Heavenly Promises John 14:1–6
John, chapter 14, a very familiar portion of Scripture. But don’t go to sleep on me because I want to open it up in a way that I trust will be fresh and helpful to you. John, chapter 14. Now just a reminder – and for those of you haven’t been with us in past Sundays, maybe this is the setting that you need.
Our Lord had lived His life fully, three years of ministry, and now we find Him in the final week of His life. He will be crucified on Friday in the afternoon. He will be the Sacrificial Lamb who takes away the sin of the world, killed at the very time the Jews were killing sacrificial lambs on the Passover that Friday. We find Him however in this section of John’s history of His life in the upper room on Thursday night. This is His last night with His disciples. This is His valedictory address to them. This is where He gives His final words to His own men, the apostles.
