Jesus is:
This series examines who Jesus is by studying the Gospel of John.
This message focuses on John 1:1-18. Jesus is the incarnate Word who became flesh. Jesus is not a created being; rather, all things came into being through Him. He is the one-of-a-kind Son of the Father who is himself God. Though Jesus is called the Son, he was not created nor born. He is called the Son because he shares the exact attributes of the Father and the nature of their relationship is that of a Father and Son.

08 — The Saviour of the World
Speaker: Ian Brinksman
2013 Mar 03 Outline Study Guide Group Material YouTube
This message presents Jesus as the Saviour of the world through His encounter with the Samaritan woman, demonstrating His willingness to cross social, ethnic, and religious barriers to reach those who were despised or marginalized. It emphasizes that while people often seek fulfillment through culture, religion, or relationships, true inner satisfaction comes only through the living water that Jesus offers. The message highlights how Jesus neither condemned the woman nor ignored her spiritual need, but instead revealed Himself as the Messiah and offered her a lasting solution to her deepest longing. Her transformation led her to share her experience with others, and the Samaritans came to recognize Jesus as the Saviour not only of Jews but of the whole world.
09 — The Initiator of New Testament Worship
Speaker: Ian Brinksman
2013 Mar 10 Outline Group Material YouTube
This sermon presents Jesus as the initiator of a new kind of worship, using His conversation with the Samaritan woman to show that God’s love reaches beyond cultural, moral, and religious barriers. It explains that the woman’s search for satisfaction could not be fulfilled by relationships or religious traditions, and that Jesus offered the true answer to her spiritual thirst. The message contrasts humanity’s focus on religions, sacred places, and external differences with Jesus’ teaching that worship is no longer centered on a location but on a relationship with God. True worship, according to the sermon, is worship “in spirit and truth,” available anywhere and expressed through both personal intimacy with God and participation in corporate worship.
