Leaning on Jesus

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. -Matthew 28:18-20 (KJV) We must teach people to trust in God's word and live through its verses. We must teach people that God is somebody and can be touched with our voices and hearts. We must teach people that the Bible is not just our anchor, but the window God has given us to glimpse the lives of others that cast all their cares upon Him. John leaned on Jesus's breast at the Last Supper. There were other disciples present, but never was it mentioned that any of them were able to press as close to Him that night as John. Loving God begins at salvation, but then like David wrote in Psalm 63, "my soul followeth hard after thee." In Leaning on Studies in Life through the Gospel of John, Reverend Walker provides outlines of practical discipleship lessons, chapter by chapter, that focus on day-to-day issues and encouragements. He approaches a study of the Gospel of John not as a commentary or exegesis but in a way that ministers and laity can find themselves in the pages of God's word.
