Show Notes

The Gospel of John offers a distinct perspective on Jesus. John uses symbolic numbers, like seven "I Am" sayings, to highlight Jesus' identity. It features unique miracles and teachings, emphasizing Jesus' divinity from the very first verse. John identifies himself humbly as the "disciple whom Jesus loved."

 

John omits some familiar events but focuses on lengthy discourses and interactions. He uses contrasts like light vs. darkness to highlight Jesus' message. John portrays a three-year ministry and explicitly states his purpose: to lead readers to believe in Jesus as the Messiah and Son of God. The Gospel emphasizes personal encounters with Jesus that have the power to transform lives. John's unique perspective enriches our understanding of Jesus Christ.
