Christ preached fervently to the very end. Moreover, He maintained the same message because it is the message of the truth from the Father. In this first sermon in this series, we examine the example of Christ in His steadfast proclamation of the truth and His steadfast message. In particular, with regard to the message of Christ, we give attention to the import of verses 44-45 in which Jesus explains His divine equality with the Father and why no one can know God apart from knowing Christ.
