October 11, 2026
Week 4 John John 2:18-18, 23-24 The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?” 19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” 23 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. 24 But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. The Importance of a Sign… John is using “sign” in reference to Jesus doing what can only be done by God. • "sēmeion”: Focus on Significance of Event Used 17 times in the Gospel of John • "dynamis”: Focus on Miracle Itself • Jesus Came to Rescue Us • The Core Message: • New Life is a Necessity • New Life is Indispensable • God’s Love is Demonstratable • Believe in Jesus for New Life . New Life is Indispensable “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” “…so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.” • The Problem: sin is death to mind, body and spirit. • The Solution: Jesus is death to sin, new life to believers. • The Grace: Jesus is given to us before we believe. • II. God’s Love is Demonstrable • “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. • “Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son • Condemnation: a condition, not an accusation • God’s Love: His condition demonstrated through Jesus • III. Applications • Believe in Jesus for New Life • Turn to Jesus for the miracle of being made new • Turn away from using Jesus as improvement of the same life • Live this week out as a born-again believer, asking Jesus to shine His light on what needs to become new.
