Another interesting feature of John is his focus on Jesus as the “Son of God.” This theme actually has significant personal implications. While the Synoptic Gospels each use this title to refer to Jesus, John is the only place where Jesus uses this title Himself. Note the different uses of this title in these verses:
John 1:49 | John 11:4 |
John 3:18 | John 11:27 |
John 5:25 | John 19:7 |
John 10:36 | John 20:31 |
- What do you think John is emphasizing about the title “Son of God” as you read through these verses?
Another unique feature in John is the reference to Jesus as God’s “one and only Son” (John 1:14, 18; 3:16, 18). John explores the significance of this unique relationship between Jesus and the Father in John 17. Read this chapter and respond to the question below.
- How does your relationship with Jesus impact your relationship with the Father?
- How does your relationship with both Jesus and the Father impact your relationships with others?
