The Gospel According to John.The Gospel of John, emphasizes the meanings of the events in the Gospels. John records much of what is still unsaid. John portrays Jesus Christ as the Son of God, tracing Him back not to Abraham or Adam, but before time. In fact, John is called the Genesis of the New Testament. There is no genealogy, manger scene, boyhood, baptism, temptation, Mount of Transfiguration, or Gethsemane in the book of John. There are no lepers, publicans, demoniacs or parables. The Gospel of John was written with the Church in mind.The Gospel of John is a great book for new Christians to read and study. The language of the book is simple, and the vocabulary is small. Six hundred words from John's vocabulary were used in this book. This is equivalent to the mind of a child seven years of age. Mark wrote for the busy Romans. Whereas Matthew emphasized the King, Mark presented the Servant, ministering to needy people. Luke wrote his Gospel for the Greeks and introduced them to the sympathetic Son of man.
