The Fourth Gospel has variously been called the ‘Gospel of Grace', ‘of Love', ‘of the Divinity of Christ',and all these may be applied to it with equal aptness. Perhaps the most striking title is that of'Grace'. It is the Gospel of hope in our future glory and of our present bliss. We are presented in it with a a divinely optimistic view of life because it brings the message of God's infinite and eternal love for mankind. One cannot read it, seems and not deepen one's love of God. All this arises from its central theme, which is Restoration. It brings to sinful man new hope of sallvation.
