John 18:1-27
It is the night of Passover, one of the most significant Jewish feasts, and Jesus has led his disciples to the Garden of Gethsemane. Now, the clock begins to speed up: his hour is upon him. Three surprising betrayals overtake Jesus as he heads toward the cross. This week, we’ll look at each betrayal as a way to help us understand not only our own sin but also the glory of Christ’s redeeming work. “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it” (John 1:5).
From Series: "Gospel of John: Jesus, Our Great High Priest"
This Sunday we return to the Gospel of John to see our great High Priest at work. First, in his prayer. And then in his atoning work on the cross. Over the spring we’ll walk with Jesus through the final hours of his earthly life and then experience the joy (and confusion) of his disciples when they discover that he has risen from the dead. Along the way we’ll gain a greater understanding of the heart of Jesus for you and me, as well as the goal of his redeeming work that stretches as far as the curse is found.
