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.
Jesus prays His High Priestly Prayer, asking the Father to protect His followers and that all believers may be one to prove the Father sent Him.
Judas betrays Jesus. Peter denies Jesus three times. Jesus is questioned by Annas, Caiaphas, and Pilate about His identity as King.
Pilate yields to the crowd; Jesus is scourged and crucified. The charge above the cross reads: "JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS."
Mary Magdalene finds the empty tomb. Jesus appears to her and later to the disciples. Thomas declares, "My Lord and my God!" after seeing Jesus's wounds.
