Welcome to this week’s worship service at The Vine! 🌿

In today’s message, we continue our journey through the Gospel of John as Jesus has one of His most intense and revealing exchanges with the religious leaders. Their accusations escalate—from questioning His heritage to calling Him demon-possessed—but Jesus remains steady, focused on honoring the Father rather than defending Himself.

From John 8:48–58, we see three powerful truths about who Jesus is:
• He remains faithful even when misunderstood, showing us how to honor God when others misjudge us.
• He offers eternal life to all who embrace His word: “Whoever obeys My word will never see death.”
• He declares His eternal identity with the words, “Before Abraham was born, I AM,” confronting us with a choice—reject Him or worship Him.

This passage invites us to reflect deeply on Jesus’ true nature, His unity with the Father, and the life He offers to those who trust Him.

May today’s service help you see Jesus more clearly and follow Him more wholeheartedly.
