Who wrote John?
What is the Book of John about?
The Gospel of John is a portrait of Jesus Christ as the eternal Word made flesh. Written by the beloved disciple, this book is designed with one purpose: that you may believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name. In this verse-by-verse study, we explore Christ's breathtaking "I AM" statements, His sovereign power over life and death, and the intimate theology of the Upper Room discourse. This exposition provides rigorous, biblical depth to help believers fully grasp the divine glory and grace of the Savior.

John's introduction was all about this word - 'witness.'
Christianity is rooted in history, and backed by eyewitnesses.
In John 1, the author skips the greetings and goes straight to the heart of the matter: he and others saw, heard, and observed the Messiah. "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us," he declared.
In today's study, we'll consider the historical facts that support our faith.
Questions That We'll Answer:
A) Why did John refer to Jesus as 'the Word?'
B) In what way is Jesus also 'the light' that came into the world?
C) What are the implications of Christ's incarnation to you and I?
Speaker: Rev. Dr. Toby B. Holt

John: A Voice In The Wilderness
John the Baptist had one job.
John came to prepare people to meet Jesus.
Specifically, he would 'make straight the way of the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah had foretold.
However, the people wouldn't listen.
John would be a voice crying in the wilderness. He would be misunderstood, and eventually killed.
And the same would happen to the Messiah.
Questions That We'll Answer:
A) Why was John 'baptizing' people? What kind of baptism was this?
B) Why did John say 'behold the Lamb' when he saw Jesus approach?
C) What's the difference between 'appeasement' and 'atonement?'
