Emmanuel Uniting Church Real People with Relevant Faith for Our Community

Our faith is grounded in the historical reality of the man, Jesus of Nazareth. He was a real person who lived 2000 years ago and who stilled a storm with just a word whilst sailing with some other very real people in a boat just like this 1st Century fishing boat. People then started to talk about God being among them and they gave Jesus the name, "Emmanuel". Emmanuel means "God with us" and the people at our church, (real people like teachers, doctors, soldiers, administrators, engineers, shop-keepers, accountants, tradies, students, etc.) chose that name because they have a real, daily experience of Jesus alongside them, helping them do life better. In addition, we believe that he calls all of us to work for transformation in other people's lives helping them do life better and helping our community do better all round. We would love you to come and join us to meet Jesus for yourself and let him transform you too!

Sunday September 23rd - John 9:1-41

Sermons

23 September, 2018Rev Ian WeaverDigIn

Jesus heals a blind man

Can you list the seven “I am” sayings from John’s Gospel? (Eg “I am the Light of the World” from this passage.)

Where else do you remember the phrase “I am” from in the bible? (Hint: early in Exodus)

What do you think John is trying to communicate by using this phrase? How does this passage help that goal?

How is Jesus using the images of light and dark? Describe how the man was in the dark then in the light? (Literally and metaphorically/spiritually) Compare and contrast with the Pharisees?

What do you think was blinding the Pharisees? Have you ever been blind to the work of God? What opened your eyes? How can we help open the eyes of the spiritually blind today?
