|
|
|
The Gospel of John begins by stating that God sent John the Baptist to identify Jesus Christ as the true Light and Savior. First Christ became a human being and lived here on earth among us and was full of loving forgiveness and truth(John 975). One day while John was baptizing in the Jordan River, Jesus approached to be baptized. ... This sign told John that Jesus is the Son of God(John 977). ... First He turned water into wine(John 977-988). Second, Jesus healed the sick son of a Capernaum government official on account of his faith(John 981). ... Jewish leaders became angry with Jesus for instructing the man to carry his mat, since it was considered working on the Sabbath(John 982). ... Even after this last miracle, many followed Jesus, not because they believed in Him, but because He had fed them(John 983). ... "(John 984). The Pharisees convicted Jesus of blasphemy before He was even tried, because they said that Jesus couldnt be the Messiah, for He would have been born of the royal line of David, in Bethlehem, not of a carpenter in Nazareth(John 985). ... At the last supper, Jesus tells Judas that he will betray Him and Peter that he will deny even knowing Him three times before the cock crowed the next morning(John 993). ... Jesus prays for Himself and later while He and his disciples are in a grove of olive trees, He is arrested(John 997). ... " Wishing not to cause trouble with the Jewish people or Caesar, he sent Jesus to be crucified(John 998). Joseph of Arimathea had been a secret disciple of Jesus for fear of the Jewish leaders, but boldly asked Pilate for permission to take Jesus body down, which was granted(John 999). ... She returned with Peter and John who saw and believed that Jesus had risen(John 1000). ... Later Jesus appeared to His disciples for the last time after Peter, Thomas, Nathanael, James, and John had been fishing all night with no luck and decided to go in. ... As soon as Peter realized who had spoken to them from the shore, he swam to meet Jesus(John 1001). ... Finally, Jesus asked Peter 3 times whether he loved Him for which Peter replied thrice that he did, symbolizing Jesus forgiveness for the three times Peter had denied Him the night before His crucifiction(John 1002).
