Editor of The Congregationalist. | The first great teaching of the | Gozpel of John is concerning God {and his revelation of himself in hu- man life:"In the beginning wis the Word, ald the Word was with God, and the Word was God." How this Word found expression in the life ard teaching of Jesus of Nazareth is the theme of the Gospel. It is the purpose of the Gospel to set forth the various elements in the witness and testimony of, and to Christ; the witness of his:own gracious personality winning disci- ples to himself and establishing the little circle that became the nucleus of the Christian Church; the witness of various individuals who came un- der the power of his ministry; the | | oe | | .| witness of Jesus' mighty works; and the witness, above all, of his sub- lime teachings, of his sacrificial death, and of his resurrection. The great theme of this Gospel is the new life, It is manifest in the experience of Andrew and Peter, Philip and Nathaniel, whose hearts glow with a new joy as they come under the influence of their divine friends. It is the theme of the con- versation of Jesus with Nicodemus. It dominates the story of his great sermon to the woman of Samaria, with its insistence upon the most fundamental of all truths, that God is spirit and that they that worship him must worship him in spirit and fa truth. -- Typical Verse, Possibly the most typical verse to characterize. the whole Gospel of John is found in the words of Jesus: "The words that I speak unto you they are spirit, they are life." How significant this statement becomes is seen as we follow through the in- timate teachings of Jesus concern- ing his relationship to men and God. God is the Good Shepherd, lay- irg down his life for his sheep that they may have life and salvation. He is the way to God, bringing im- mortality to light and triumph. And the resurrection is but the seal and witness to his teaching and revela- tion, The theme of the Gospel of John is the divinity of Christ. But we ought to realize how beautifully this Gospel sets forth his true humanity and the rich intimacy of his rela- tionship with men and women in the ordinary walks and experiences of 1ife. Not only have we the glorious revelation of the upper room, but we have the picture of the sympa thetic. .

He is divine to make us divine, and whether or not the words came from the same writer, the comment in John's Epistle is a true rendering of the whole spirit and purpose of John's Gospel: "Beloved, mow are Wwe the sons of God, &nd it doth not yet appear 'what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall se¢ him as he is." Expressing Divinity. It is entirely in 'harmony with the purpose of Christ in coming to the world that his divinity should thus be vitally expressed in human contacts and in terms of human ex- perience. The divinity of our Lord is not a theoretical speculative thing, something about which men may engage in controversy and quarrel. All the divinity of his Jife wa¥ revealed before men that he might show them the way to God. No man truly Believes in the div- icity of Jesus who fs not seeking through close contacts with Jesus to make his own life divine. It is the privilege of Christ's disciples to become "partakers of the divine na- ture." We cannot be too insistent upon thé richly human aspects of John's Gospel. Many have tended to think of Luke's Gospel as pre-eminently eypressing the humanity of Jesus, but all the Gospels express that hu- manity just as they express the glory and beauty of his divinity: In the twentieth chapter of John's Gospel there is a verse that is rich in its fullness of expression. It tells how Jesus came to the disciples at- ter his death, and very simply it says: "Then were the disciples glad when they saw the Lord." Ought not that to be the ideal for every Chris- tion to find the gladness pf seeing the risen Christ? - The Gospel of John has been one of the most controverted documents in Christendom. Who wrote it no one can say with assurance, Ever against the tradition that John liv- ed to a great old age there is the strong bellet of some scholars, upon what they regard as good evidence, that John was one of the earliest of the Christian martyrs. But, whoever wrote it, the Gos- pe! of John is a profou=d and noble document. Interpret it, as one will, it speaks of the deepest things of the soul and it is in it that pre- | eminently Jesus appears as the way to God, the bond between earth and heaven.
