"Jesus also did many other things. If they were all written down, I suppose the whole world could not contain the books that would be written."
John says that the whole world could not contain the books that would be written if every single thing Jesus did were written down. (Talk about a life of significance!) Yet despite all that could have been said about Jesus and his deeds, we have only four Gospels, and many of Jesus' actions are repeatedly reported. The Gospels, then, contain the nectar—the distillation of what is most important about Jesus. How might this knowledge shape the way you read the Gospels from now on?
