The Gospel According to John
The Bible Notebook THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN That you may know Him (John 20:31) Volume 4 Chapters 10-12 By Johnny L. Sanders, D. Min. DEDICATION To Dr. Paul Brown President, Hanibal LaGrange College (Retired) My mother thought you were a good role model for her son when he was called to preach the Gospel (She was a wise woman!) What a joy is to share memories of our friends from Sledge, Mississippi! Why I Love John, Chapter Ten For years, as I studied, wrote, and re-wrote verse by verse studies on one book of the Bible after another, I held one book in the back of my mind, promising myself that if the Lord gave me the time and the Holy Spirit led in that direction, I would one day write a verse by verse study on the Gospel According to John. We call it the Gospel of John, but in reality it is the Gospel of Jesus Christ According to John. Over the years, when someone asked, “What is your favorite book of the Bible?”, I probably said, “Whatever I am working on at the time.” I might have mentioned Romans, First John, Luke, Revelation, Genesis, Joshua, Isaiah, or Jeremiah. However, without a doubt, the one I am always drawn back to is The Gospel According to John. If I had to give one reason, I might quote John 3:16, but there is more to it than that. In Chapter One, there is the Prologue, in which we find a statement about Jesus that destroys all cults, all false religions, and heresies, as well as atheism and agnosticism.
