John 18:1-9 are the verses we are studying in this podcast. We will look at Christ’s scourging and a portion of His trial before Pilate. I think what Pilate said to the crowd is a very good summery of this lesson. He said, “Behold the man” and that is what we will do in this study. We will look at Jesus and a portion of His suffering as He is on His way to Calvary for our sake and salvation.

The Gospel of John 15:7-13 are the verses we will study today. This is a continuation of Jesus’ discourse on what it means to abide in Him.

So listen, be blessed and grow in Christ.

In today’s podcast we will close out chapter eight of the Gospel of John and begin chapter nine. The climax of our Lord’s teaching in chapter eight is verse 58 where Jesus declared, “before Abraham was born, I am!” This is another bold statement where Jesus claimed to be Almighty God. In this portion of Scripture we will see the conclusion of this confrontation between Jesus and His religious, though spiritually dead antagonists. This is a very interesting account to study.

John 8:12-28 is the section of Scripture we will study today. The central theme of these verses is our Lord’s bold declaration, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” We will learn what Jesus meant when He said He was the light of the world and what that means to those who are true followers of Jesus. We will also learn what it means for those who refuse to walk in the light of Jesus.

A VISION BY GENERAL WILLIAM BOOTH On one of my recent journeys, as I gazed from the coach window, I was led into a train of thought concerning the conditions of the multitudes around me. They were living carelessly in the most open and shameless rebellion against God, without a thought for their eternal
We begin today a new section on Radical Abiding in our continuing study on The Radical Jesus. To abide in Christ is mandatory part of being a true follower of Jesus. To help us grasp the nature of abiding we will go on a strange journey by first looking at water baptism so that we can understand why Jesus was baptized. This will then open way for us to see just how radical abiding in Christ actually is according to Scripture.

We have been doing an in depth investigation into the Radical Jesus for over seven months and this will be our last week studying the section on radical faith. One of the primary points of today’s lesson is to help us understand the necessity of returning to the roots of our faith that was seen in the primitive church of the first century. God is a miracle working God and He is waiting for people to rise up to the great need of the hour which is for the saints to operate through great faith. The need is great so the remedy must be greater. A tame Christianity will not capture the heart and mind of the world. We need a signs and wonders, New Testament faith. Then the world will take note and learn that there is a God and that His name is Jesus.

In our second week in our study on radical faith we will begin by examining the great faith of the Roman Centurion. In this account there are some powerful truths about faith and how it works. We will then look at the great need in our day for the people of God to arise to the desperate need of the hour to live out lives of great faith. Whenever the church lives by great faith the world takes notice. God is a miracle working God that still does miracles today. Will we be the people He can do miracles through? Will we live out the radical nature of true faith or will we let Jesus pass us by?

We are beginning a new section in our continuing study on The Radical Jesus titled Radical Sacrifice. Today’s lesson will concentrate upon the eternal dimension of Christ’s sacrifice which will reveal another aspect of His tremendous love for mankind. This section on radical sacrifice makes a smooth transition from our last topic which was on radical compassion. It is just the reality of the world in which we live that whenever compassion is shown to those in need there is sacrifice involved. This study is sure to challenge you, so give a listen and grow in your knowledge of God.

For the last two weeks we have been studying the radical nature of divine compassion and I will address this subject again today to bring some practical application. We will look at a couple of Christ’s parables that address the issue of compassion and how true followers of Jesus should be living out compassion on a daily basis. We will see the great privilege that is bestowed upon genuine believers to be Christ’s ambassadors to a world in rebellion against Him. This is a very high calling and is extremely important for us to understand. To this we are called.

This is our second week studying the radical nature of holiness. In this lesson we will see how holiness is central to salvation. Only holy people will make heaven their home. Now if only the holy will go to heaven then the all-important question is how do unholy people become holy and what does that holy life look like? This is what we will investigate today.

In today’s podcast we are beginning a new section in our continuing study on The Radical Jesus. This section is titled Radical Holiness and we will be on this topic for three weeks. I love the holiness of God and I love preaching on it as well. The divine holiness is actually what makes people and angels worship God. It is also what makes people to be awestruck by the Lord. Today we will look at why God’s holiness is so radical and why we have such a difficult time understanding it.
