The Gospel of John was written by the Apostle John after the gospels were written by Matthew, by Mark for the Apostle Peter, and by Luke for the Apostle Paul. The fourth gospel was written to give a theological background to the life and ministry of the Lord Christ Jesus. The Apostle John began his gospel with the book of Genesis, -In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the word was God.- ----In John 3, Jesus made it clear that Nicodemus had misunderstood the Gospel of the Kingdom by misunderstanding the prophets. Throughout the Gospel of John, Jesus- seven miracles or signs made it clear that the Jewish people had been misled by the Scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees in their faulty understanding of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. Their refusal to embrace the clear teaching of Moses in the Law led them to reject their king, the Lord of Glory in John 19-1-16. ----In John 19-1-16 we also see Pilate introduced to Jesus Christ whom, after examining Jesus, He presents Jesus as the man without sin -1-11-. After further investigation, Pilate introduces Jesus as the King of Israel -12-16-.
