The gospel of John was written to reassure Christians at the end of the first century that their faith was reasonable. Jesus was more than just a man--he was God come in human form. And so they could be sure that Jesus was still in control of the world--they had not been abandoned. Is this assurance still available to us today?

The very reason sections of scripture like this are included in the narrative are simply to demonstrate that the greatness of the Kingdom of God comes through the hands of people who are willing to serve. It is vitally necessary to listen, hear, and respond to the call of God on my life. Regardless of my age, my ability or my knowledge. Passion and willingness is enough. Your life is fundamentally void of the goodness of God if you are not involved and invested into his mission on earth If you are still breathing air, you still have power and ability to serve the Lord and allow him to use you for his purpose and greatness. More than 85% of the NT would not exist if Jesus never included other people in the mission. Sequentially, 85% of the NT would not exist if those who heard the call never answered. The work and movement of the church today directly hinges on the people of God recognizing the call and surrendering their willingness to be involved. There comes a moment in life when you must say no to something so you can say yes to the Lord.

OT saints provide examples for today's believers to endure trials by faith that result in victory, that model faithfulness, and show how to live in God's promises.
