Few verses in the Bible have been quoted more-or
understood less well-than Jesus' promise in John 10:10.
Prosperity preachers have used it to promise financial
abundance. Others have reduced it to a future reward
waiting beyond death. Neither reading does justice to
what John actually wrote.
This book traces the theme of life through the whole of
John's gospel-from the Prologue's declaration that
"in him was life" to the final invitation to believe and
receive. What emerges is a portrait of abundant life
that is more demanding and more glorious: relational
rather than transactional, present rather than merely
future, and shaped by the cross that makes it possible.
Life to the full has already begun.
