Episode 268: 32AD Passion Week Thursday: The Real Lord's Prayer

Unprompted, at the end of the Last Supper, Jesus prays for himself, his disciples, and future believers.  In this prayer, we see the true way to heaven, a deeper understanding of holiness, and Jesus' prayer for you and me. John 17www.messagetokings.com

In John 15, Jesus says I am the vine and my father is the gardener. In this teaching, we speak of abiding in the vine and bearing fruit and the cutting that comes in love. From this place of abiding, love and joy and fruit come forth.  John 15:1-17www.messagetokings.com

After Judas leaves, and the devil is out of the room, Jesus teaches the believers about the greater promises.  He covers everything from mansions to greater works to manifestations and the spirit of truth. In this episode, we discuss my second favorite chapter in the whole Bible, John 14 and the promises to the believer.   John 14Matt 7:13John 8:31John 10:10John 1:41 Corinthians 2:8www.messagetokings.com

As the passover drew near, Jesus had a feast with his disciples. In this episode, we discuss the profound symbolism of this moment, its context, bridal revelation, and further revelation of the passover lamb. Even in closing, as they sang a hymn and departed, psalm 118 was on their lips, "I shall not die and live, and declare the works of the Lord."   Matthew 26:17-35Mark 14:12-31Luke 22:7-38John 131 Corinthians 5:71 Peter 1:19Guest Speaker: Jannel Heastonwww.messagetokings.com

Looking for ways to arrest and kill Jesus, the chief priests and associates offered thirty pieces of silver to Judas to betray him. Judas agrees, and he participates in the Last Supper, until Jesus dismisses him.  It says that satan, the devil, possesses him at that moment to betray him.  In this episode, we cover Judas' betrayal and a few examples of demon possession in history.  Matthew 26:1-4Matthew 26:14-16Matthew 27:3-10Luke 22:1-6John 13:18-30www.messagetokings.com

After being sought out by gentiles, Jesus responds "unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but, if it dies, it product much grain. He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life." Further, Jesus shouted in prayer to his father, and a voice came from heaven in response. In this podcast, we discuss the grain of wheat and the voice from heaven. John 12:20-36www.messagetokings.com

Jesus says "no one knows the day or hour." In this podcast, we discuss this verse, some history, and times and seasons. But more importantly, does this mean we should be prepared? Sure, but more importantly we should live like there is no tomorrow! Mark 13:32-37Luke 21:34-38Matthew 24:14www.messagetokings.com

Jesus continues to discuss end times in the Olivet Discourse, and concludes with the final judgement. In this podcast, we discuss this judgment, the millennium reign, and the New Jerusalem.   Matthew 25:31-46Revelation 21www.messagetokings.com

In connection with the Olivet Discourse, Jesus tells the parable of the wise and foolish virgins.  While the bridegroom delayed in his coming, five wise virgins had enough oil to light their lamps, while five foolish virgins ran out of oil.  While they are gone, the bridegroom arrives locking out the foolish virgins.  In this episode, we cover different perspectives of this parable and its primary interpretation of waiting and not growing weary.  Matthew 25:1-132 Timothy 4:7-8Romans 5:3-4James 1:2-4www.messagetokings.com

Jesus continues his private meeting with his disciples on end times. In this final installment of the Olivet Discourse, we discuss the rapture, the judgment, and the end of the age. Matthew 24:29-44Matthew 25:31-46www.messagetokings.com
