Gospel of John - Under A Minute


These help me remember the general direction and content of the book. Hopefully they help you in your study and/or spawn some sermon or discussion ideas.

Gospel of John - 
John 1 - Two things are key in ministry for all believers, a) testimony and b) calling
John 2 - Jesus is passionate about the intent of the heart of man
John 3 - Salvation is found in Jesus the Christ the Son of the Living God
John 4 - Jesus sees our "As Is" tag and accepts us anyway
John 5 - In Jesus there is power
John 6 - Jesus words are food for the eternal soul and give respite to the needy 
John 7 - Jesus stirs hearts and emotions wherever He goes. You will either accept Him or reject Him, but you can't ignore Him.
John 8 - Jesus offers freedom from all oppression
John 9 - Jesus controls and has dominion over the natural and unnatural. He can make the imperfect, perfect.
John 10 - Jesus is our ultimate source of security and peace of mind.
John 11 - Jesus has power over the supernatural and is a spiritual Houdini. He holds the keys to Heaven and Hell.
John 12 - Jesus likes to both work behind the scenes and to make grand entrances. But His timing in both is always perfect. There is a season for all things...
John 13 - Jesus is humble but not afraid of confrontation when it is needed. When it is needed, it is always doled out in grace and love.
John 14 - Jesus does not leave a man behind nor alone. He always makes sure we are cared for.
John 15 - Some people like fruit and some don't. Produce fruit anyway!
John 16 - Life is hard and this world can be nasty at times. Jesus works and thrives in the midst of the really nasty. he makes the “really nasty,” really clean and He does it from the inside and often in what is unseen.
John 17 - Jesus intercedes for us, we are not alone, and He desires unity among us.
John 18 - In the midst of rejection, betrayal, denial, and extremely prejudice persecution... Jesus holds firm to the truth and to His purpose. he takes solace in His destination.
John 19 - Jesus is one tough hombre! The world says, "you hurt me, I hurt you more..." Jesus says, "You hurt me, I love you more." (Father forgive them!!!)
John 20 - Jesus has dominion and power over death, and Hell. Because of the Resurrection, the cross has significance. Without the Resurrection, the cross means nothing.
John 21 - Jesus has control issues with a bit of O.C.D. tendencies, and trouble turning things over. He also has a bit of a flair for the dramatic.
