Who's the Man?

I recently finished a study on the gospel of John.  I decided to outline the book by chapter and interestingly I came up with the following list of just who this 'Jesus' is:

1.  Jesus is the Word of God
2.  Jesus knows hearts
3.  Life is in Jesus only
4.  Salvation and Jesus are the way for ALL people
5.  Jesus is judge
6.  Jesus is creator, sustainer, one must accept him alone
7.  Jesus will bring division among outwardly "religious" people
8.  Jesus is the truth who will set us free
9.  Jesus has the power over physical and spiritual blindness
10  Jesus is the good shepherd
11  Jesus has power over death
12  Jesus will die for us, His life, light, word exposes and judges sin by its very nature
13  Jesus is the servant of many, He knows all things, He is in control and thus glorified
14  Jesus is the way, truth, life
15  Jesus is the vine, we are the branches
16  Jesus came forth from God and is one with the Spirit and God  He has overcome the world
17  Jesus prays for his own
18  Jesus is betrayed--a guilty man is set free
19  Jesus is scourged, crucified, dead,  and buried
20 Jesus is risen!
21 Jesus ministers to his own

So that's what it said.
