1: CONNECTIONS AND CONTRASTS (JOHN 3 & 4)
John 3:16-21 16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. 20 For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. 21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
2: THE MISSION OF JESUS
John 4:34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.
John 1:18 No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.
3: THE GRACE, MERCIES, AND LOVE OF JESUS
4: LIVING WATER > JACOB’S WELL
Isaiah 55:1-3 “Come, everyone who thirsts,come to the waters;and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. 2 Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food. 3 Incline your ear, and come to me; hear, that your soul may live; and I will make with you an everlasting covenant, my steadfast, sure love for David.
Jeremiah 2:12-13 Be appalled, O heavens, at this; be shocked, be utterly desolate, declares the Lord, 13 for my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water.
5: REVELATION OF JESUS
