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
