概要

Pastor Matt launched a 10-week journey through the Gospel of John, part of a larger series covering John, Acts, and Romans - three books he considers essential for understanding the Christian life. He explained that John's Gospel is 93% unique material that supplements the other Gospels, with the purpose stated in John 20:31: "that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name."

The sermon focused on John 1:1-34, beginning with the prologue that establishes Jesus as the eternal Word who "was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1). Pastor Matt then examined John the Baptist's declaration of Jesus as "the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world" (John 1:29), connecting this title to Old Testament imagery of sacrificial lambs and the Day of Atonement. He explained how Jesus fulfills both the sacrificial goat (whose blood covers sin) and the scapegoat (who carries sin away), emphasizing that our greatest problem isn't our circumstances but our sin. Pastor Matt concluded by explaining that salvation is received as a gift through faith, not achieved through works, and called for honest self-reflection about one's relationship with Jesus.
