The first name Johannes, which we encounter here, has been widespread since biblical times, so it should not surprise us to find a stately number of blessed and saints with this name over the two millennia of Christianity. At the threshold of the Old and New Testaments, we encounter John the Baptist (also Johannes Baptist), to whom most St. John's churches are dedicated. But one of the four men who wrote the Gospels of the New Testament also bears this name. This house of God in Großwinternheim is dedicated to him, JOHN THE EVANGELIST. A long ecclesiastical tradition has regarded the Evangelist as identical with the Apostle John mentioned in the Bible, but this is doubted in modern biblical scholarship. "The Gospel of John exerts a peculiar fascination. It is difficult to escape its solemn, sometimes mystical language. It addresses deep human needs and longings: hunger and thirst, the search for fulfilled eternal life, the longing for personal communion with God." (Franz-Josef Ortkemper)
