What did the eight signs in the Gospel of John show about Jesus?
The eight signs in the Gospel of John were given to prove Jesus was the Son of God. They showed Israel that He was not only the Son of God and the Messiah, but also the answer to their every need, with ramifications for the nation of Israel.
Les teaches that the whole purpose of the eight signs in John was to prove that Jesus was the Son of God. They also had ramifications on the nation of Israel. All of those signs were given to show Israel that not only was He the Son of God, not only was He the Messiah, but He was the answer to their every need. Peter later rehearsed this, declaring that Jesus of Nazareth was delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God and was crucified and slain by wicked hands.
