened. His focus is not just on THAT Christ was born, or HOW he was born, but WHY he was born. This week, Pastor Jimmy Nimon kicks off our series, Receiving Jesus, with a message about how to receive God's promises.

Jesus, showing both compassion and tact, tells the man his son will live. And it was so. Jesus stayed in Galilee for a while longer, then made His way to the synagogue in Capernaum. While there a man, possessed by a demon, began to make a scene, but Jesus cast the demon out and set the man free using only His words. After a few weeks of healing and teaching, Jesus came back to His hometown of Nazareth where He was met with a less-than-warm welcome.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

If we want to know, for sure, that we are a child of God who is eternally secure then receiving Jesus into our lives is the path we must take. When a person genuinely receives Jesus the difference is very evident far beyond any emotional experience. But receiving Jesus requires true, biblical faith that without such, it's impossible to please God. The good news is we don't have to earn Jesus, we simply say yes to His invitation and then get ready for the adventure to begin.
The most important decision one can make is declaring Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. If you want to say goodbye to sin and hello to righteousness and declare Jesus as your Lord then this is the episode for you. In addition, tune in to this episode to receive the Holy Spirit and be activated in power and authority.

Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Acts 11:26 from the King James Version.Episode 226: As more men and women came to faith in Jerusalem, more were beaten and thrown into jail. Because of this, many believers scattered across the Roman Empire setting as far as Cyprus and Antioch for safety. In these cities, the gospel began to break out from being a Jewish-only message, now Greeks and Hellenists were receiving Jesus too! The attitude of the believers in the city was so helpful that people began to refer to these followers as little Christs, a name that has stuck with us for generations.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.
