The Gospel Of John Resurrection

Many people ridicule Christians for believing in a man who resurrected from the dead. They laugh at Christians and criticize them for basing their faith on an event that lack proof and evidence. However, the evidence that skeptics use to challenge the Christian faith, in actuality, support the claims that Jesus truly was the God that he claimed to be. The evidence that affirms Jesus’ claims to be true include his lifestyle and teachings, the prophecies that he fulfilled, historical facts, and the dramatic transformation of the lives of his disciples. Many may ask Christians how they can believe in a Savior without proof of his divinity; but, in reality, God has given us an abundance of signs. He is still providing us with compelling evidence

The Gospels are a collection of books in the Bible that serve the purpose of sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ, give reason after reason to choose to believe, and stir the faith of believers. The Gospels are comprised of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. These books were written in the time period of 70-90 AD. These writings were highlighted by key events, including the birth, baptism, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The Gospels are firsthand experiences written down for encouragement and building up of faith of believers, but also to evangelize and share the Gospel with nonbelievers.

The gospel of Luke and John are gospels about Jesus and John the Baptist. They have several differences and similarities. The Gospel of Luke describes the conception and birth of John the Baptist and Jesus while the gospel of Luke describes their life after birth. Summaries, variances, and connections of these two gospels are discussed below.

John as we know today was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. He was also the brother of James, who was also an apostle. John was the son of Zeebee and of Salome. His father was a fisherman while living in Bethsaida in Galilee on the border of the lake Gennesareth. John's mother was one of many women who gave to the maintenance of Jesus Christ. John's parents were very good people, they loved God and his son. It is said that john and his brother James were fishing when Jesus came and chose them. They were soon known as the fishers of men. The John of whom I am talking about is John the Evangelist.

All of the Gospels describe the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, but each author illustrates the stories differently. Scholars believe Mark is the first Gospel written and is symbolized by a lion to denote Christ as powerful and fast-paced. The Book of John, understood to be the last gospel composed, is perceived as an eagle because the story differs greatly and is often more developed than the other Gospels. Comparing John 2 to the Gospel of Mark will depict unique themes and characteristics of Jesus.

In the faith of Christianity, their are four distinct disciples of gospel accounts. Each of the four gospels has its own unique contribution to shaping a precise picture of Jesus. Scholars have contributed a great deal to the understanding of the circumstances of their writing, along with the intentions of their authors. Their are two groups to which the gospels are separated by. The synoptic gospels and the gospel of John. Their are critical differences between these two groups when comparing the historical aspects. They are all differentiated by very tiny detail, but all of them tend to show prove how one was used to write the other. First will be the differences between the two groups. Second will be the the similarities between the synoptic gospels and the gospel of John.

The fourth Gospel, book of John, has been attributed to the apostle John (Harris, 2011, pg. 232). The apostle John was the son of Zebedee, and brother of James which are fishermen. They created a circle, including Paul and followed Jesus closely throughout all his transgressions. It was not until years later, leading churchmen accepted as John’s composition (Harris, 2011, pg. 233).

The Gospel of John was called the divine gospel by Clement of Alexandria, and Maximus the Confessor praised it for being “theology itself.” The Gospel of John presents the relationship between the Father and the Son as paradigmatic for the relationship between God and believer, as mediated through Jesus Christ. In Jn 5:17, Christ equates himself with the Father when he says, “My Father is still working and I also am working.” He emphasizes this saying, “just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whomever he wishes” (Jn 5:21). The Father judges no one but has given all judgment to the Son” (Jn 5:22). This equality with God shows the relationship of Christ with God the Father, and also later on becomes

defined any doctrines and creeds, before the New Testament was written. The gospel goes back before Jesus preached any sermons or performed any miracles, before Jesus was born in a manger, before Jesus was conceived in his mother Mary’s womb. The gospel goes back before the Roman emperor Caesar Augustus issued a decree that brought Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem, back before the founding of Rome. The gospel goes back before David ruled Israel, before Moses led slaves out of Egypt, before Abraham, before Noah. Back, back, back: before Adam and Eve or any human; before animals, birds, fish, or plants; before land or water; before earth or sky; before matter or energy; before any created thing; back, back, back through all ages to the very beginning. John’s gospel starts by saying, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us” (John 1:1,14).

Everyone, who has studied the Gospel, has heard of John the Baptist. He had prepared the way for Jesus’ ministry long before He came to earth. He was just a man, who baptized other people, who believed. There is a lot more to John the Baptist though.

Many of us were not alive at the time of Jesus’ resurrection, but it is still a hot topic all around the land, especially in light of the 50th anniversary of the amazing event. The story of Jesus and his resurrection is well known and has been passed down through generations depending on particular religious thoughts and beliefs. Another significant event that occurred approximately 50 days after his resurrection is Pentecost. Sources say that around 50 days after the resurrection of Jesus, a group of his followers, Apostles, were gathered in the great hall hoping to spread the word of God. It is then said that an abnormal gust of wind blew through the window, and suddenly tongues of fire appeared above each and every one of the Apostles heads, in turn allowing them to speak a number

The Gospel of John’s story about Jesus as the good shepherd successfully portrays an image of a divine Jesus. The high Christology present throughout this Gospel is evident through Jesus’ recognition of who he is. Unlike what we have seen in the other Gospels, there is no sense of secrecy or questioning; Jesus is who he says he is and everyone should believe what he says. While I value the message contained in these verses, I struggled with this selection of the text for two reasons: first, the way in which Jesus tells his story and second, the way in which John portrays Jesus.

The gospel of John does not follow the same line of the synoptic gospels, some people can say that this is something that runs against the apostle John’s account or we can see the gospel of John as a real complement for the synoptic and for the narrative of the Lord Jesus.

This essay will show contrasts in views on the Gospel of John regarding authorship,dates, and the relationship between John's Gospel and the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. Some comparison of thought, concerning composition and life setting, will also be presented.

The word "gospel" is a translation of the Greek word "euangelion" which means "good news. The first three books in the New Testament (Mark, Matthew, and Luke) are often referred to as the Synoptic Gospels (from Greek synoptikos, "seen together") They bear greater similarity to each other than any of the other gospels in the New Testament. Along with these similarities come some differences among the gospels, suggesting that each gospel was written for a specific audience and for a specific purpose. This paper will examine the resurrection of Jesus, while identifying the significant differences between Mark, Matthew and Luke. This paper will also analyze the differences to suggest the prominent theological perspective each gospel author
