"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 the whole world could not contain the books that would be written if every single thing Jesus did in his three years on earth were written down. (Talk about living a life of significance!) Yet despite all that could have been said about Jesus and all he did, we have only four Gospels, and many of Jesus' actions are recorded repeatedly. 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?
