Welcome to Bethany Bible Church

John 20:31 – ​​31 But these are written so that you may continue to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing in him you will have life by the power of his name.

Who Jesus Is:

• “I am the Bread of Life” (John 6:35)
• “I am the Light of the World” (John 8:12)
• “I am the Good Shepherd” (John 10:11) 
• “I am the Resurrection and the Life” (John 11:25) 

I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.

Jesus is not one of the ways to God, He is the only way.

John 13:36-37 – Simon Peter asked, “Lord, where are you going?”

And Jesus replied, “You can’t go with me now, but you will follow me later.” 37 “But why can’t I come now, Lord?” he asked. “I’m ready to die for you.”

John 13:38 – Jesus answered, “Die for me? I tell you the truth, Peter—before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me

John 14:1 – “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. 

John 14:2-3 – 2 There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? 3 When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. 

John 14:4-5 – 4 And you know the way to where I am going.” 5 “No, we don’t know, Lord,” Thomas said. “We have no idea where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

John 14:6-7 – 6 Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. 7 If you had really known me, you would know who my Father is. From now on, you do know him and have seen him!”

John 14:8 – 8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied.”

John 14:9-11 – 9 Jesus replied, “Have I been with you all this time, Philip, and yet you still don’t know who I am? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking me to show him to you? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I speak are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me. 11 Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of the work you have seen me do.

Hebrews 1:3 – The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven.

John 14:12-14 – 12 “I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. 13 You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, so that the Son can bring glory to the Father. 14 Yes, ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it!

Jesus is:
The way for our wandering hearts
The truth for our searching minds
The life for our weary souls
