Movie trailers there. Those clips, those selected shots of coming movies, their intent is to attract audiences to come back and watch the film trailers are excerpts of the film. The exciting parts, the goal is to generate keen interest and get you to come back and watch the full film. The motion picture association limits them to no more than two minutes and 30 seconds. The first 18 verses of the gospel of John are a trailer, a gospel trailer. I certainly don't have a voiceover for movie trailers, but I'm going to try to keep it in less than two minutes and 30 seconds. And summarize what John says in his gospel trailer about what you'll learn about Jesus.

Here's what he promises. If you follow through and watch the full feature that Jesus existed with God before creation that Jesus in fact, was God and was responsible for creating all things. Life is found in Jesus that he stomps out the curse of death from sin and light is found in Jesus. As the prophet, Isaiah said in chapter nine, those walking in darkness will see his great light before Jesus, the light would come. A 4runner would come pointing us to him. The light that we might believe in him, Jesus would come into the world. He made and not be recognized or received, but a few would receive him.

And those who did would become God's kids again, how would they receive him by believing in him? And when they did, they would be born again by God's spirit. His Harold, the 4runner would be born before him, but younger than him, while Moses brought the love guide, he would bring God's truth and grace heaped up and overflowing. While in the old Testament, God showed up in various forms like burning bushes. Now God in him showed up, stayed awhile and clearly revealed what God looks like. Seriously, that gospel trailer sounds Saifai.

But John said, no, no, no. This really happened. Stay tuned. Have we got a story to tell you? And that story starts with the 4runner, the one born before Jesus, his cousin, John in our next word picture.
