In this second part of The Quiet but Bold Disciple, we continue examining the Apostle John through his interactions with Peter and his relationship with Jesus. We consider John standing faithfully at the cross while Jesus entrusts His mother to his care, and then follow Peter and John as they run to the empty tomb on the morning of the resurrection. Their different personalities and actions provide another interesting glimpse into the character of these two apostles. We then come to John 21, where Peter asks Jesus, “Lord, and what shall this man do?” Jesus’ answer – “What is that to thee? follow thou me” – provides an important lesson about keeping our attention on Christ rather than comparing our calling, circumstances, or service with those of others. The message concludes with several practical observations about the reality of the Gospel accounts, John’s humility, friendly rivalry, the danger of comparison, and the importance of simply following Christ faithfully.

The Quiet but Bold Disciple (Part 2)
The sacrifices of the Old Testament required animals, an altar, and a priest. But Hebrews tells us that there is a sacrifice we can offer continually—"the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name." We don't have to find a bull, a goat, a sheep, or even a turtledove. We can praise God every single day. The sacrifice of praise is something every child of God can offer continually as we look to Christ and bear His reproach.

The Sacrifice You Can Offer Every Day
The priests of the Old Testament continually brought animals to the altar. Bulls, goats, sheep, and turtledoves were offered again and again, but those sacrifices could never be the final answer to sin. They pointed forward to something greater. Jesus Christ came as the true High Priest, not to offer another animal, but to offer Himself. "A body hast thou prepared me." The sacrifice He offered was His very own body, given for His people. The Old Testament sacrifices pointed to Christ, and in Christ we see what they were pointing toward all along.

Jesus Came to Offer His Own Body
The blood of bulls and goats could never take away sin. The sacrifices of the Old Testament served as a remembrance of sin, but they also pointed forward to the perfect sacrifice that was to come. Christ was concealed in those sacrifices and revealed in the New Testament. Jesus came into the world with a body prepared for sacrifice. He gave His own body upon the cross as a substitute for His people. His redemption work is perfect, complete, and not up for question. Praise God for the sacrifice of Jesus Christ!

The Perfect Sacrifice of Jesus Christ
Cain and Abel give us an early picture of the sovereignty of God. Cain brought an offering from the ground, while Abel brought the firstlings of his flock. God had respect unto Abel and his offering, but He did not have respect unto Cain and his offering. The difference was not that Cain was able to make himself acceptable before God. The distinction was the grace of God. Abel's sacrifice points us forward to Christ, while the account of Cain and Abel reminds us that God is sovereign in whom He chooses to show mercy. We don't always like the sovereignty of God because we like to think we're the ones in control. But Scripture repeatedly puts God's sovereignty on display—in Cain and Abel, Moses and Pharaoh, Jacob and Esau, and ultimately in the salvation of sinners.

Cain and Abel: The Sovereignty of God
The law leaves us with no room for self-righteousness. Suddenly we realize that we're all guilty, and salvation by works offers us no hope. Our only hope is Jesus Christ—the perfect Man, the God-Man, God's only begotten Son, who stood in our place and suffered the penalty that we deserved. Salvation is not found in our works or our righteousness. It is found in Christ, who gave Himself as a sacrifice for His people.

Christ Stood in Our Place
The Old Testament sacrifices pointed forward to something far greater. God prepared a body for Christ, and Jesus came into the world to offer His very own body as the perfect sacrifice for His people. We are guilty sinners, and our own righteousness cannot save us. But Christ took our place upon the cross as our substitute. Our hope is not in how righteous we think we are. Our hope is in the righteousness and sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

Christ Died as Our Substitute
The Seven Churches of Asia | Introduction: A Statement on Authority As we begin a new series through Jesus’ letters to the seven churches of Asia Minor in Revelation 2–3, this introductory message establishes the authority behind those letters. Though the words are recorded by John, the speaker is Jesus Christ Himself—and chapter 1 makes that authority unmistakable. Before examining the individual churches and the problems they faced, we consider the descriptions of Christ in Revelation 1: He is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, the prince of the kings of the earth, the Alpha and Omega, and the eternal One who was, and is, and is to come. He stands in the midst of the churches, holds their messengers in His hand, and wields the sword of His Word. These were not messages from a committee, a denominational authority, or human opinion. They came from the risen and reigning Christ to seven struggling churches—and His words remain relevant to churches in every age. We also consider the proper response when Christ speaks. John fell at His feet in reverence, and then obeyed His command to deliver the message he had received. The church today is likewise called not merely to hear the words of Christ, but to keep them. This message serves as the introduction to our study of the Seven Churches of Asia.

