Conservative Friends Bible Study of The Gospel of John #22
We trace John 12:27–13:11, where the crowd wrestles with the voice from heaven, Jesus names the judgment of the world, and the meaning of “light” moves from metaphor to a way of life. The basin and towel in John 13 reset leadership around humility, not status.
- The voice from heaven and the meaning of “lifted up”
- Crowd confusion about the Son of Man
- Walking in the light as conduct and trust
- Greek terms for light, darkness, and walk
- Day of visitation and the danger of hardened hearts
- Isaiah’s prophecy and free will
- Glory as approval versus God’s honor
- Salvation as healing and being made whole
- Prophetic speech as listening and obedience
- Foot-washing as the pattern of humble leadership
- Inward communion over outward ritual
