Message: “The Gospel of John: Survey [Part 1]” from Nathan Smith

The Gospel of John stands as a unique testament within the New Testament, offering deep theological insights and a vivid portrayal of our need for a Savior. It begins with the chaos of humanity's moral decay, as depicted in the book of Judges, setting the stage for the introduction of Jesus as the King who can conquer sin and unite us with God. As an eyewitness account from John, one of Jesus' closest disciples, this gospel provides a rich, intimate perspective on Jesus' ministry and teachings. It is structured into the Book of Signs, showcasing Jesus' divine nature through miracles, and the Book of Glory, focusing on His path to the cross and resurrection. The central themes of love and mission are woven throughout, with John's gospel calling us to think much of Christ and to reflect His love in our actions and decisions.
