― Charles R. Swindoll , Living Insights: John

2 " Dear God, I know that my sin has put a barrier between You and me. Thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus, to suffer the penalty of my sin by dying in my place so that barrier would be removed. I trust in Jesus alone for the forgiveness of my sins. "

― Charles R. Swindoll , Living Insights: John

3 " In doing that, I also accept His free gift of eternal life, which is mine forevermore by Your grace. Thank You. In Jesus’ name, Amen. "

4 " The offering had been meager, the miracle dramatic, and the provision abundant, but the lesson was not yet complete. "

5 " The size of a challenge should never be gauged in terms of our capability. What we have to offer will never be enough. God never calls us to provide; that’s His responsibility. Instead, He calls us to commit whatever we have—even if it’s no more than a sack lunch. His call comes with a promise: "

6 " Jesus once again brought His abundant power to the rescue of human inadequacy, turning an impossible situation into an opportunity to strengthen the confidence of His believers. "

7 " Envy has empty hands and wants them full. Jealousy has full hands and never wants them empty. Envy languishes in self-pity because it doesn’t have what others have. Jealousy rants in paranoia because it fears losing what it feels unworthy to own. "

8 " Matthew says, “This is the Messiah, the King; worship Him.” Mark says, “This is the Servant who served humanity; follow Him.” Luke says, “This is the only Man among men without sin; emulate Him.” John says, “This is God in human flesh; believe in Him. "

9 " John says, in effect, “In the beginning, God the Son created humanity and filled them with life. He then came to earth as a human to bring life again to humanity, which is spiritually dead because of sin. "

10 " John could have intended a double meaning. In the end, darkness was not able to suppress the Light even by placing the Light in a tomb. However, "

11 " the verses that follow appear to stress the mental deficiency of the darkness: its unwillingness to believe and therefore its inability to comprehend. Then, as the story of Jesus unfolds, John will show that truth is nonsense to a mind darkened by sin (8: "

12 " Lord, I recognize You as the Owner of my temple. I willingly submit to the authority of Your Word. I confess that I have allowed the corruption of ______________________ to take up space that is reserved for worshiping You. I freely admit that I do not have the power to remove it on my own. "

― Charles R. Swindoll , Living Insights: John

13 " Please cleanse me, even if I must endure hardship or suffer affliction in the process. Grant me the courage to remain steadfast as You work. Grant me patience to endure the process and provide extra encouragement when my patience wears thin. Then let me rejoice when Your temple is again pure. I make the same request as David did so many years ago: Create in me a clean heart, O God (Ps. 51: "

14 " Now that Christ has come, belief or unbelief is no longer a crisis of the intellect (if it ever was); it is a "

― Charles R. Swindoll , Living Insights: John

15 " crisis of the will. When a darkened mind chooses to remain in darkness, no one is to blame but the individual making that choice. "

― Charles R. Swindoll , Living Insights: John

16 " The Word didn’t become flesh to establish a new religion. He became one of us to restore a broken relationship. He came to restore the true worship of God, which doesn’t presume to earn His blessing through good deeds but rejoices in the unmerited favor He delights to give. Unfortunately, the roots of pride run deep into our flesh; therefore, the ability to accept grace does not come naturally, only supernaturally. "

17 " Jess Moody, A Drink at Joel’s Place (Waco, TX: Word Books, 1967), 80–81. The Claims of the Christ JOHN 5:19-30 NASB 19 Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever [a]the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner. 20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself is doing; and the Father will show Him greater works than these, so that you will marvel. 21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even "

18 " But have eternal life.” We are destined to die physically and we exist in a kind of living death in the meantime. While nothing will halt the process of decay, and nothing will prevent the end of physical life, God’s grace will not allow death to reign supreme. Evil will not have the final word. Life—eternal, incorruptible, abundant life—is offered to all who will receive it through faith. "

― Charles R. Swindoll , Living Insights: John

19 " What grace! Jesus reveals the true nature of God. He longs to see His creation saved from the just penalty of sin to thrive forever in His presence. Therefore, the Son of God came to earth to save all humanity from judgment. What hope! "
