As Pastor Terry continues his introduction to the Gospel of John in today’s message, we can find assurance in its words. Jesus was more than just a good man who lived an inspirational life and taught parables that challenged the status quo. This book states that Jesus was and is God. He has existed since before time, and in Him all things were made. Yet, He loved us enough to take on flesh and bear our sin and shame, so that we could be restored to right relationship with Him.
