This was a huge topic during this time period and even today. Without John’s writing to confirm Jesus life through ministry and his divinity it would still not be clarified. The idea of who the “Messiah” was would still be in the air, important “I AM” statements of Jesus would be missing, and just the idea of “Who Jesus is” would not be the same without John’s writing. I think it is clear the John did not have access to the Synoptic Gospel and it was not just coincidence he did not. As stated without John’s writing there would be so many unanswered question about Jesus, giving God the idea to let John write his gospel based off the testimonies of Jesus and his teaching that John would see throughout his life, to better authentic who Jesus of Nazareth
