THE GOSPEL OF JOHN 2. THREE DECLARATIONS, ONE DECISION (John 1:19-34)

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN 2. THREE DECLARATIONS, ONE DECISION (John 1:19-34)

 

1. “I am a not”

a) a VOICE, not the WORD v23 & Isaiah 40:3-5
b) A MESSENGER, not the MESSIAH v23, 1:6-8, 3:28-29

2. “He is the Son of God”

v34 “and I have seen and born witness that this is the Son of God”
a) Holy Spirit ANOINTED (v32-33a) Matt 3:13-17, Isaiah 11:1-2, Isaiah 42:1
b) Holy Spirit BAPTISING (v33b) Joel 2:28, John 3:5

3. “Behold the Lamb of God”

a) Old Testament pictures of the Lamb: Genesis 22:8, Exodus 12, Leviticus 4:32-35, Isaiah 53:7
b) QUALIFIED to be the Lamb of God
  • Because Jesus is the God-Man (1:1-4, 14)
  • Because Jesus is spotless and sinless (1 John 3:5, Luke 1:35)
  • Because Jesus came willing to be slaughtered (Rev 13:8, 1 Peter 1:18-21)

4. One Decision

  • John 1:36-37 “…behold the Lamb of God!”
  • The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus”. Will you?
