Author: The apostle John Audience: Primarily Gentile believers and seeking unbelievers Date: Either the AD 60s or, more likely, the 80s or early 90s Theme: John presents Jesus as the Word, the Messiah and the incarnate Son of God, who has come to reveal the Father and bring eternal life to all who believe in him. |
Throughout the book of John, John's message is bold and clear: Jesus is the eternal Word, the Messiah, the Son of God — the one who has come to reveal the Father and bring eternal life to all who believe in him (John 20:31). This Gospel offers a unique lens into Jesus' life and ministry, often focusing on "signs" and "glory" that reveal his divine identity. It invites readers not only to know about Jesus, but to believe in him and find life in his name. |
