 John the Apostle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John was traditionally held to be the author of five books of the New Testament, including the Gospel of John.
John the Apostle (יוחנן "The LORD is merciful", Standard Hebrew Yoḥanan, Tiberian Hebrew Yôḥānān) was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus.
Christian tradition proclaims he is the same John who wrote the Gospel of John (known as John the Theologian and John the Evangelist) and that he also wrote the Book of Revelation (formally called Apocalypse of St. John the Divine) (John the Divine).

 Ancient Egypt- The light of the world - by Gerald Massey- Book X! - Egyptian wisdom in the Revelation of John the Divine
The position of Aan, the divine scribe, in relation to Horus, the only-begotten son of God, is repeated on behalf of John in the Gospel.
Thus the book ascribed to John the divine purports to contain “the Revelation of Jesus Christ”=Horus, that was given him by God the Father to show unto his “bond-servants”, and these bond-servants answer to the seshu or servants of Horus in the original scripture.
John is in the isle of Patmos, “for the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus”.

 Feast of St. John the Divine
John went with Peter to the palace of the high priest after Jesus was arrested -- but it was John alone among the Apostles who stayed with Christ during the Crucifixion.
St. John was the son of Zebedee and Salome, and the brother of St. James the Greater (Feast day: 25 July) who, together, were given the nickname "Boanerges" ("Sons of Thunder") by Christ Himself.
John and James were disciples of St. John the Baptist when they encountered the One of Whom the Forerunner spoke.

 Saints of December 27
Written later than the Synoptic Gospels, the Gospel of John is highly theological and stresses the divinity of Christ, possibly as a counter to the Docetist heresy.
John, the "beloved disciple" of our Lord (John 13:23; 19:26; 20:2ff; 21:7; 21:24), is said to have written the Book of Revelation, the last book of the Bible, while exiled on the island of Patmos off the coast of modern Turkey.
John must have remained in Jerusalem a number of years after Jesus' Ascension, though he sometimes preached abroad, for Saint Paul some years after his conversion met him there and John confirmed him in his mission to the Gentiles.

 St John The Evangelist
St John The Evangelist, who is styled in the gospel, The beloved disciple of Christ," and is called by the Greeks "The Divine," was a Galilean, the son of Zebedee and Salome, and younger brother of St. James the Great, with whom he was brought up to the trade of fishing.
John never forsook him; and many imagine that he was the disciple who being known to the high priest, got Peter admitted by the servants into the court of Caiphas.
John died in peace at Ephesus, in the third year of Trajan (as seems to be gathered from Eusebius's chronicle), that is, the hundredth of the Christian era, or the sixty-sixth from our Lord's crucifixion, the saint being then about ninety-four years old, according to St. Epiphanius.

 St John Evangelist
John withdrew from the gruelling pace of preaching in favour of the solitude of the beautiful island of Patmos in the Aegean Sea.
After leaving Patmos, John turned up at Ephesos, where, in the course of writing the three epistles contained in the New Testament, he is said to have caused, through means of a prayer vigil, the destruction of a pagan temple dedicated to Artemis which is now the site of a beautiful cathedral.
Unlike the other eleven apostles, all of whom were martyred in the name of Jesus Christ, John lived to the ripe age of 105, escaping the fate of his brother evangelists.

 Wired 7.06: Sir John's Divine Gamble
Although Sir John is a Christian, this approach to religion makes little use of the story of the crucifixion, or of that aspect of Christianity that exalts a suffering and downhearted Son of God.
Sir John acknowledges that most religious denominations, and most religious individuals, would reject the notion that the essential doctrines of their faith could be improved or amended through research.
The world's great faiths, says Sir John, teach their adherents to be generous, temperate, and optimistic, to remain calm in the face of trouble, and to have no fear of death.

 The Gospel of John
The Gospel of John and the Hellenization of Jesus
Kysar states concerning the dating of the Gospel of John: "Those who relate the expulsion to a formal effort on the part of Judaism to purge itself of Christian believers link the composition of the gospel with a date soon after the Council of Jamnia, which is supposed to have promulgated such an action.
There is a case to be made that John, the son of Zebedee, had already died long before the Gospel of John came to be written.

John was a participant in the Council of Jerusalem (49), at which the church determined that Gentiles are not subject to Mosaic practices.
Thought to have been the youngest of the twelve apostles, John was the son of Zebedee and of Salome, one of the women who went to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus.

 The Revelation of St John The Divine - Godshew.org
Albeit John shares many truths, but Paul reveals "a little leaven leveaneth the whole lump"; And there's a little leaven in the "verily verily" writings of John surnamed Mark and also called one of the "sons of thunder" who moved the ten to "indignation", not to mention all twelve were upbraided for their "unbelief".
John's gospel account seems to imply John, although not named, is more beloved (more favored), but such is only 'according to' John; For both Paul and converted Peter affirm that God hath "no respect of persons" (God has no favorites).
Not when he is named as the subverter of churches, surnamed Mark, called a son of thunder, and writes a "verily verily" gospel which portrays him as more beloved than other apostles.

 St. John the Divine
Throughout the Middle Ages, John the Evangelist, identified as the author of both the Book of Revelation and the most profound and theologically informed of the four Gospels, provided monks and nuns with a figure of inspiration and an exemplar of vision and virginity.
Rather than the historical apostle, this book's protagonist is a persona of the Evangelist established in theology, the liturgy, and devotional practice: the model mystic, who, by virtue of his penetrating insight, was seen as having become a mirror image of Christ.

I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
