John's Creation

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

John's gospel has always been a mystery. The other three gospels give a similar description of Jesus' life and ministry, but John differs strikingly. Even the parables and miracles of Jesus which John describes are different! Why is this?

This interpretation reveals John has deliberately arranged his gospel as a reflection of the creation sequence from Genesis. John forsakes the simple diary format of the other gospels, rather portraying Jesus' character and journey in six discrete sections, each of which forms a spiritual manifestation of the physical element of the original creation by the Father.

We address these questions:
Does John's gospel really portray Jesus as the spiritual creation sequence?
If so, why? What is gained from appreciating Jesus this way?
How does perception of John's spiritual creation help us be better disciples?
