Book of John

First I want to thank God for all the blessings he's given me, I truly don't deserve any but that's just how great the Living God is. I've started studying the Book of John. I'm not talking about just reading it, I'm talking about rollin up the sleeves and really getting knee deep in the Word. I highly recommend this to everyone. Don't just read, study. If you need a good study bible, I highly recommend The MaCarthur Study Bible. Studying your Bible will definitely open your eyes and open your heart and mind to the Living God. The Book of John looks at Jesus through the perspective of his Deity and man is He an awesome God! Just look at the first 18 versus in the first chapter. I won't write out the versus but will list the location so you can check it out yourself. In the first 18 versus 6 basic truths are revealed about Jesus.....

John 1:1-3 Shows the external Christ
John 1:4-5 The incarnate Christ
John 1:6-8 The forerunner of Christ which was John the Baptist
John 1:9-11 The unrecognized Christ
John 1:12-13 The omnipotent Christ
John 1:14-18 The Glorious Christ

We see the humility of John the Baptist in John 1:27 "It is he who, coming after me, is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose".

We see Jesus' first miracle at the wedding in Cana when he turned the water into wine, we see the passion for reverance when he cleansed the Temple, and he makes reference to his resurrection in chapter 2:19 "Destroy this temple and in 3 days I'll raise it up.

All this in just the first two chapters. Don't just read, study Gods Word. Like it says in Job 23:12 "Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food."

God has blessed me with three wonderful children Christina, Mary and Jake and a beautiful wife Teresa. I'm not a preacher, just an everyday guy with the desire to share Jesus Christ.
