The Fase of Faithfulness



Free Bible Study: Sermons and Devotions
Today’s Devotion: The Face of Faithfulness: John
Scripture: John 19:17-27

Description:
Jesus loved all of the apostles just as much as He loved John, but this man seemed to have a special capacity to receive that love.  He had a special awareness of that love.  He seemed to know better than the others that Jesus was bound to the cross by His love for them.  If Jesus could die on a cross out of love, could not John stand by the cross through the ordeal?  Gratitude and love compelled him to do it. This is the secret of Christian faithfulness.  It will keep us faithful in our service.  It will keep us faithful through all kinds of persecution.  It will make survivors out of us.
