U3A Zoom Course R09, Course notes are now posted
|
Thank you for another successful term at U3A for R09 What the Bible is About.? A good outcome for the course is for each participant to re-read the Gospel of John at your own pace and in your own time with a better understanding of and appreciation for John's message.? If you can, pick a quiet place and time and reads the words aloud.
The emotive and personal words in this gospel speak to the heart, as well as the head if the reader allows.? John promotes the Deity of Jesus Christ and the believer's relationship with God the Father through Him.? Jesus is promoted as the 'Good Shepherd' and the 'Light of the World' because He is someone who identifies with and deeply cares for us and the trials that we go through as individuals.
John wrote this gospel for mature believers. The first twelve chapters lay out a definitive picture for them of who Jesus is and the salvation and peace that a relationship with Him can bring.? Many believers consider the Gospel of John to be a special book and real treasure that can speak directly to their needs in dark times by connecting directly to God's love.? The next time you despair of worldly things or find yourself questioning your own mortality, please consider making time to read John Chapters 1-12.
The complete course notes for this term covering John Chapters 1-16 are now posted at?
As always, any questions, comments, complaints, and/or recommendations will be gratefully received.
