Good morning, and on behalf of Pastor J.D. Farag, we'd like to welcome you to our live stream service here at Calvary Chapel, Kanoi.

We're on Sundays. We have two services. The first service is normally dedicated to the prophecy update and the second service to the sermon.

But today, we're going to have us a two-part teaching.

And this first teaching, I would invite you to join me in the Gospel of John in chapter 12.

We will read from verse 20 through verse 26.

Again, the book of John.

And all who are able to stand, I would ask that you do so for the reading of the scriptures this morning, followed by a much-needed word of prayer.

The Gospel of John, chapter 12, beginning in verse 20.

The word of God reads, now there was certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast.

Then they came to Philip, who was from Betheseda of Galilee, asking him, saying, sir, we wish to see Jesus. Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew and Philip told Jesus. But Jesus answered them saying, the hour has come that the son of man should be glorified. Most assuredly, I say to you,

unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies,

it remains alone.

But if it dies, it produces much grain.

He who loves his life will lose it,

and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

In verse 26, if anyone serves me, let him follow me, and where I am, there my servant will be also.

If anyone serves me, him, my Father will honor. Why don't we pray and ask the Lord to bless this teaching this morning.

Father in heaven, first I want to thank you for your word of truth.

And I ask now, Lord, that you were just by the power of your Holy Spirit.

Meet us here.

Each and every one of us and speak clearly your word so that we can take heed to it, hear it, and die to self because of it.

We dedicate this time to you freely giving it back, knowing that it is borrowed.
