A Theological Study In I John (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781105539510)

John's name means "whom Jehovah loves" and seems to be appropriate for this apostle. His experience with Christ corresponds to this meaning and he even calls himself "the apostle whom Jesus loved." (John 13:23) John's parents were Jewish believers. His mother followed Jesus and ministered to Him. His mother was at the Cross and was among those who went to anoint the body of Christ for burial. John was not a poor person, as some suppose, since his family owned a ship and were prosperous enough to hire servants. John was the youngest of the disciples that Jesus called, but was, nevertheless, a part of the "inner circle" of Christ. John wrote five books of the New Testament: The Gospel of John, I, II and III John and The Book of Revelation. John became a major influence in the life of the early Church as the pastor of the church at Jerusalem and later in Ephesus. He was a man of doctrine and wisdom.
