Books with title John

Among the Gospels, John's is unique. It has a structure with long conversations and extended debates, and much of its content is not found elsewhere. Jesus' relationship to the Father and his teaching on the Holy Spirit are given special prominence. Ultimately, faith, believing in Jesus, is at the center―with signs highlighted to provoke faith, and stories of those who responded to Jesus as examples of faith. Colin Kruse ably shows how the Fourth Gospel weaves its themes of belief and unbelief into its rich Christology. The Tyndale New Testament Commentaries have long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelical scholars, these twenty volumes offer clear, reliable, and relevant explanations of every book in the New Testament. The original, unrevised text of this volume has been completely retypeset and printed in a larger, more attractive format with the new cover design for the series. These Tyndale volumes are designed to help readers understand what the Bible actually says and what it means. The introduction to each volume gives a concise but thorough description of the authorship, date, and historical background of the biblical book under consideration. The commentary itself examines the text section by section, drawing out its main themes. It also comments on individual verses and deals with problems of interpretation. The aim throughout is to get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today.

This is the seventh volume in the new ‘History in Fifteen Minutes’ series.Designed for first-time readers; ‘History in Fifteen Minutes’ gives the primary facts about the life and times of King John, one of England’s most maligned monarchs. The third Plantagenet king, John is frequently described as the worst king ever to sit on the English throne.John certainly had his faults. He seduced a twelve-year-old French princess, murdered his sixteen-year-old nephew, defied Pope Innocent III and was excommunicated. He also lost most of the English lands in France and broke his word after signing the Magna Carta.However John was in an invidious situation when he came to the throne. He was confronted by an aggressive king of France and an assertive pope. He was struggling to emerge from the shadows of his warrior father and brother, Henry II and Richard I. He was beset by barons who were trying to resist his demands for increased taxation to meet the inflation of the late twelfth-century.This work includes sections on:• Who was King John?• John’s Early Life• John becomes King• War with the French• Dispute with the Pope• The Barons’ War and Magna Carta• John’s Death.• An Assessment of JohnLove History?
