John 1:1-5

SERIES: The Gospel of John The Gospel Par Excellence SPEAKER: Michael P. Andrus Introduction:  Today we begin a new series on the Gospel of John.  After a lifetime of study of this book, one scholar calls it “the most amazing book ever written.  It is a pool in which a child can wade and an elephant can swim.” [i]  It is both simple and profound.  It meets the spiritual need of the unbeliever, the brand-new Christian, and the one with many years of maturity.  It has been…

John 1:10-18

SERIES: The Gospel of John The Visit SPEAKER: Michael P.

Hebrews 2:5-18

What is Mankind? For the past several Sundays we have been studying about angels.  Our goal has been to discover how significant angels are to us, not that we might honor the angels but rather that we might honor Jesus Christ, who is so much greater than even the angels.  As we come to our text today, we find that the author is not quite through with angels; in fact, they are mentioned four more times in Hebrews 2:5‑18.            It is not…
