| | Jesus, The King of Truth by C. H. Spurgeon
Topic: Scripture(s): John 18:37 | | Description: A SERMON DELIVERED ON THURSDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 19TH, 1872, BY C. H. SPURGEON, AT THE METROPOLITAN TABERNACLE, NEWINGTON. Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. John 18:37. THE season is almost arrived when by the custom of our fellow-citizens we are led to remember the birth of the holy child Jesus, who was born king of the Jews. I shall not, however, conduct you to Bethlehem, but to the foot of Calvary; there we shall learn, from the Lord's own lips, something concerning the kingdom over which he rules, and thus we shall be led to prize more highly the joyous event of his nativity. We are told, by the apostle Paul, that our Lord Jesus Christ before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession. It was a good confession as to the manner of it, for our Lord was truthful, gentle, prudent, patient, meek, and yet, withal, uncompromising, and courageous. His spirit was not cowed by Pilate's power, nor exasperated by his sneers. In his patience he possessed his soul, and remained the model witness for the truth both in his silence and in his speech. He witnessed a good confession also, as to the matter of it; for, though he said but little, that little was all that was needful.

| | | The Witness of Truth by Carter Conlon
Topic: Truth Scripture(s): John 18:37-38, Proverbs 7:15 | | Description: Its one thing to tell people about God its another thing to be a living witness of His truth. Truth is an effective witness when our speech and actions are one. Truth has a confidence in God that believes He is in control and He works all circumstances for our good. When Truth stands before the unsaved and God begins to reveal Himself through our lives, the truth that is in us will force a man to search his heart. The man or woman that is a witness to truth shows a dying world that there us a Living God that bears witness to Himself through our lives.

| | | | | | | | | When Darkness Fails to Comprehend the Light by Carter Conlon
Topic: Following Jesus Scripture(s): John 19:5-7 | | Description: June 04, 2006 When we choose to follow Jesus there has to be a complete upheaval of a former inner value system. So many today are following the wrong Jesus. Many dont want to follow a Christ that uses His resources and power to help others. Many want the power of Christ but not the path of Christ. Folloing Jesus will lead us down a road of self sacrafice. It is at this crossroad where many turn away from folowing the Jesus of the bible.
