Good News to Believe (from the Gospel of John)

​

The writer, John, talks about the purpose of his writing with this signature verse: “But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name” (John 20:31).

 

Unlike the other three Gospels, John’s purpose is not to present a chronological narrative of the life of Christ but to display His deity. John sought to strengthen the faith of second-generation believers and bring about faith in others, but he also sought to correct a false teaching that was spreading in the first century.

 

We invite you to join us as we travel through this Gospel in our current sermon series over the next several months. If you would like a copy of our ESV journal over the book of John to use for note-taking, please contact the church office so that we can provide one for you.
