Date written: John the Gospel of John in AD 98 B. Internal Evidence #2: John 21:20-23 proves the gospel of John was written long after AD 70 1. "Lord, and what about this man?" Jesus said to him, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!" Therefore this saying went out among the brethren that that disciple would not die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but only, "If I want him to remain until I ... This perfectly explains why John felt the need to discuss this rumour about him when he wrote the Gospel of John in AD 98.

This is the deceiver and the antichrist." From the Bible we can clearly see 3 things. First, the "antichrist" is defined as anyone who doesn't believe Jesus is the divine son of God.

3 Old Testament Antitypes of the blood of Christ Jesus is liken in the Old Testament to many types. We are most familiar with Jesus being likened unto a lamb. This type comes from Exodus 12. The Passover lamb is actually the type of Jesus as the lamb of God. The first Passover feast eaten by the Jews in Egypt was to become a memorial feast for the people. The Lord's Supper (communion) is the New Testament corresponding type to Christ. Both the Passover feast and the Lord's supper have many things in common. They had the same meaning: (A memorial: Passover was to remember Egypt, while the Lord's Supper, to remember Christ's death Ex 12:26/1 Cor 11:25) Each feast used a young, innocent and perfect lamb: (Ex 12:5/ John 1:29; 1 Pe 1:19) ...

Why Be Baptized? Nowhere in the Bible is the action of Christian baptism described as being anything other than "a burial", or an immersion in water. In Mark Chapter 1, verse 5, we find that John baptized in water. The passage reads, "And there went out unto him all the land of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan...".

This is crucial for any enterprise, the religious as well as the economical, educational, or political. While organization involves potential dangers, no movement can hope to survive without it. Christians are generally agreed that the heart of the gospel - "Jesus is Lord!" - is a central truth which begs for proclamation, both far and near, in word and deed.

How to Pray Acceptably Lord wants our prayers to be continual (I Thessalonians 5:17) and in a spirit of repentance (Luke 15:18-21). Obedience- is a necessary ingredient. God answers prayers of those who know, obey, and keep his commands. "If you ask, keep my commandments" (John 14:14,15; I John 3:22). Christ, himself, is an example of this (John 8:29). Without faith we cannot acceptably approach God in prayer (Mark 11:22-24; Hebrews 11:6; James 1:6). An unforgiving spirit can erase the power of prayer (Matthew 6:14,15).
