Plainfield Christian Church

Steve White preaches from John 14:6 on Sunday May 16, 2021. 13:10 "And you are clean, though not every one of you." 13:21 "One of you is going to betray me." 13:33 "...I will be with you only a little longer." "...where I am going you cannot follow me now." 13:38 "...before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times!" JOHN 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me." Be calm by maintaining an eternal perspective JOHN 14:2 "In my Father's house there are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I'm going to prepare a place for you." Be calm by remembering Jesus is coming back JOHN 14:3 "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am." Add notes Be calm by knowing the way home JOHN 14:4 "You know the way to where I am going." JOHN 14:5 "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?" JOHN 13:36 "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow me later." Peter asked, "Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you." JOHN 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." I am the Way in order for people to be saved. I am the Truth in order for people to be sure. "Mind, as it came from its Maker, is organized for truth, as the eye to perceive light, and the ear to hear sounds." -ARISTOTLE I am the Life that people may be strong.
