“Since the Logos is noted as the agent through whom God made all things, it is appropriate that Logos be translated ‘Word’ rather than ‘reason.’ Speech goes forth, whereas reason is confined within.” (Page 20)
“He has a focus on life that includes three dimensions: physical life, spiritual life, and life eternal.” (Page 11)
“Moreover, Nicodemus came to Jesus by night. At least he was not trying to impress a crowd with his question. He was not trying to trap Jesus in order to belittle Him before an audience. But why did he come by night? Was he ashamed of being seen with Jesus? Or was it because he wanted to have some privacy after the rush and turmoil of the day was over? After all, the Jews were noted for using the night for the deepest of Scripture studies. Whatever the reason for it, Nicodemus was not afraid on later occasions to stand up for Jesus, first to raise questions about action to arrest Jesus (John 7:50–52), and then, finally, to assist Joseph of Arimathea in burying the body of Jesus (John 19:38–42). It took real courage to do that.” (Page 38)
“The bread of life is Jesus Christ himself. He satisfies the hunger of the soul; He brings true life to a spirit left lifeless by sin and separation from God; He makes righteous and sustains the relationship with God as bread nourishes the physical body. As long as Jesus holds His place in a person’s life, there will be no hunger nor thirst.” (Page 75)
“Another characteristic of John’s Gospel is the use of words that have double meaning” (Page 12)
