The Beautiful Book Series with Dr. Paul Choo

John, described as the disciple whom Jesus loved. The Gospel of John tells us that Jesus is the Son of God(20:31). He traces Jesus, in the beginning was the word-He is eternal(1:1). This is a very spiritual Gospel, a struggle sometimes of what John was trying to declare, to grasp the understanding of the Incarnation of Jesus: He is 100% God & 100% Man. Even today, it's one of the mysteries of Theology. John accounts the 7 "I am" statements of Jesus on 7 occasions & the last hours of Jesus' life. Through the washing of the disciples' feet what does Jesus encapsulate in this act? What's our ministry as believers? I hope this teaches you to grow in maturity, now you're ready to wash feet -"see needs around”. Meet needs: spiritual, physical, mental, & family. An opportunity to help buildbridges so you can give out the Gospel of love(3:16) in the power of the Holy Spirit under the guidance of Jesus Christ-The Lord of the harvest & you'll see amazing things. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you. May God bless you with this Gospel of John.

Mark | The Beautiful Book Series with Dr. Paul Choo | Asia Forum for Leaders (AFL)

Mark Sometimes called John Mark, was an assistant to Paul & Barnabas and later on became Peter's assistant. The Gospel of Mark showed Jesus as a Servant King, and was written for unbelievers (like tracts) as Matthew was for the (Jewish) believers. Mark focuses on the miracles, what Jesus did during His ministry as the Son of God (8:29). What can we learn from the turning point of a Roman centurion when he heard the victory cry of Jesus on the cross? The response was to evoke a lesson for unbelievers to realize they've been doubting & ignoring Jesus all these years. Till one day something shocks you, God allows you to go through a crisis -then the turning point comes. Until you're afraid you're going to hell -you cry out for help. Until you're broke- you'll be fixed. May you help unbelievers read this book in the right way & let God work in their hearts. God bless you!
