John
1:19-28
19 Now
this was John's Testimony
When the
Jews of Jerusalem sent Priest and Levites
To ask him
who he was.
20 He did
not Fail to Confess,
But
Confessed Freely,
'I AM
NOT THE CHRIST.'
21 They
asked him,
'Then who
are you? Are you Elijah?'
He said,
'I am not.'
'Are you
the Prophet?'
He
answered, 'No.'
22 Finally
they said, 'Who are you?
Give us an
answer to take back to those who sent us.
What do
you say about yourself?'
23 John
replied in the words of Isaiah the Prophet,
'I AM
THE VOICE OF ONE CALLING IN THE DESERT,
MAKE
STRAIGHT THE WAY FOR THE LORD.'
24 Now
some Pharisees
Who had
been sent questioned him,
25 'Why
then do yo Baptize if you are not the Christ,
Nor
Elijah, nor the Prophet?'
26 'I
Baptize with water,' John replied,
'BUT
AMONG YOU STANDS ONE YOU DO NOT KNOW.
27 HE
IS THE ONE WHO COMES AFTER ME,
THE
TONGS OF WHOSE SANDALS
I AM
NOT WORTHY TO UNTIE.'
28 This
all happened at Bethany
On the
other side of the Jordan,
Where John
was Baptizing.
(John
1:19-28)
Like John
the Baptist,
The Bride of
Christ is a Voice calling
In the
spiritual Desert of this Wicked World,
'MAKE
STRAIGHT THE WAY FOR THE LORD.'
For He is
Coming Soon.
