John 20:30-31 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 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.

Is there any other book that makes this claim? I know of none. Thanks for being first to give the very obvious reason why John (God’s agent) wrote “The Salvation Bringing Message of God.” Isn’t it interesting that there are more manuscript fragments of John’s book than any other? Also, John never went to Egypt, yet more fragments were found there than any place else.

Please clarify what you mean by highlighting “these.” Is it that this is clear evidence other gospels had been written at the time of John?
