In keeping with the special theme of this fourth gospel: -
► It is here we have the full unveiling of Christ's Divine glories.
► It is here that we behold Him dwelling with God before time began and before ever the creature was formed.
► It is here that He is denominated “The only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
► It is here that we read of John the Baptist bearing record “that this is the Son of God.”
► It is here that we read “This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth His glory.”
► It is here we are told that the Saviour said, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
► It is here that we learn that “The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.”
► It is here He affirmed, “I and my Father are one.”
► It is here He testifies, “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.”
► It is in this gospel we hear Christ saying, “For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will. For the father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: that all should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father.”
