Jesus is the way to the father. "If you truely love me you will obey my commandments" (John 14.15).
Jesus is the light of the world (John 7.12).
O The temptation of Jesus after his baptism by John: Why is it only recorded in 3 of 4 gospels (ommited in John 1.29)?
-The book of John is the last book written and it is meant to reveal a different perspective and vision of the teachings of Jesus.
O Why was this the only time Jesus was tempted by satan?
-This was the only time that it was written that Jesus was tempted by satan, we don't know if there were other times in his life that he had been tempted.
O Why does the Book of John have so much about the Holy Spirit?
-The promise of the Holy Spirit (John 14.15).
-The work of the Holy Spirit (John 16).
-The reason why is because John was the beloved of Jesus. He was closest to Jesus, thus he possibly knew the holy spirit best out of all the disciples.
O What is the Holy Spirit?
-The counselor, the helper, the messanger sent to Jesus, then to humanity at his cruxifiction (john 16).
-The healing power/source that came from Heaven down to Jesus at his Baptism. From that point on Jesus could preform miracles, along with start his ministry.
-The spirit that reveals god's truth and glory, and leads us on the path of Holiness/Jesus.
O How come in the old days of Moses, only certain animals, such as Lambs, Goats, and Doves are suitable for sacrifice?
-These animals are holy above all other animals. Their sacrifice is most pleasing to the Lord.
-Doves symbolic of Holy Spirit/purity.
-Sheep/Lambs symbolic of Christ
-Goat sybolic of passing on sin
O What is Heaven described as?
-Heaven was described by Jesus as the Father's House; where we can live in happiness, peace and security.
-In Heaven there is only day because Jesus is the light and his love rules there.
