Bartholomew: No Deceit
Christians don’t often get to hold press conferences about the Good News that we have to share with the world. Even so, we are sent to speak the truth in love in every situation. We go to tell the truth about an amazing thing: the love of God in Jesus Christ.

John 1:43-51 - This is Jesus: The Unlikely King from Nazareth (Part 2)
My friend—if you are skeptical of Jesus, listen to his own words, see what is revealed in this Gospel and believe in him. My friend—if you are unimpressed with Jesus, how can you be? How can you be bored with the Son of Man? You must repent. You need to be changed. You need to come to trust in the one that was lifted up to die. Brothers and sisters—we who believe in Jesus should be amazed at this man Jesus. He came down from heaven to be a man from Nazareth—despised, rejected, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, lifted up to die on our behalf. But, he is also the Son of Man, our Glorious King who comes again to bring all his ransomed people home. How can we not cry, “Hallelujah, what a Savior!”

John 1:43-51 - This is Jesus: The Unlikely King...from Nazareth (Part 1)
If you are an unbeliever this morning, here is my invitation to you—“Come and see who Jesus really is.” I challenge you to take a Gospel of John and to read it daily and sincerely. Come and see who Jesus is. Do not judge the truth by what you hear in the halls of academia, what you find on the shelves of Barnes & Noble or by what tickles your ears on television. Come and see this beautiful and mistreated Jesus Christ, who is God’s Chosen King. Come and see. And, if you are a believer this morning, here is my invitation to you—Come and see things upside down. Take up your cross and follow the unlikely king from Nazareth. Accept as a compliment the insult of being called today’s equivalent of “one from Nazareth.” Stake your life on the foolish weakness of a crucified Messiah. Rejoice when you are persecuted, reviled and slandered. Count it all joy when you meet trials of many kinds. Find comfort in many tribulations, for it is only through them that we may enter the Kingdom. As we will see in this Gospel, the lonely cross leads to a glorious crown.
