The Gospel of John thrills and challenges us with the vast scope of its opening sentences. By deliberately using words and phrases which recall the beginning of the Book of Genesis, John has powerfully reminded us that the life and ministry of Jesus Christ is not confined by place or time. In this Gospel we meet a figure whose significance spans infinity and eternity. As our Bible studies will make clear, Jesus’ rightful claim to the divine title ‘I am’ is a sign that he bridges the past, present and future just as he bridges Jew and Gentile, men and women.
