We’re doing a study here on Jesus meeting a Samaritan woman at the well. There are certain motivations that she had in her life. There are certain motivations we have in our life, even the sluggard in Proverbs has a motivation to do as little work as possible and second Timothy talks about many how they are motivated by pleasure, the things of this world. Many organizations and businesses exist to improve people’s qualities of life. That’s their mission. [...]

This morning we learn of Jesus going to Samaria to speak and witness to a woman at the well and in so doing He breaks several social barriers and prejudices. The Jews frowned upon the Samaritans but we see that Jesus doesn’t. In fact later in His ministry when He teaches on loving others He uses a Samaritan as an example, in contrast to the apathetic Jewish Levites and priests. [...]

As you know the major theme of John chapter 3 is the necessity of being born again and believing in Christ for eternal life. We remember from last week that Jesus did not come to condemn us but to rescue us because we’re already condemned. We are all under the wrath of God from birth. We see in our passage that Christians should follow the example set by Jesus and John and avoid competing with one another in the ministry, as born again Christians who are following Christ. [...]

A young man spent an entire evening describing to a young woman his deep love for her. He said he’d provide the greatest vacations for her. He told her he would go through fire for her.

He told her that he would visit her tomorrow if…

You must be born again – John 3:1-7

Image of the Gospel of John

America is a religious society and most in our nation consider themselves to be a good person who will go to heaven when they die. Likely the majority of those attending a church service this morning believe that God looks upon them with favor and that they will be with Him forever when they die. But we know that’s not the case. Those who read the Bible should understand that’s not the case.

The apostles were 12 men personally selected by Jesus to be trained and to build the church and they were used to write the new testament, except for Judas who fulfills the prophesy of a traitor.
