The God-Man - Audio

In this sermon for the Fifth Sunday of Easter, Pastor Chris explores Jesus’ claim to be equal with God. Jesus makes this claim through conversation with his disciples in John chapter 14 when he first tells his disciples that he will prepare a place for them in his Father’s house. Jesus then tells his disciples that he is the only way to his Father, and finally he claims to fully represent his Father. Together, these claims place Jesus at an equal place with his Father, which means he’s claiming to be God. Pastor Chris explores what this means for Christians and the broader world, and makes the first point that all are welcome in the house hold of God through Jesus, who has come to remake the world through his death and resurrection. Second, Jesus brings us into God’s presences, and shows us God because he is God. This radically changes the type of relationship we can have with God, and how we can know God.
