Jesus said He came to give people abundant life. The gospel of John has a vocabulary of about 600 words. The average 2 ½ year old has a vocabulary of over 600 words. John wrote to be understood. But make no mistake about it, John’s gospel is profound. And there are few things as profound as Jesus and Abundant Life. Abundant life involves Abundant Belief. The word “believe” occurs 101 times in this gospel. Abundant life comes through abundant belief in Jesus. Abundant life is a transformed life. John is known as “the Apostle of love.” But John wasn’t always known for his love. He and his brother James were known as “the sons of thunder” (Mark 3:17). When was John transformed into the apostle of love? This is one of the areas we will examine in our study. Abundant life is all about Jesus. The gospel of John introduces us to Jesus; Jesus as God; Jesus as Man; Jesus as God-Man, our personal Savior. Abundant life demands a decision. John writes that people would come to know and believe in Jesus and find life, eternal life in Him. John writes in a way that demands a verdict from the reader; a decision. He writes as though saying, “This is who Jesus is, do you believe in Him?” I invite you to join me in this life transforming study of the gospel of John. You’ll see Jesus like never before. And when you see Jesus, it leads to abundant life. So come on, find a quiet place, get a friend or friends to join you, get your Bible, pray, and then lets dig into what this gospel reveals about Jesus and abundant life.
