The Lion of Judah
B.

Explanation The Gospel of John presents Jesus as "The Light of the World," a significant metaphor used to describe His divine nature and mission. This characterization emphasizes Jesus’s role in illuminating spiritual truth and life to humanity, contrasting spiritual darkness. John 8:12 directly quotes Jesus saying, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life," encapsulating this theme that runs throughout the gospel. This depiction aligns with John’s overall theological emphasis on Jesus as the divine Logos (Word), bringing light and truth to the world.

Rate this question:
17.
The royal official begged Jesus to come and raise his son from the dead.
A.
True
B.
False
Correct Answer
B. False
Explanation The statement is partially accurate but needs clarification. In the biblical account from the Gospel of John (John 4:46-54), the royal official (or nobleman) begs Jesus to come and heal his son, who was close to death, not already dead. Jesus does not go to the official's home but instead heals the son remotely by telling the official, "Go; your son will live." The official believes Jesus, and upon returning home, he finds that his son has recovered at the exact moment Jesus had spoken. This story demonstrates Jesus's authority and ability to heal from a distance, rather than raising someone from the dead in this specific instance.
