2024 Truth Lecture: God's Power in John

Edited by Mark Mayberry and Kyle Pope

The Gospel of John is unique not only in content, but in its style and focus. It addresses issues of tremendous philosophical and theological depth but is penned with a simplicity of grammar and vocabulary that is unequalled in Scripture. In John we behold the beauty and accessibility of a Messiah of love and unimaginable power. The studies in this book are devoted to a focus on this amazing Gospel. These essays were first prepared for presentation at and promotion of the Truth Lectures, conducted by Truth Publications, Inc. on the campus of Athens Bible School in July of 2024. Each lecture considered a different aspect of God’s power as uniquely demonstrated in John. The reader will find rich lessons in this good material. We commend it to you for your study and edification.
