Gospel Of John C13-21 - Shalom Church Singapore

GOSPEL
OF
JOHN
Introduction
John
 13
 marks
 a
 turning
 point
 in
 the
 Gospel
 of
 John.
 From
 John
 2‐12,
 we
 are
 given
various
 presentations
 of
 Jesus
 in
 public
 ministry
 –
 we
 see
 Him
 performing
 various
miracles
(signs)
and
engaging
the
Jews
in
various
discourses.
From
John
13
onwards,
till
His
betrayal
and
arrest
in
John
18,
we
shall
see
Jesus
spending
time
mainly
with
His
disciples.
This
 section
 (John
 13‐17)
 begins
 with
 an
 account
 of
 Jesus
 washing
 the
 disciples’
 feet
and
predicting
Judas’
act
of
betrayal.
Then
there
is
His
farewell
discourse,
followed
by
His
highly
priestly
prayer.
We
 note
 in
 passing
 that
 John
 13‐17
 record
 events
 that
 took
 place
 during
 those
 few
hours
between
the
Passover
meal
Jesus
had
with
His
disciples
in
the
Upper
Room
and
His
arrest
in
Gethsemane.

A
new
commandment
I
give
to
you,
that
you
love
one

as
I
have
loved
you,

By
this
