John 4:35
John 4:35, “Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest.” And the harvest is reaped—even now—as the crucified and risen Jesus is proclaimed in the power of the Spirit.

John 4:14, “But whoever drink of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” The Living Water is the Spirit who flows from the Father and the Son, revealing to us the
John 14:6, “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” There simply are not many paths to God….there is one—Jesus Christ. This is not a human invention….it’s not something the Church developed to monopolize power (I’m not saying it has
Proverbs 30:3-4, “I have not learned wisdom, nor have I knowledge of the Holy One. Who has ascended to heaven and come down?” John 3:13-15, “No one has ascended into heaven except He who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the

Unlike most of the pictures I create for Full of Eyes, this one is topical rather than exegetical. I was asked to create an image that would weave together the themes of Mephibosheth invited to the king’s table (2 Samuel 9), the Christian as the “crippled soul” invited to the Lord’s feast (Luke 14:12-24,
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” – John 14:27
An Overview In Isaiah 6:1, Isaiah sees the Lord God “high and lifted up” in glory on His throne. Throughout Isaiah, the repeated theme is that YHWH alone is to be exalted, He alone is Savior–there is no other, and He shares His glory with none. But then, in Isaiah 52:13, that same phrase–“high and

This animation is an attempt to bring the all-satisfying beauty of the crucified and risen Christ to bear against the soul-ailment of addiction. My prayer is that it might be used to stir holy love for the Triune God and so decisively shatter strongholds of lesser joys, and that those who are weary of falling

Matthew 26:39, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me…” Mark 14:36, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me…” Luke 22:42, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me…” John 18:11, “Shall I not drink the cup that the Father has

John 17:22-23, “The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you
John 17:11, “Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one.” In 17:6 Christ says that He has manifested the Father’s Name to those whom the Father has given Him. Now in verse 11 He asks that those same ones
John 17:3, “And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” John 17:3 is one of the most paradigmatic verses for me in all of scripture….it overflows with implications for all of life and informs pretty much everything I do and create…So with
John 16:14-15, “He will glorify me, for He will take what is mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine…” I was reading through John 16 this morning and was once again struck by the unique role that Jesus tells us the Spirit fulfills. The Spirit glorifies the Son,
John 15:12, “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.” Jesus’ call to obey His commandment (s) (there are, I believe, two commandments in view when John uses the plural “commandments”, 1) to receive Jesus as the Son and Revealer of God, and 2) to love as He
There is no God like YHWH, and He declares that with definitive finality when He descends into the deepest trenches of our suffering through the cross of Christ. In the freedom of His sovereign love, our Lord and our God penetrates to the heart of hopelessness and bears the full horror of His Bride’s godforsakenness

John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” As I considered this morning what exactly the “Peace” that Jesus gives is, I noticed a few things: First,
John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice…” If we’ve heard the voice of our Shepherd calling our name in the love of Calvary, we are His sheep.
John 11:25, “I am the Resurrection and the Life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live…”
John 9:25, “…I was blind, now I see.” 2 Corinthians 4:6, “God…has shone into our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” To see the beauty of God, shining from the face that was marred beyond human semblance for our sin–that is
