…if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit / John 12:12-26

John 12:12-26

As Jesus enters Jerusalem in triumph, the crowds swell with excitement. Even the visiting Greeks—drawn by Passover and rumor—long to see him and hear his words. But Jesus’ reply makes one thing clear: the hour for teaching has passed; the hour to lay down his life has come. In John 12, he gives us a pattern to follow, a principle to live by, and a promise to cling to—keys to understanding salvation and true discipleship.
