John 20:30-31 / David VanAcker

30 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

The big idea of this passage is that John explicitly states the reason he wrote his Gospel: To describe Jesus’ (miraculous, never-before-seen, from-God) signs, in order to convince his readers of Jesus’ (awesome, unequaled, infinitely glorious, incalculably gracious) nature, in order that we might receive (abundant, eternal, full, resurrection) life by believing. The main takeaways are to consider Jesus’ signs, believe in Him and have life, and share all of that with others that they too might believe and have life.
