John 3:22-36
John the Baptist's Greatest Message
Introduction: John 1:25-34
I. Jesus is the One to follow
vs. 22-26
“After
these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and
there He was spending time with them and baptizing. [23] John also
was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water
there; and people were coming and were being baptized— [24] for
John had not yet been thrown into prison.”
“[25]
Therefore there arose a discussion on the part of John's disciples
with a Jew about purification. [26] And they came to John and said to
him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you
have testified, behold, He is baptizing and all are coming to Him.””
II. Jesus is the Christ vs.
27-30
“[27] John answered and said, “A
man can receive nothing unless it has been given him from heaven.
[28] You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, ‘I am not the
Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent ahead of Him.’ [29] He who has
the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who
stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's
voice. So this joy of mine has been made full. [30] He must increase,
but I must decrease.”
III. Jesus is the Son of God
vs. 31-36
“[31] He who comes from above is
above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the
earth. He who comes from heaven is above all. [32] What He has seen
and heard, of that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.
[33] He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that
God is true. [34] For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God;
for He gives the Spirit without measure. [35] The Father loves the
Son and has given all things into His hand. [36] He who believes in
the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not
see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”
