John

John wrote this gospel to prove that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and to believe in Him and be saved. His evidence is the miracles that Jesus performed, the words He spoke and the testimony of the witnesses that knew Him.

Seven witnesses declare that Jesus is the Son of God: John the Baptist, Nathaniel, Peter, a man who had been blind, Martha, Thomas and the apostle John. Jesus also declared Himself Deity.

John not only wrote for the Jews, Greeks, and for the Romans but for the whole world. John’s invitation is “Come and hear, Come and see!” His words and His works prove that Jesus is indeed the Son of God. Throughout this book Jesus is seen as Savior and Lord.

John modestly spoke of himself as the “disciple whom Jesus loved.” He clarified who that was in John 21:24.

John wrote to encourage faith in the only Son of God that all who believe in Him might have everlasting life. His goal was to portray Christ as the divine Son of God, clothed in human flesh, having come to save all who believe in Him.

Most people thirst for something beyond themselves. We thirst for the relationship with our Creator that our first parents lost in Eden. We thirst for a deeper sense of meaning to our lives, even when we are as busy as we have ever been. There is life in Jesus name, eternal life that will sustain us forever and life for today that will refresh and renew us in the middle of our journey. Christ says, “Come and drink, Come and live.”
