John 1:1-14
INTRO: I want you to take God's Word now this morning and be finding your place at John chapter 1 if you will.

Now, I'm not saying that there ever was a time when the world, universally, understood what it should know. We know that's not true. I'm not even saying that there was a time in this nation where everyone knew the gospel of the Lord Jesus. That's never happened. But we should recognized that even as our task of fulfilling the Great Commission has never been fulfilled, and to this day remains the burning, consuming mission of the church, we should recognize that we are living ...
