Book Of John - King James Version (KJV) Offline

The book of John is the most unique among the four Gospels with its emphasis on Jesus Christ as the Son of God. The book is written for the purpose that people will believe that Jesus Christ comes from God, and that salvation, life and power can be found only by believing in the Son and accepting Jesus Christ in your life. God sent His only Son because of His great love for us.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.” (John 20:31)

In the Gospel according to John, it contains no parables unlike in the three Gospels. It does not contain about certain accounts in the life of Jesus such as the temptation in the wilderness, the transfiguration, the Lord’s supper, and miracles like casting out of demons; teachings such as Sermon on the Mount and the Lord’s prayer which were written in other synoptic Gospels.

There were seven miracles of Jesus written in the Gospel of John:

1. Jesus turned the water into wine (John 2:1-11)

2. Jesus healed the Official’s Son (John 4:43-54)

3. Jesus healed a lame man at Bethesda (John 5:1-9)

4. The feeding of the five thousand (John 6:1-5)

5. Jesus walked on the water (John 6:16-25)

6. Jesus healed a man born blind (John 9:1-41)

7. Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead (John 11:1-44).

And it is in this book that mentioned that there were more of Jesus’ many other signs and miracles done in the presence of the disciples that were not recorded in the bible; and the purpose that the miracles were written so that people may believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God (John 20:30-31).
