He is here today, but we give you glory and we give you Lord our Hallelujah the highest praise that we can give you the Wii release ourselves to you. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord. Hallelujah. Thank you Jesus. This is our talk in church time. We've been that we eat. We haven't done this in a while and I thought that we might do it today. What is it mean to talk in church and means that we get a chance to minister to each other a man. I was going to ask you break you up into different rooms and have a talk together with each other, but we'll do that at a different time. Here's a question that I have for each one of you we're going to take a minute and have you speak about it. But here's the question. What do you think? Is the intent or the goal of the Book of John? What do you think might be the intent or the goal or the purpose of the Book of John a man before you answer meditate on that scripture meditate on that scripture meditate when you when we go back to see all of our pictures. That's what I would like for you to give me some answers. Amen.

What's your thought?

What's your thought I'm going to unmute everybody.

What's your thought why? Why did John write this book?

I believe that John wrote the book basically.

Give Testament testimonies. blushing

covid, the price of the teaching of his gospel is what it is.

1 wise man told me The Book of Job was written for other people

the gospel of us to learn Jesus was trying to teach.

Amman someone else

Okay, this is Sandra. I've been having I've been having with my computer. I've been having black screen, but I don't see nobody and I can hear you. Can you hear me? Yes, and we can also so we can see you also I receiving I can't answer the question Instagram.

Hey, tell you what. Was the Last Supper.

And then like I said, no man, I ain't going to believe it's for the nail place in his side. So you're saying that the The Book of John is written to tell the future. All right. Amen. Amen. Welcome Adam and Candice Jane welcome. Like I can see your sound on. All right, anybody else? Anybody else? Want to try men there? I'm trying to let us know that Jesus is God and Jesus existed that is existing before Creation with God and that Jesus Took on human form and came down to earth and that he is everything that we knew he is the truth and everything.

a man John relates Jesus to not only being God. But human a man, thank you. All of you. That was wonderful. I'll always enjoy our talk in church segment a man. The word of God says the Book of John was written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ the son of God and that believing you may have life and his name when you look at the beginning of John one of the things that we see always when you were writing you write a thesis you write what your purpose of writing is, there's a statement of truth that you are to to stay and you are to prove and you are to discuss throughout your writing and we see that in and of course documentary talked about the pre-existent one that he was the word in the world. With God in the world war god a man we could be I could even push married to talk about it in the creek, but I won't put it on a lance. So so this is another example that we have all the way from verse for number 1 2 verse 14 that talks about Jesus being in the flesh jumping over the Revelation real life in the Jesus and the words to sheer sheer is John statement. This book three things for rent that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ the son of God and that believing you may have life in his name. If I were to pick up a sermon title today, it would be fearful to say so a man better yet show up and be a man show up and believe and we just want to change that. We're going to see in this in the in the beginning reading at Richmond Road is that they have some Jesus disciples the meaning behind closed doors. If we were to look at verse 29 will see that we don't hide behind closed doors unless you're afraid of something we are close to her hiding behind closed doors because of covid-19 not giving out in the highways and byways and so fear is respectful fear is good to be in closed doors not to get a disease. What's up can be Afraid of broaching the doorpost because of fear of dying we are to be afraid of time. You see Jesus in their spouses and making faithful disciples. Why because he is about to implement and execute his church is about to bring his church needs his disciples all to believe he needs his disciples to understand that he is the Son of God. He is the great I am the one who has the Redeemer the resurrection of a life. So he begins by comforting them letting you know bfp and then commission exam on the Holy Spirit of Palmdale getting ready for Pentecost Hallelujah.

God's Church growth and development The question that I have for you is are you a weak link? Are you fearful or are you Faithful? Will you show up when nobody else does? Amberly let's pray and here's what I want you to pray about. I want you to pray and ask God.

To help you recognize any surf unless that you might have inside your heart only God knows that I'm not asking you to whatever fears you have, but maybe there's some cheerfulness inside. Maybe there's some facelessness inside of a man. Maybe you've been speaking some stinking thinking have some faulty philosophy rolling around in there the way that you look at the way that you look at the church the way that you looked at you manatee. ascot to increase your faith Blitzkrieg followers ask a guy that you would help us to recognize our own sense of fear fear for Less in this season of Our Lives for praying father that Lord where there is a lack of faith that you would help us to recognize that lack of faith and then recognize God that you are the only one that would change to can increase your faith in God. That's when we have faulty philosophies when we are not committed when we're not loyal when we're not dedicated when we're not wanting to read scripture into prayer to end to connect to your body father. We pray father that you would help us to recognize father that we might have some salty thinking stinking socks. And then help us father to be able to increase her face wherever we are on the Continuum of Faith weather is little face or much face father. We all have room to grow its the Lord. I pray father that you would help us in Jesus name. I do pray that you would decrease me and Laura speak only true me God let nothing that Deborah has to say but only what you have to say to speak to all of us got Lord's encourage your ears to lean in and curves right years to Incline and courage or ears to Lorde what to hear the gospel in Jesus name, we pray amen and we're going to be in chapter 20 verses 24 through 3124 through 31.

