Who? Jesus—The Man

December 26, 2021

Jesus asked His disciples, “Who do men say that I am?” This question revealed some wild and weird speculations by the multitudes who had witnessed the words and works of Jesus. Today, men are no different; there are still many who have created more outlandish speculations about a man who lived 2000 years ago.

Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

Most of our trouble and problems can be traced back to the poverty of our prayer lives. In the Gospel of Luke, our Lord uses a few brushstrokes to paint four portraits of prayer. They are simply snapshots to carry with you in your Christian walk, very practical. Put these snapshots together for a composite picture of prayer.

Throughout history, scholars have questioned the reason Jesus washed the disciples' feet. Many dismiss the spiritual significance with explanations of human error on the part of the building owner.

One of the most significant relationships a son can have is with his father, for it is by the father’s influence that a boy grows up to be a man. But what is a father to do when a crisis comes to his son’s life?

Going to the hospital is generally not a pleasant event, but would a visit from the Lord Jesus make your stay more enjoyable? It did for one man as Jesus found him by the pool of Bethesda.

God loves sinners, but He absolutely hates sin. Dr. McGee shows that while many in the world describe Jesus as meek and mild, incapable of hatred and anger, a close and careful examination of the Gospels reveals our Lord's intense and passionate hatred of evil.

Why did Jesus come to this world? The answer is two-fold: His primary purpose was to redeem man; His second purpose was to reveal God. We see both of these purposes at work when Jesus attended a wedding.

About Dr. J. Vernon McGee

John Vernon McGee was born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.

After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.

He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.

On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
