t says exactly that: “ Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book.”

Quite simply, it doesn’t include everything Jesus did, meaning it is not a complete record.

I know that and I never claimed otherwise.

John 20:30-31 30 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

It DOES say that " but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name."

John acknowledged that there was more that Jesus did that wasn't written down, but what WAS written was written so that we might believe.

All that he wrote was all that was necessary to lead someone to belief in Christ.

So do you go to confession regularly? Or do you pik-n-choose the things God says to suit your own prejudices?

When you get done with that odd obsession with the sex life of the Holy Family that so many prods exhibit, you might try answering the above question.
