Who is better qualified to tell us about Jesus than John, the "disciple whom Jesus loved"? As John himself said, "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it... We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us...." (1 John 1:1-3 NIV)John wrote the Gospel which bears his name as a supplement to the other 3 Gospel accounts. Though John used simple language, the concepts and ideas he presents are anything but simple. His intent was to explain the significance of what Jesus said and did, that we may come to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. Beloved Witness is a practical commentary on John's Gospel. It explains the difficult passages and esoteric sayings in John in an informal, colloquial style. In addition, 18 maps and illustrations help provide context. Not only does this commentary explain and interpret the text of John's account, it emphasizes how we may apply what John wrote to our everyday lives.
