Day 18 - John 11:1-15:17

The Apostle John spent the latter years of his life near the city of Ephesus in Asia Minor. While there, he filled his time preaching and teaching about Jesus Christ and over time, must have determined that in addition to the historical narratives of the life of Christ in the synoptic gospels, there was a need to present Christ as the Living Word, the unique Son of God.

This gospel, like all of John's writings was penned between AD 85 and 90. Some tend to place this gospel as early as the 60s and others as late as 150. However, the evidence points to the latter years of the 1st Century AD.

John also records how, some 50 or more years after these events occurred, he could so clearly state the explicit truth:

But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. (John 14:26, italics are mine)
