Thank you for Reading this Great Book This slide show is meant to help you as you read John Make sure you have your volume turned up—there is audio with this slide show Take your time and stop the presentation any time you would like Let us know if you have any questions

Where and When Was John Written? Possibly the end of the first century (80-90AD) Evidence suggests that John died in Ephesus and that this Gospel was written near there This was the 4 th Gospel written Ephesus

Themes of the Gospels Matthew = written to Jews that Jesus fulfilled the law of God. Mark = Peter told the story of Jesus to the Roman Christians and Mark wrote it down. Luke = He was a doctor and was Paul’s friend. He wrote to a Christian named Theophilus, we think he was a Greek. John = wrote to Jewish Christians that Jesus was God.

John 1 1:1 = Jesus is God 1:10 = Jesus came to reach those he created 1:12 = The right to be children of God 1:14-18 = What does dwell among us mean? Notice that John uses belief and receive often John wants you to make a decision about Jesus….

John 2, 5, 6 Three major gods at Ephesus –Dionysius = the god of wine –Asclepius = the god of healing –Demeter = the goddess of bread How does John show us that Jesus is greater than these gods?

John 3 Nicodemus was a Rabbi, Jewish ruler, and teacher He was struggling to understand Jesus –3:9 How can this be? –7:51Shouldn’t we listen to Jesus? –19:39Jesus is there to bury Jesus! –Are you like Nicodemus What does it mean to be “Born Again” or “Born from Above”? How does baptism fit into this?

John 4 Jews have nothing to do with Samaritans Samaritans seen as bad people Men do not talk with women Jesus violates his social boundaries

John 5 and 6 Healing = “Do you want to get better?” Jesus has power to heal—but do you want to be healed? Bread = commitment to Jesus Where else can we go?
