John
The Gospel of John is unique among the four Gospels, focusing less on chronological events and more on deeply theological teachings. John's stated purpose is to prove that Jesus Christ is the divine Son of God so that readers "may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name." The book uses seven key "I Am" statements (like "I Am the Bread of Life" and "I Am the Good Shepherd") to reveal Jesus's true identity. John also records seven great signs (miracles) that testify to Jesus's deity. Much of the book covers Jesus’ private teachings to his disciples, culminating in his sacrificial death, victorious resurrection, and commissioning of the disciples.
John declares, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God." John the Baptist identifies Jesus as the Lamb of God. Jesus calls His first disciples.
Jesus performs His first public miracle at a wedding in Cana, turning water into wine. He cleanses the Temple and prophesies His resurrection.
Nicodemus visits Jesus at night. Jesus tells him he must be "born again" (born of the Spirit). Jesus proclaims, "For God so loved the world..."
Jesus speaks with the Samaritan woman at the well, offering "living water" and revealing her past. Many Samaritans believe He is the Savior of the world.
