COMMON GROUND: 
J. SERIES: THE SERVANT KING - SESSION 7
6:00-7:15P
JOHN 14.15-31

Think about your favorite epic story.

That television series you have watched season after season.  The movies that you memorized line by line.  The thousands of pages that you have read and re-read.  That huge story that unfolds slowly. Carefully.  The growing anticipation, searching to see where the narrative leads.  How it all ties together.  How it will end.

And there is that moment.  You find yourself leaning toward the screen.  Gripping the pages.  You arrive at the clincher—the climax.  It is a moment in a series of moments.  But it is THE MOMENT.  It is the moment that defines all the other moments.  It is the fulcrum.  The crux.  It is the entire reason for all of the other moments. All the other episodes.  All the surrounding paragraphs and pages.

THIS. IS. IT.

THIS moment.  THIS conversation. 

John gives almost a quarter of his gospel account to this one evening.  This discourse from Jesus.  It is THAT important!  That wonderful!

JESUS IS THE FULFILLMENT OF THE LAW!  The corporate call is the call to OBEY Him.  The relational call is the call to love Him.  Both of these are (actually) one and the same!  The Law of God that was embodied in stone is now embodied in flesh!  The Law is not destroyed but FULFILLED in Christ!
