2026 THEME: Still the ONE!
Title: Anything Goes?
Scripture: John 14:1-6; 6:16-21
I. THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT…
This “I AM” statement of Jesus takes the (COEXIST) sign and the (all roads lead to heaven) belief and tosses them to the garbage heap.
II. THE TRUTH REVEALED IN A MIRACLE
This miracle demonstrates (Christ’s deity) by revealing His power over (the laws of nature).
Using the metaphor of Jesus walking on the water, He is walking on our rough seas. He sees us struggling and comes into our boat. Sometimes He comes (quickly). Sometimes He (lingers) and
(waits). But He (is never later).
It doesn’t matter how “seasoned” we might be in our faith; how long or how short we have been following Jesus; Jesus will step in when He deems it the time to do so. (Trust His heart).
Two purposes to this miracle:
-
-
-
-
-
- It shows Jesus rules ever realm, including creation or (calming a storm).
- Mark’s gospel shows the disciple had not yet grasped (who Jesus really was).
