Here we go again. The “Verily, verily” series that I have been learning about. I am trying to get through the book of John searching out the statements that Jesus made beginning with “Verily, verily” (as in the KJV). In other translations, the statements are begun by the words “truly, truly” or “I tell youContinue reading “John’s “Verily” Series: c. 6, v. 32″

John’s “Verily” Series: c.6, vs.26, 27
Welcome back to another post that focuses on the “Verily, verily” statements found in the Gospel of John. In John 6:22-59, we have four “verily, verily” statements. Jesus was focusing on one main idea in four different ways, and there is a shift halfway through them. We will find in this passage what exactly JesusContinue reading “John’s “Verily” Series: c.6, vs.26, 27″
Quiet Time
Did you know that having “quiet time” is very important principle that Jesus Himself exemplified for us? In Matthew 14: 22-23 ESV, “22 Immediately, he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. 23 And after he had dismissed the crowds, he wentContinue reading “Quiet Time”

I hope you have had an amazing week. It has been a busy, busy week. I think that Spring is that season of the year where many begin to “wake up” from the hibernation of the cold winter. We begin to perform our “To Do” list that we have been thinking about during the winterContinue reading “John’s “Verily” Series: ch.5 vs.24,25″
John’s “Verily” Series: John ch5 v19
The “Verily, verily” statement in this verse is “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, that the Son does likewise. (ESV)” As I said last week, the big idea of this passage is thatContinue reading “John’s “Verily” Series: John ch5 v19″
Allergy
I keep looking on the band on my arm that reads “ALLERGY”. It’s on a red band in big, bold letters. It is wrapped around my wrist along side my white identification band. I used to also have to wear a bright yellow band that read “FALL RISK”, but that one, thankfully, is no longerContinue reading “Allergy”

Dating My Son
Today, I decided to go on a date with my son. I am trying to do this once a month with each of my sons. My oldest one is super busy with “adulting”. However, my younger three are free for me to hang out with most days. I truly believe that kids, in general, needContinue reading “Dating My Son”
John’s “Verily” Series: ch.3 v.11
Here is yet another “Verily, verily” statement that Jesus made that John recorded. So far, we have read three “Verily, verily” statements, and we have learned that Jesus is the ‘ladder’ to heaven and that we must be born both physically and spiritually to enter into the Kingdom of God. In this next statement, JesusContinue reading “John’s “Verily” Series: ch.3 v.11″