A Statement of Authority | Introduction to the Seven Churches of Asia
The final plague upon Egypt was a terrible judgment. The firstborn would die, but God provided a way of deliverance for His people. They were commanded to take a lamb, shed its blood, and apply that blood to the doorposts and lintel of the house. When God passed through, He would see the blood and pass over them in His wrath. That Passover was a picture of redemption. The blood of the lamb pointed forward to the blood of Jesus Christ, the true Passover Lamb. God sees the blood applied to His people, and because of Christ's sacrifice, His wrath passes over us.

When God Sees the Blood
In this message, we begin a study of the Apostle John, one of the “sons of thunder” who is often overshadowed by the more outspoken Apostle Peter. Yet as we follow John through the Gospel accounts, we discover a disciple whose quiet and humble character was accompanied by remarkable boldness and faithfulness. We consider the friendship and contrasts between Peter and John, John’s early calling to follow Jesus, and the remarkable way he refers to himself throughout his Gospel as “the disciple whom Jesus loved.” We also examine John’s close proximity to Christ at the Last Supper and his presence during Jesus’ arrest and trial, where his quiet courage stands in striking contrast to Peter’s impulsiveness and denial. The life of John reminds us that Christian faithfulness does not always look loud or prominent. There is a place for the quiet disciple who simply stays close to Jesus, follows Him, and remains faithful. http://flintriverpbc.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/episode-0137-–-08-09-26-quiet-bold-disciple-pt1.mp3 John: The Quiet but Bold Disciple (http://flintriverpbc.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/episode-0137-–-08-09-26-quiet-bold-disciple-pt1.mp3)
The Quiet but Bold Disciple — Part 1
Why did God accept animal sacrifices in the Old Testament while rejecting the false worship practiced by the nations? The answer is Christ. Those sacrifices were never an end in themselves—they were shadows pointing forward to the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Unlike the pagan religions of the world, God's ordained sacrifices proclaimed the coming Savior who would lay down His life for His people once and for all.

Every Old Testament Sacrifice Pointed to Jesus
Every one of us stands guilty before a holy God. The law doesn't exist to convince us we're righteous—it reveals our sin. Jesus showed that God's standard reaches far beyond outward actions and exposes the thoughts and intents of our hearts. When we see ourselves as we truly are, we also see the futility of trying to save ourselves by works. The law points us away from self-righteousness and to the only perfect Man who can save sinners: Jesus Christ.

Why the Law Shows Us We Need Christ
Christ is our true Passover Lamb. His blood has been applied to His people, and because of His finished work, God's wrath passes over us in the day of judgment. If our hope rests in our works or our religion, we have no hope at all. But if our confidence is in Jesus Christ alone, we have every reason to rest in His perfect sacrifice. "There is salvation in none other."

Christ, Our Passover Lamb | Salvation in None Other
What would it be like to wake up on the Lord's Day with no church to attend? Psalm 137 captures the heartbreak of God's people in exile as they remembered Zion and wept. In this excerpt from The Health of Zion, we consider how precious the Lord's church truly is—and why we should never take the privilege of gathering for worship for granted.

Faith Lost: When God's House Disappears
Sowing in Tears, Reaping in Joy The promise of Psalm 126 is as encouraging today as it was when it was first written: "They that sow in tears shall reap in joy." In this excerpt from The Health of Zion, we consider how the ministry of the gospel often involves labor, sacrifice, and even tears—but God promises a joyful harvest. As we faithfully sow the seed of His Word, we trust Him to bring forth the increase in His own time.
