What are the four main parts of John 1?

Matthew 6

First we have Paul, who is one of Jesus’ disciples, telling us that there is no greater love than in Christ when he says, “My soul is not fully developed, except it be in me, to do all things for them who love me and have faith in my name.” (Romans 12). This means that if you truly believe in Jesus and love him, will go to his grave with you too; and so will he when he will die. He can also only do this through our grace. Peter tells us what is truly meant by death, but this is where we are confused because of modern-day interpretations of verse 7. First Peter writes that “the resurrection, perishable” (11) which may mean that you will rise again after your resurrection as God has already done before. Then he adds a second layer of meaning when he writes that “the resurrection, perpetual” (11). John the beloved is usually considered to be from the Garden of Eden, which means that he was probably part of Adam in the very beginning. However, this term could mean anything else. For instance, he might refer to Jesus Christ, or even just himself that had been born from the sun and rose to life on earth. In other words, if we think of Jesus having always existed from birth, then his resurrection can literally never end. Although it is technically true that his resurrection comes at some point later, the idea of Him being immortal could be an attempt to encourage people to follow Jesus instead of living their own lives. John the Lord is known to have said many times (6:14, 20–23; John 2; 4) and I will summarize the two main points: The first point is found in Luke 11:29–39: “The Kingdom of God shall be revealed to the end of time.” Now here we start to get into a bit of confusion. While Christians have interpreted these verses to mean that Jesus will save the world and return all human beings to their original state of humanity, Judaism does not really agree with this conclusion. They see it differently because John 8 talks about God’s covenantal relationship with man and so is an eternal promise to man, which could mean that since he did not make his promise then, it is still valid. Thus, since he did not come that way, we can see that these verses speak of a pre-Adamic relationship between man and god and show the promise of everlasting life for mankind. As such, they say that God gave His own life but promised to give his own flesh and blood in order for mankind to live. The second point is found in Genesis 3:16–27: “The Lord his servants ameth unto him, and his maids unto him, and he unto them; unto the day of redemption; to be the LORD: and to deliver souls and nations.” Let’s take a look at what this verse means, and why the Jews do not agree with the interpretation. If we take a closer look at Israel, Israel is the land occupied by the Jewish community but they did not really rule over it but rather their religion was dominant. As such, Jews believe that there is only one God, which is the creator of heaven and Earth. They also believe that there is a special covenant between man and God to keep man in harmony with each other so that God may continue to bless his holy city Israel. Therefore, since Judaism believes that God is given with the most precious commandment which makes him supreme above everything else: to preserve and build an everlasting kingdom for God’s own chosen children (the Jewish people), then in the verse, Jews claim that they are God’s servant and therefore deserve to receive eternal life as God would have wanted them to. The problem with both of these interpretations is that the Lord himself never gave up his promise of eternal life for mankind yet. On the contrary, the Jewish community never actually received it either. As such, they say and they believe that it’s their duty to fulfill their commitment to God and to not allow themselves to be taken advantage of for their own interests.

John 1

The Bible begins with John the Baptist, more commonly known as James, describing his vision from God in the form of a dream. After the Baptists began preaching, Jesus said to his followers, “Be not afraid, for I have appeared to you, and my voice is near to you, and it is with you that I see; and my presence is felt in Jerusalem, the temple Mount Zion, even though Jerusalem is now under siege, not even a wall shall separate you from me; and if Jerusalem, or any fortified place, shall fall into my hands, I will make an oath. I will defend it, I will not fail you; I will be a light to the world, that ye may be saved.” (John 13:33). What seems clear to the Christian reader is that Jesus is actually speaking from God about how the new world is ready to be redeemed. Instead of having people living in the darkness, God wants everyone to enter the light, which simply means that whoever stands against God must die. Thus, although Jesus doesn’t specifically tell his audience to leave Jerusalem and make an oath to defend it, he clearly shows the destruction that would happen if people continue not to listen. This is very different than the Jewish and Pagan interpretation because while all of they believe that those who oppose God must die because they cannot live, he is saying, “You will die, but the penalty shall be death, not for something like sin, but for loving the wrongdoer; you will suffer for the crimes you have committed,” which implies that those who refuse Him will be punished. The New Testament begins during Christ’s ministry, which is referred to as Pentecost. It can be seen that God used this stage to show His followers the promises of everlasting salvation and the fact that they can save their lives if they commit to following Christ. As such, He sent Christ down to the cross and led the people of Israel and Pilates into the sea to prove how they can save their lives that much faster for them to repent and repent their sins and to put an end to their suffering. To be able to walk out of the boat and save their lives, the Jews needed to unite their efforts before God because it wasn't until they were all together in one way that they could turn back. The bible starts to go into detail about the betrayal that was taking place and the death that would befall the innocent. As such, the book contains passages from the life and death of Jesus in the Book of John, which shows the betrayal that was taking place and the death that was coming at Christ’s close. John 2 John 2:9 begins with the phrase “the Son, with the power to bind and to redeem the world,” and this sets expectations straight that there has to be a savior to save mankind as well as Israel and the whole world. Unfortunately, a mistake in translation has changed the meaning of the word so that when translated the word is “savior,” which would rather mean saving and saving souls; to save the world as a whole. Consequently, the next verse of this verse reads “and to save the world through him, making a promise, to baptize the in his own body, and to perform the miracles of his feet,” which basically means that God is going to resurrect and redeem humanity. But, how exactly will people know they are redeemed? Well, the answer is found in verse 9:23–46, which says, “the hour is come, the judgment, the chief seat of Israel, upon whom all the nations of the earth sit.” Meaning that the Jewish people have just been wiped out by a major plague and as such, they have nothing left to hope for or to fight for. With the Jews gone, no one has anything to fight for so in verse 9:7–24, God says, “Behold, the Lord thy God, forsake all the world; for I have set thee free from the mountains, and from the hills, and from the valleys, and from the coasts, and from the seas beneath the heavens, in the wilderness, and in the desert; yea, according to my decree, all these things shall pass before me. And when I have passed, and the heavens have opened unto me, then shall I long, I and am thine forever.” At this moment, God asks that God is willing to forgive but with His own hand, all men will become forgiven. The key element that must happen before all men can be forgiven is that it will take many years until they all have a chance to repent and be forgiven. So it will take the Jews many years to repent and be forgiven. So in the meantime, Israel is going to struggle just to stay alive. A sign of this desperation is found in Verse 14 in John 2:4, which says, “Come unto me, all ye that believe. I am the Way, and the truth, and the life; come unto me.” Another important element of the work we are doing, and of the importance of this passage in general, is that this passage shows that Jesus actually made that promise to the Jewish people, and as such, as the promise, the Jews must be saved because there are no other ways to prove how good and kind they are. John 29 The last verse in John 2 is crucial for understanding how God wants all humans to act. It begins with an address to all believers to preach God’s word and live in unity. As such, he begins, “I
