Lessons from the Gospel of John

In this life there are always some unanswered questions and some unsolved problems. In the last analysis we must always walk by faith and not by sight.

Jesus brought to menthe love of God.

Jesus teaches us how to forgive, and how to trust the man who was
guilty of failure. The cross was his glory because its magnet drew men to him in a way that even his life had never done – and it is so yet.

By going to the cross Jesus showed that there was nothing that the
love of God was not prepared to do and suffer for men.It is Jesus who taught men that God is not remote and unapproachable, but the father whose name and nature are love.

It is Jesus’s great claim that he showed to men the true nature and
the true character of God. So long as we wish to do what we like, we cannot be disciples; discipleship involves submission.
The world stands for “human society organising itself without God.”
Christianity was never meant to withdraw a man from life, but to
equip him better for it. It does not offer us release from our problems, but a way to solve them.
