Hlangana noMphostoli uJohane: 'Umfundi Owathandwa NguJesu'
Umphostoli uJohane waba nomehluko wokuba umngane othandekayo kaJesu Kristu, umbhali wezincwadi ezinhlanu zeTestamente eNtsha nezinsika esontweni lokuqala lobuKristu.
UJohane nomfowabo uJakobe, omunye umfundi kaJesu, babengabadobi oLwandle lwaseGalile lapho uJesu ebabiza ukuba bamlandele. Kamuva bajoyina umbuthano ongaphakathi kaKristu, kanye nomphostoli uPeter. Abathathu laba (uPhetro, uJakob noJohane) babenelungelo lokuba noJesu ekuvukeni kwendodakazi kaJayirus kwabafileyo, ekuguqukeni komzimba nangesikhathi sokugula kukaJesu eGetsemane.

Ubudlelwano obudlule noJoseph Caiafa babuvumele uJohn ukuba abekhona endlini yompristi omkhulu ngesikhathi sokuqulwa kwecala likaJesu. Esiphambanweni, uJesu wanikeza ukunakekelwa kukanina, uMariya, kumfundi ongashiwongo igama, cishe uJohn, owamyisa ku ikhaya lakhe (NgokukaJohane 19: 27). Ezinye izazi zithi kungenzeka ukuthi uJohane wayengumzala kaJesu.
UJohn wakhonza isonto laseJerusalema iminyaka eminingi, wabe esefudukela esontweni lase-Efesu. Inganekwane engaqinisekisiwe ithi uJohane walethwa eRoma ngesikhathi sokushushiswa futhi waphonswa emafutheni abilayo kodwa kwavela kungalimalanga.

Isebenzisa iziqu eziningi ezingokomfanekiso kuJesu, njengeWundlu likaNkulunkulu, uvuko nomvini. Kuyo yonke iVangeli likaJohane, uJesu usebenzisa ibinzana elithi "Nginguye," aziveza ngaphandle koqobo noJehova, uNkulunkulu omkhulu "NGINGUYE" noma uNkulunkulu waphakade.
