"John saw Jesus coming and said: 'Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.'" Jn 1: 23 NKJV It might be the most remarkable statement in the entire Bible. And how astonishing that John knew this, the moment he saw Jesus, when all the rest of the world could not see it--disciples included! Jesus had come to be the sacrificial lamb that takes away the is of the world.  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

"The voice of one crying in the wilderness: 'make straight the way of the Lord'." Jn 1: 23 John the Baptist was a remarkable man! Filled with the Spirit even before he was born! (Lk 1:41) Jesus insisted there'd been "no one greater". (Mt 11: 11) And yet you would never know it, listening to John speak! To him, Jesus was everything, and he himself ws only a 'voice'! What a perfect example of the true Christian! This morning, let's learn from this wonderful spokesman for Christ.   Message by Pastor Rod Schorr Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series on the Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

"The Word became flesh and dwelt among us." Jn 1: 14  There is no statement in all the Bible more important than this one: "the Word became flesh and dwelt among us." It is the fulfillment of everything said and done in the Old Testament. This was God's purpose ever since the Fall! And how wonderful to know that it was His purpose for you!  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

"...and the world did not know Him..." John 1: 10 There is no one in all the world more deluded than the agnostic, and no one in greater peril! At least the atheist knows he is taking an openly defiant position! But the agnostic? He clings to the notion of an "innocent ignorance". Our Scripture this morning makes it clear: there is really no such thing.  Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA From his series:       The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie.
