I
I. John the Baptist Testifies to His
Disciples Concerning Jesus (vv. 29.
84).
1. Jesus as the Lamb of God (v. 29).
"Lamb" was familiar to the Jewish
mind. It denoted a substitutionary
sacrifice for sin. Christ was the true
' Iamb, to which every sacrificial offer- j
<v Ing pointed. He was the lamb which i
Israel showed should be brought to the i
slaughter (Isa. 53:7), upon whom the
Lord laid man's iniquity. Christ was
Go^s lamb because he was the one
set apart from the foundation of the
world to make atonement for man's
sins (1 Fet 1:18-20). John invited his j
disciples to behold the Lain!/ of God. j
2. * The Baptizer with the Holy i
Ghost (w. 30-35).
The Spirit descended upon him as
Isaiah said (Isa. 11:2). John then
knew for a certainty that he was the
baptizer with the Holy Ghost. The
Same Holy Spirit will be given to all
who ask for him (Luke 11:13).
3. Jesus is the Son of God (v. 34).
Being the son of God he is one in nature
with God.
II. Two Disciples Following Jssus
(vv. 35-37).
As a result of the Baptist's testimony,
two of the disciples leave him
and follow Jesus. At John's request
they looked. This look was sufficient
to induce them to follow Jesus. A
sincere look upon Jesus is always
sufficient. John did not become en.vious
of Christ's success, but rejoiced
in it (John 3:26-29). All Sunday
school teachers should so witness
that the pupils will look to and follow
Jesus. This is the whole method, the
sum and substance of salvation.
lit. The Disciples Abiding With
Jesus (vv. 38, 39).
Seeing the disciples following him,
Jesus made inquiry as to their object.
Their ?reply showed the desire to go
apart prifately where they could disclose
their hearts to him. He invited
v them to his abode, where for the remainder
of that day they enjoyed sweet
intercourse with him.
IV. The Disciples Bringing Others
to Jesus (vv. 40-42).
Having found by experience what
fellowship with Jesus means, they go
at once and tell others of their priceless
treasure.
1. Andrew brings Peter (vv. 40-42).
Peter was Andrew's brother. A true
brother who has found Christ will go
and tell his brethren. The proper
place to begin witnessing for Christ is
among one's kinfolk (Luke 8:30).
(2) Philip brings Nathaniel (vv.4345).
He witnessed to him concerning
the messiahship of Jesus. Hetoid them
that Christ was he of whom Moses and
the prophets did speak. Christ is the
sum and substance of the Old Testament.
The disciples invited others to come
and see. They knew that if they
would but put Jesus to the test they
would believe. Christianity courts investigation
(John 7:17).

The comparative scarcity of squares
