 Traditionally, the Gospel of John is attributed to John the Apostle, the son of Zebedee and brother of James. As one of Jesus’ twelve disciples and part of His inner circle alongside Peter and James, John had a front-row seat to Jesus’ ministry.

The Gospel of John is distinct from the Synoptic Gospels—Matthew, Mark, and Luke—in both content and style. Here’s a breakdown of how it differs, as well as its historical and cultural context and the original language in which it was written. 
How is the Gospel of John Different?

No Parables: John does not contain parables like the Synoptic Gospels. Instead, it features long discourses and symbolic language (e.g., “I am the Bread of Life”).

·        Fewer Miracles, Called “Signs”: John focuses on seven signs that point to Jesus’ divine identity, rather than a wide variety of miracles.

·        Focus on Jesus’ Identity: John emphasises Jesus as the eternal Word (Logos) and the Son of God. It’s more theological and less narrative-driven.

Unless the Lord Builds the House

Why Dedication to God Changes Everything

In a world that runs on ambition, deadlines, and self-made success, the ancient wisdom of Psalm 127 reminds us of a deeper truth: “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labour in vain.”

This verse, shared during a recent Sunday sermon, reveals a profound and often overlooked principle — true significance is found not in what we build, but in who builds with us. Whether it’s our careers, families, dreams, or homes, when God isn’t at the foundation, all our striving is ultimately empty.

Father’s Day
In a world where the definition of family is rapidly shifting, we must pause and ask: Where does the idea of fatherhood come from? Is it simply a social invention, or does it have a deeper, divine origin?

The Bible makes it clear: fatherhood is God’s idea. In Ephesians 3:14–15, Paul writes, “I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name.” The concept of fatherhood is not a cultural construct—it is rooted in God’s very nature, modeled in the relationship between the Father and the Son in the Trinity.
