Product Description
The Bible singles out one disciple of Jesus as the one "whom Jesus loved" and a unique book called The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved takes a closer look at this beloved disciple and the special role he played in the life of Jesus. While many have been taught to believe that this was John, the Biblical evidence says otherwise.

Was this a case of mistaken identity? You're the jury, the only evidence allowed in the court is the Bible and the question to be answered is, Who was the disciple Jesus loved?

Using nothing but the Bible, The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved shows why John could not have been that beloved disciple. This book then goes on to reveal the true identity of this anonymous disciple and the one-of-a-kind gift from God that made this "other disciple" stand out from the rest. Get ready for a surprise - because the answer to this mystery is in the Bible, hidden in plain sight!

4.0 out of 5 stars It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. (Ps. 118:8) , August 14, 2006
Whoever the unnamed "other disciple, whom Jesus loved" was, one thing is true - as this book details, the evidence in the Biblical record proves that this unnamed other disciple was not the Apostle John. This is why those who seek to defend the unbiblical, man-made tradition that this unnamed other disciple was John are forced to rely on everything but the Bible, because there is not even one verse that would justify teaching this idea.

Critic `x' can make up screen names (I.B. Sadd/Sin Bigger/Jekyll Dog) to rant against the challenge that this book presents, but the one thing no defender of this tradition can do is cite scripture to justify teaching the John idea. This only proves what is stated in the book, that being that there is not a single verse of scripture that can be cited which would justify teaching the idea that the Apostle John was the one "whom Jesus loved".

Since there is no scripture that would justify presenting this tradition, those who wish to defend their continued promotion of this idea will use everything but the Bible in their attempts to defend this man-made tradition. They point to non-Biblical writings and act as if those that suggest the John idea can't be wrong. And as the Pharisees did in the time of Jesus, ridicule is used to discourage others from seeking the truth in God's word.

Those who have not a love of the truth or think that tradition must be defended at all costs and in spite of the facts, will shut their eyes to the evidence that shows that this unnamed disciple was not John, so this book is not for them. However those who love the truth will find that this book presents nothing-but-the-Bible in an effort to show that while the Bible is trustworthy and reliable, the same cannot always be said of the traditions of men.

Trust the opinions of men or the facts in the Bible. This book cites nothing but the Bible as it presents the Bible evidence on this question so that those who want to can decide for themselves what the Bible says (rather than adopting the ideas of non-Bible writings and assuming that they cannot be wrong). Search the scriptures or trust the tradition?

5.0 out of 5 stars NO OUTSIDE TEXT CAN TRUMP GOD'S HOLY WORD, January 11, 2004
By Lisa Sweeney (Newnan, Georgia United States) - See all my reviews
The Book "The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved" is exciting and full of GOD'S Truth.
God in His Holy Word - claims John did not write this gospel. Not Man - Man was the one that after 200 years decided to help God and place names on the Books in the Bible. John never placed his name on it.
This book walks you through ONLY the Bible scriptures to show you that John was not the gospel writer. He uses no outside text - why to prove that the BIBLE God's word hold the answers - if we are willing to Pay attention to every jot & tittle of His word. In addition, yes there is plenty of proof that John did not write this Gospel.
Our Bible Study group of 20 people went through each page and each scripture and we concur the finds are TRUE. John was NOT The Disciple Who Jesus Loved - but most importantly - that GOD still has things HE wants to teach us "IF" we allow Him to. This is an excellent book and 20 & people give it 5 stars- worth reading IF you really want to know GOD's truth.

Our Bible Group has grow so much and has also through this book been taught to pay attention to God's details in the scriptures.
PRAISES !!! For this book and for GOD'S grace to show us new things

5.0 out of 5 stars Be a Berean! , January 7, 2006
J. Phillips in this remarkable observance does not bend and break rules of scriptural interpretation, historical document interpretation and simple rules of logic as one accused him of. In fact, he had been thoroughly logically in all his arguements against the case of John being the beloved diciple. It's the theory of John that's not logical. The Bible had always pointed to the truth, and sadly, it's just now that someone had finally taken the time to observe it. When reading this book, be like the Bereans in Acts 17:11, and judge for yourself as you compare his arguements with those written in the Bible. And remember, seek the truth "not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual." -Cor. 2:13
