John is Different It omits many things the synoptic gospels include: Events in the life of Jesus presented only in John: the Birth of Jesus wedding feast at Cana His baptism His conversations with Nicodemus, the woman at the well and others His temptations deliverance of those demon possessed the raising of Lazarus washing disciple’s feet His ascension teaching about the H.S. parables His High Priestly prayer

John’s Framework Chapters 1-12 Jesus is at work in public, showing signs and teaching to diverse public audiences. Chapters 13-17 Jesus is in private turning His attention to his disciples, teaching, comforting, and praying for them. Chapters 18-21 Finally, the story ends with a detailed Passion/resurrection account.

John’s 7s Exodus 3:14 (NIV) God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” John 8:58 (NIV) “I tell you the truth," Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!”

John’s 7s Seven “I am” statements: I am the bread of life (6:35) I am the light of the world (8:12) I am the gate for the sheep (10:7) I am the good shepherd (10:11) I am the resurrection and the life (11:25) I am the way, the truth, and the life (14:6) I am the true vine (15:1)

John’s 7s Seven “I am” statements Seven Signs that point to Jesus’ power and divinity (recorded in chapters 1-11):

1. Turning the water into wine 2:1-11 Jesus is LORD of NATURE. Able to change one substance into another. 2. The healing of the nobleman's son 4:46-54 Jesus is LORD of LIFE.

The feeding of the five thousand 6:1-14 Jesus is the FOOD by which we live. He is able to SUSTAIN the spiritual life He creates.

John’s purpose John 20:30-31 (NIV) 30 Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. 31 But these are written that you may (continue to) believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

John’s purpose John wrote out of intimacy, promoting intimacy. The book of John points to Jesus as being the ultimate embodiment of how to live in constant, intimate relationship with God the Father. And Jesus is the ultimate expression of how we are to live in relationship with others.
