Description
THE GOSPEL OF JOHN
“In the beginning was the Word.” These opening words from the Gospel of John draw a portrait of Jesus as the Divine Logos, the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus has a dual role as Revealer and Redeemer. He came to reveal the Father and to take away “the sin of the world.” As the Logos, Jesus continued God’s creative and redemptive work, turning water to wine and giving sight to a blind man. As the Revealer, Jesus revealed that He and the Father were one, so those who saw Him, saw the Father. All that Jesus does and says points beyond and above to the knowledge of God, through Jesus’ revelation of the Father, which reaches its fulfillment in His death on the cross and His triumphant resurrection from the grave.
