John's purpose in recording the resurrection of Jesus and His appearances to the different people was to demonstrate that Jesus' physical and bodily resurrection was the crowning proof that He truly is the Messiah and Son of God who laid down His life for His own people, past, present, and future. John believed and he wanted others to believe also.

No. They did not believe in a resurrection, and Jesus is the resurrection and the life, (John 11.25)

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die..."(John 11:25).
What became of the pharisee Nicodemus after Jesus' death and resurrection?
After the meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus at night. Nothing else is mentioned in the bible.Another answer:Nicodemus is mentioned twice more after his clandestine meeting with Jesus (John 7:50 and John 19:39), but scripture doesn't reveal what "became" of him after Jesus' resurrection. He is last seen providing the "myrrh and aloes" with which to treat Jesus' body for burial.
What evidence for the resurrection does John present?
The evidence that John presents for the resurrection of Jesus somewhat contradicts the evidence of the other gospels, but is closest to Luke, the synoptic gospel that John's Gospel most closely resembles.In John's Gospel, the risen Jesus appeared to the disciples in the upper room and showed them his wounds, but Thomas was not present. Eight days later, Jesus again appeared to the disciples, this time with Thomas present, and offered to let Thomas touch his wounds. These appearances, and the later appearance at the Sea of Galilee, are provided as evidence of the resurrection, and the wounds are the evidence that this really was Jesus, in the flesh.
What is the belief about Jesus?
"I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die" John 11: 25
What does the story of Jesus resurrection mean?
In John 11:25 Jesus says 'I am the resurrection, and the life, he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live'. He is the resurrection, the blessed hope of every Christian.Resurrection demonstrated that God accepted Jesus' sacrifice on our behalf. It guarantees that those who believe in Christ will not remain dead, but will be resurrected unto eternal life. That is our blessed hope
What was the struggle in the life of Jesus that John emphasizes?
John 20:30-31 is the author's unequivocal statement that his purpose was to demonstrate and illustrate the deity of Jesus-to show that Jesus was God. John does not identify himself until the end of the book (v. 21:20,24), where he states that he "is the disciple whom Jesus loved", that is, John the Apostle, the most intimate earthly friend of Jesus. Ancient tradition and unbroken subsequent opinions have recognized his authorship, until the rise of modern criticism. The same class of critics who deny the Virgin Birth of Jesus, His deity, and His bodily resurrection have concluded that the author was not John the Apostle but another John of Ephesus. They base their hypothesis on an ancient, vague mention of a certain John the presbyter (elder) of Ephesus. This theory which would undermine the value of the book as a testimony to the deity of Jesus, is based on such flimsy evidence that it does not deserve serious consideration by Christian believers.
Where in the Bible does it mention that JESUS ate fish after the resurrection?
Luke 24:36-43 and John 21:9-12
In what ways do the 4 gospels center on the suffering death and resurrection of Jesus?
The four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) focus on the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus by detailing the events leading up to his crucifixion, the crucifixion itself, and his subsequent resurrection. They highlight Jesus' teachings on the significance of his sacrificial death and resurrection for the redemption of humanity, emphasizing the fulfillment of prophecies and the establishment of a new covenant with God. The narratives underscore the theological importance of Jesus' suffering, death, and resurrection as central to Christian faith and salvation.
Did Lazarius have a wife?
Apparently not. The account of his death and resurrection by Jesus (John 11:1-45) makes no mention of a wife of Lazarus.
What are the similarities of Luke and John stories of the life of Jesus?
There are some similarities, but also many differences between Luke and John in the life of Jesus. In some cases, the timing of similar events has changed.Both have the mission of Jesus start with John the Baptist, although scholars have noted that John does not actually say that Jesus allowed himself to be baptised.Both have Jesus drive the moneychangers out of the Temple, but Luke says this happened at the end of the mission of Jesus, as a prelude to his arrest and crucifixion, while John says this happened at the very beginning.Luke and John are the only gospels that mention sisters called Mary and Martha, and the only gospels that mention Lazarus. Luke contains a brief story of Jesus visiting the sisters, while Lazarus is in a parable that mentions his resurrection hypothetically (Luke 16:20-21). John wrote an important episode, in which Jesus visited the sisters, Mary and Martha, and resurrected their dead brother, Lazarus (John 11:43-44). The coincidences of name, death and hypothetical or actual resurrection of Lazarus is strong evidence that the concept was taken by John from Luke's Gospel.John narrated an episode in which the risen Jesus appeared to the fishermen beside the Sea of Tiberias and, casting their nets on the other side, they caught so many fish that they could not bring them all in (John 21:1-14). This is really a repetition of the miracle catch of fish described by Luke as an event which took place at the same spot during Jesus' life (Luke 5:1-11).Only Luke and John have the apostle Peter run to Jesus' tomb and go in and find it empty. However, the author of John wished to downplay the role of Peter, so had "the disciple whom Jesus loved" run with him and be the first to look in and see the tomb empty, although he did not go inside.Luke and John have the risen Jesus appear to the disciples at a meal on the day of the resurrection. For Luke, Jesus appeared to the eleven remaining disciples and then took them out to Bethany, where he was taken bodily up to heaven on the evening of his resurrection. For John, Jesus appeared to ten of the remaining disciples, with Thomas absent. He appeared to all eleven, eight days later.
Who was thre aposlte that was absent during the first appearance of Jesus to His disciples after the resurrection?
Thomas. Please see John 20.24. - But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
