Abundant Life Bible Amplifier, The--John / Paulien, Jon / (PB/1995-1995/B/USED)

*Condition Note: Book is clean and has been very used and has moderate wear on cover and spine.*

Of all the disciples, John seems to have responded most fully to the love and deepest messages of Jesus. It is no surprise, then, that of all the Gospels, many today respond most fully to John's record of Christ's Life.

In John's Gospel, we are introduced to Jesus as John knew Him: approachable, yet all-powerful. A Creator driven by a love beyond all description to save those to whom He had given life. And giving life, John makes clear, was the great passion of Jesus during His brief stay here on Earth.

John was the last of the apostles. With his death, a new generation would exist without a living connection to Jesus. Jon Paulien, points out that the purpose of the Fourth Gospel is to persuade the second generation of Christians that the lack of a living apostle is no barrier to their Christian experience. Paulien helps us see his purpose as the explanatory key to a deeper understanding of John's Gospel.
