This week in John 11:45-12:11, our passage points to the contrast between the spiritually blind who try to save themselves and Jesus as the true Saviour that unites all people to himself.

NOTE: Due to technical difficulties on Sunday, there are a couple of minutes of the sermon recording that are missing. You will notice a brief pause in the audio that indicates where the recording skips.
In John 11:1-44, Jesus's friend Lazarus dies. When Jesus hears the news, He maintains incredible restraint. Why? Let's look at the view of death Jesus holds and the hope He models for us.

This week's passage, John 10:22-42, demonstrates Jesus's character and true identity through His works.

The Bible makes many references to sheep and their Shepherd. In John 10:1-21, Jesus makes the claim that He is that good Shepherd - Jesus as a leader stands in contrast to the leaders of Israel. They either steal or act like hired hands, but Jesus knows, serves, loves and lays down his life for His sheep.

This week we are looking at John 9. This passage gives hope to the believer: God gives spiritual sight to those who believe that Jesus is the Son of Man.
