Come See A Man

Apr 5, 2026    Pastor Courage Molina

This powerful Resurrection Sunday message takes us on a journey with the Samaritan woman at the well, revealing that our personal testimony is enough to point others to Jesus. The central truth we encounter is that we don't need theological degrees or perfect lives to share what Christ has done for us. The woman simply said, 'Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did,' and that invitation changed an entire city. Her experience was incomplete, her understanding limited, but her testimony was authentic. We're reminded that our role isn't to save people or convince them—it's simply to invite them to encounter Jesus for themselves. The message then unpacks the seven 'I am' statements from the Gospel of John, revealing Jesus as the bread of life, the light of the world, the door, the good shepherd, the resurrection and the life, the way and the truth, and the true vine. Each declaration shows us that Jesus isn't a luxury for special occasions but our daily necessity for survival. He's not one option among many—He is THE way, THE truth, THE life. This isn't about religion or church attendance; it's about an actual relationship with a historical person who lived, died, and rose again. The invitation is clear: knowing about Jesus isn't the same as knowing Him, and this Resurrection Sunday calls us to move from secondhand faith to personal encounter.
