Description
This book discusses Jesus’s seven “I am” sayings in the Gospel according to John. Each one is presented in three ways: “Who Jesus Is,” “What Jesus Does,” and “What Jesus Wants Us to Do.”
“Who Jesus Is” explains how the metaphors of the light, the vine, etc., are Jesus’s way of explaining how this young man of Nazareth is also the Son of God.
Jesus then goes on to say that being the light, the vine, etc., also explains what his mission is.
He uses these metaphors in a climactic way when he explains that they describe what his followers are to do in carrying out his mission.
This Fourth Gospel was written for Christians in the newborn church c. AD 100. They came from varied spiritual backgrounds and sometimes did not get along with each other and needed to hear. It was ostensibly written by someone called “the disciple whom Jesus loved.” This book dares to venture a surprising explanation of who this Beloved Disciple might be.
