Tim Keller | January 5, 2014
You can’t really understand the real Jesus if you only look at his birth and his death. You must also look at his words and his deeds during his life.
To study the words and deeds of Jesus, we’re going to look in the Gospel of John, starting with John 1. It’s one of the most famous passages of the Bible, with too much great stuff to possibly discuss it all.
So I’d like to give a top-level view of it, looking at the three main parts: 1) a radical, amazing claim, 2) the rejection of the claim, and 3) the answer to the objections to and rejection of the claim.

In The Prodigal God, Tim Keller examines the way Jesus presents the parable to speak both to those who run from God and to those who try to earn his love by being good. It reveals the heart of the gospel—a message of hope for both the rebellious younger brother and the judgmental older brother, and an invitation for all to experience God’s grace.