Now Thomas called the twin. One of the 12 was not with them when Jesus came. The other disciples therefore said to him we have seen the Lord. So he said to them unless I see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails and put my hand into his side. I will not believe.

Call JJ's his disciples were again inside and Thomas with them. Jesus came the doors being shot and stood in the mist and said peace to you. Then. He said to Thomas. Put your finger here. And look at my hands I reach her hand here and put it into my side. Do not be an unbelieving but believing do not be an unbelieving. Stop Believing

and Thomas answered and said to him my Lord and My God Jesus Thomas because you have seen me. You have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believe and truly Jesus did many other sign. In the presence of his disciples which are not written in this book, but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ the son of God. And that believing you may have life in his name. Show up. Amber Lee Thomas install to be the Quinn or the brother of Matthew and James he is thought to be a transparent pessimist rather than deposit.

be willing to go with Jesus to the cross and I Rosenstein the possibility our Resurrection We don't know a whole lot about Thomas. But we do know that. We like to call him the doubting Thomas the time Thomas that needed a little bit of proof that Jesus wore was just not enough for Thomas is Jesus word enough. Are you? Will you show up and believer? Do you need a little bit more poop? Do you need to stick your hands hands?

c4yourself where Jesus was Rob Thomas was a fearful. Where are we? And this road on this road on this journey, where are we with respect to our belief when we show up and believe it will be or will we be late and arrival in Jesus got to come?

UC faulty philosophy leaves to reluctance and a demanding requirements are stinking thinking will cause us to believe it on Troost rather than the truth philosophy will cause us to put our own rather than believing the report of the looks are felting who actively are stinking thinking or Wally freshly stuff will come close to put the man's Obama demands on his church Brothers in leaning and depending on God. How is it that Thomas stop? You see here at salty reason Thomas was absent you seen when Jesus first appear to the disciples. So he had problems believe me the report. She couldn't just believe their reports. He couldn't put his arms around something that he would allow his mind to imagine. He could put his arms around sausage Jesus suddenly appeared as sold himself and reported yesterday. He said he gets his range requirements. He said,

People that PCS and touches the requirement we have excuses after excuses after excuses of why we can't do this why we can't do this is why we can't do that. We have a long time to respond to me where the money's going to get. Come on come up before god and goddess saying to each one of us. That we need to check our face. What is it that we believe it isn't faulty thinking that's leading to faulty requirements that's causing you and I do miss the very presence of God. We want to please pray for believers. If it's Jesus That Makes Us Faithful you see there was some more stations that happened. Thomas shows up the door shut and then Jesus suddenly appears. I don't know about you, but a Jesus told him I don't need your touch him. I don't need to talk him. I don't need you.

We got to get to a place where Rihanna Spanish Jesus Will suddenly coming to a person and what's going through your heart in a in a very heartwarming what she meant put something on the on a billboard giving you a message. Are you really willing to the war boys will be ratified in the world? Because she needs a stranger danger that you cannot even tell a stranger that you like and you would know that, you know that, you know that you know that we can only come from God appear. Do you know that Jesus can suddenly appear? you and I Jesus and challenges Thomas on his very requirement. I like it. If I don't know about you. I will let everybody feel like if that's what you need if that's what you mean to believe. I will show you my word that was so you got Stars. I will show you whatever it is that you need to see to believe in me to get to that place. What is it that God has isn't it enough that he died on the cross isn't it enough that? He was sort of rejected by Flex.

Gloria My Heart Lord become personal to you YouTube we can call him Lord we can call him God but it doesn't necessarily mean that he's personal to us, but Thomas the twin he makes a very clear distinction controller with third-party person that's sitting on the side that was different from him yet. Just curious and mysterious.

God family Gospel Mission. Top commandment. What is it the God have to do for you to really sincerely a physically genuinely cares about life-changing.

Talking with you in church, and we can fold their arms so we can say hallelujah praise God, but we're still on the outside looking in. amen, amen

God the Father to do his will.

God wants us to ask ourselves. Where's the steering alert? Where's the faceless look like where is a faulty sinking in our life?

What kind of reluctance do we have? And what kind of requirements are we putting on God himself before? We really connect to the Lord.

Are you?

Are you Fearless? Are you Faithful? Are you. Words? Are you that kind of believer who's willing to fall to your knees? Declaring the God is your god and your Lord. Are you Phyllis? Will you be faithful? Will you read the word of God knowing that God is The Sovereign Lord ruler the bust of your life?

Who desires your full commitment to him even if it means? your deaf you see the Bible says blessed. Are those who have not seen and yet have to leave.

Can we as a community of believers? Say that. We have seen we have not seen but we believe we have believe the report of the Lord will believe this scripture. We believe the stories. We don't believe the testimony will sing and sing with their eyes are moving at the moment. You know, we haven't seen the scars on Jesus, but we have seen the manifestation of what even looks like. It's Breathing heavily present Jesus in other people's lives.
