John

Introduction

John’s Gospel is built around signs and “I am” sayings so that readers may believe that Jesus is the Christ and have life in his name. Light, life, truth, and love are key words. The farewell discourses and the passion are especially full. Read it slowly; it is deep water.

This introduction is original UECF.NET companion text. It is not the printed Life Application book introduction.
