John was quick to point out that Christ did so many miracles that not all the books could hold them. John selected his miracles for a purpose. Here is an interesting article on
MIRACLES: Miracles of Christ Recorded in John's Gospel. The author believes the miracles John selected were to illustrate the qualities of God. Thus John gave one miracle per one quality.

John wrote AFTER all the other evangelists, and most of his writing is theology, although other things are included.
