Jesus came to a world that fundamentally misunderstood Him and what He had come to accomplish. His parents, His closest friends, and His enemies all misunderstood His identity and purpose, and they often superimposed onto Him their own kingdoms' goals. And when it became clear that He had no intention of establishing their kingdoms, they either chose to submit and accept Him as King or refuse and revolt. Not much has changed in the 2000 plus years since Jesus walked the earth and the same choice faces each of us. He offers us the chance to be ambassadors of a much greater Kingdom, one which will last for eternity, but we must first forsake our own kingdoms and accept Jesus as our King. ABOUT THIS SERIES: The Gospel of John was written "that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing in Him you may have life in His Name" (John 20.30). The Apostle John, as an eyewitness and close friend of Jesus', desires for us to behold His beauty, love, and glory, and believe in His power and willingness to being forgiveness and life. As we journey through the Gospel of John, we will behold the life, teachings, works, and ministry of Jesus, and will hear straight from Him who He said He is, so that we would more deeply put our hope and trust in the Man who is God.
