Sunday Sermon | Christ's Prayer for All Who Will Believe | John | Part 30

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 17:20-26. A primary theme we see in the last section of the high priestly prayer of the Lord Jesus Christ is the idea of unity, of which Psalm 133 paints a beautiful picture. The unity Jesus Christ prays for is not a negotiated unity, but an other-worldly, unnatural, unexpected unity; something associated with the newness the Lord brings to every individual within the body. One of the things we see in this unity is its simple, resilient functionality. Redemption is often described as an unbreakable union. A union of His people that is used to bring all believers to Christ.

Sunday Sermon | Christ's Prayer for the Apostles | John | Part 29

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 17:6-19. In this passage we see that the Lord Jesus has three priorities. The first priority is simply this idea that those to whom Christ spoke and offered redemption would know that the source of everything He has said, every promise He has made, every admonition, have as their source the Father in heaven. Secondly, we see that the Lord has a priority of guarding His people. The reality is life is dangerous for those who follow Jesus, for those who are committed to Him and His word. The third priority is sanctification and growing in holiness. It’s reasonable for us, as His redeemed, to understand His priorities. Our focus should not be on the danger from which we are guarded or on our sanctification but on God Himself. As we walk toward God, these other things will fall into place.

Sunday Sermon | What is Eternal Life? | John | Part 28

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 17:1-5. The entirety of John 17 is a prayer that Jesus is praying in the disciples’ hearing. What is eternal life? To know God and to know His Son. Belief and knowing do not mean the same thing. The salvation of the elect is the fruit of the trinitarian relationship. There is a difference between bearing fruit as a result of a relationship and bearing fruit for the creation of a relationship; a subtle but profound difference. This is important when we consider our relationship with God.

Sunday Sermon | The Disciples' Enhanced Relationship with Christ | John | Part 27

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 16:16-33. In verse 16, in the last hours, we see the Lord Jesus Christ speaks of “in a little while”, a reference to the cross, the tomb, and the resurrection. We see the Lord Jesus encouraging His disciples. He has overcome and is bringing peace, in the context of a raging battle. This discourse reminds us that there are seasons of grace in our lives where we can take in and embrace the truths of God, storing them up for times of affliction when it’s hard to invest and take in these truths.

Sunday Sermon | The Work of the Holy Spirit | John | Part 26

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 16:1-15. In John 16, we see an introduction to a Christian spiritual life. In particular, we see highlighted the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is front and center to the true spiritual life of those who are redeemed. The spiritual aspects of our lives are sometimes seen as less valuable and less consequential than the physical. In John 16, the apostles were required to confirm that spiritual has priority over the physical. As we enter into our relationship with the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of Christ, and come to more fully understand the things of God, we will recognize that the physical characteristics and aspects of our lives will begin to take second place. If you’re waiting for your physical circumstances to get better before involving yourself in spiritual maturity, it’s not going to happen, because God doesn’t work that way. We receive spiritual understanding and maturity on His terms, not ours.

Sunday Sermon | What Does it Look Like to Follow Christ? | John | Part 25

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 15:18-16:4. In chapters 14-17, what we have are the most profound words of Christ as He passes on to the spiritual army the orders and expectations for the continuation of the Holy war. In John 15 and 16 the most notable illustration is that of warfare. The on-the-ground general, Lord Jesus Christ, is telling the fighters who will remain what to expect and how to fight; He will die in the fight but the fight will rage on and only end when He returns. You are not entering into the commission in which you were drafted if not daily using your spiritual weapons.

Sunday Sermon | What Does it Mean to Abide in Christ? | John | Part 24

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 15:1-7. The question at hand is simply what does it mean to abide in Christ? Often when we think of abiding, there is an inclination to draw attention to the union with Christ. But what we see in the term “abiding” in this chapter, particularly in verse 4, is that it is a verb, a directive to those already in union with Christ. To abide in Christ means we can participate in and look forward to: being grafted in, friendship, safety, revelation, comfort, correction, worship, adoration, and eagerly waiting. To abide and flourish we must believe and apply His truths.

Sunday Sermon | Abiding in Christ and Bearing Fruit | John | Part 23

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 15:1-17. Doing the works of Christ is the purpose of all believers (John 14:12). God honoring productivity is not a New Testament idea. The first command God gave Adam and Eve, be fruitful and multiply, sounded a lot like John 15. God’s intention for creation was not only to have children but that they involve themselves in the work of the earth - cultivating and creating. This fruitfulness was in the context of abiding with God. In John 15, we see that the recovery of communion with Christ brings a recovery of God honoring productivity (fruitfulness). Both physical and spiritual productivity was necessary and expected as fruit bearing is the essence of glorifying God and enjoying Him forever. Another thing we see in this passage is that the abiding work that the lord Jesus is calling us to is the consequence of prayer. We should ask ourselves, “Is the work I do a result of prayer? Am I willing to ask the Lord to help me with all the things I think, say, and do with my hands?”

Sunday Sermon | Christ's Commitment to His People While Awaiting His Return | John | Part 22

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 14:8-24. As we look at this gospel, and in the book of Acts, we can marvel how people missed Jesus as the messiah. No one can identify Jesus on their own - only God can open our eyes to the truths of Christ. The spiritual realities of our conversion is recorded clearly in scripture: man doesn’t find God, God finds man. No one can come unless the Father draws him. Chapter 14 has an idea of comfort, in the way Isaiah cried out “Comfort my people”, directly associated with the Messiah, with the greatest of all needs of mankind. We also see the introduction of the Holy Spirit as helper and the concept of prayer. Jesus tries to help His disciples understand that something better was coming than Jesus being with them physically. He was going to the Father to involve Himself in another aspect of the spiritual warfare on earth but was leaving with them the Holy Spirit.

Sunday Sermon | Jesus: The Way, The Truth, The Life | John | Part 21

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner continues the series on the Gospel of John. John 14:1-7. The Lord Jesus Christ tells the apostles "Let not your hearts be troubled." They didn't know and wanted to know where He was going; they were struggling and Jesus had a gentle rebuke and profound encouragement in these seven verses. We live in troubling times; most satisfied with "micro events" of peace. We may find we are building our lives on these events, which, though wonderful, are not true, enduring peace. Christ has intended that our peace be in Him, now.
