John 8: If you continue
Jesus had a major smackdown with the Pharisees, in which they exchange insults. It escalates to a point where Jesus finally just replies “I AM that I AM” – meaning that He is claiming to be the God who spoke to Moses (Exodus 3:14).
In the middle of that exchange, Jesus addresses those who have come to believe in Him during this discussion. He says “If you continue in My word, you are my disciples indeed. And you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
This sermon explores what it means to “continue in My word.”

Yeah, closing with a Yoda quote? That hits the nerd in me. :)
Thanks for that link. It was some very solid teaching: humble in its approach, plenty of application for a broad audience, and even the tangents were exegetically sound.
James,
Thanks much (blush). You are too generous. Critical feedback to make my preaching better? (be gentle ;).
Whoa! I didn't even realize that was you when I wrote that. I guess I should have put it together a bit…
I really wasn't listening with a "feedback" sort of ear. I'll listen again for sure. Do you want me to give you that here or via email? If the latter, just shoot me an email at my super secret encoded email.
Thanks again, and keep running well, with an eye on the One who went before. :)
