29 Oct 2026: The Hour Has Come: John 11–17, Eternal Life, and the Upper Room Discourse
Loading player...
When Jesus announced that "the hour has come," the entire momentum of the Gospel of John shifted directly toward the cross. In this third session of our overview of John with Rocky Stevenson Pastor of Benoni Bible Church, we examine the major turning point spanning John 11:1–17:26.
Beginning with the miraculous raising of Lazarus in John | 11:25–26, Jesus reveals Himself as the resurrection and the life before entering Jerusalem as Israel’s true King. Moving into the Upper Room Discourse in John | 13:1–16:33, Christ models sacrificial love through foot washing, declares Himself as the exclusive way to the Father in John | 14:6, calls His followers to abide in the vine in John | 15:5, and promises the Holy Spirit. Finally, in the High Priestly Prayer of John | 17:3, Jesus defines eternal life as knowing the only true God and intercedes for the sanctification and unity of His church.
Whether you are seeking a deeper theological grasp of Christ's final hours or preparing for expository teaching, listen to reflect on how Christ’s sacrificial love, sovereignty, and intercession secure eternal life for all who believe.
