Week 10- The Gospel of John

In these lectures, Dr. Tim explores the wonders and profound messages found uniquely in the Gospel of John. In no other Gospel is Jesus equated with God as co-Creator and divine Logos (Word). This is how John starts his Gospel, and from here the book is filled with metaphors, which he uses to try to capture the many ways the incarnate God-man offers to the world light, truth, and hope, which is available from no other source. He writes so that readers will see who Jesus truly is, and by believing will gain eternal life. The Gospel includes the eight famous “I am” statements (e.g., I am the way, the truth, and the life; I am the resurrection and the life; I am the good shepherd), by which Jesus creates a verbal mosaic to vividly portray his true identity as “the Word made flesh.”
