John selects spiritual conversations that show that Jesus is the Messiah (4:26) and explain how one is saved by His vicarious death on the cross (3:14-16). Jesus repeatedly angers the Jewish leaders by correcting them (2:13-16); healing on the Sabbath, and claiming characteristics belonging to God (5:18; 8:56-59; 9:6,16; 10:33).
Yohana anachagua mazungumzo ya kiroho ambayo yanaonyesha kwamba Yesu ni Masihi (4:26) na kueleza jinsi mtu anaokolewa kwa kifo chake msalabani kwa sababu ya watu (3: 14-16). Anawakasirisha viongozi wa Wayahudi mara kwa mara kwa kuwarekebisha (2: 13-16); uponyaji siku ya Sabato, na kudai sifa zinazostahili Mungu (5:18; 8: 56-59; 9: 6,16; 10:33).
