First Sign, First Witness

Send us Fan MailJohn the Baptizer was the appointed fore-runner prophet of the Messiah (Malachi 3:1-4; Isaiah 40:3; Luke 1:5-80). God sent him to proclaim the arrival of the kingdom of God through the Messiah.  John received the sign of water immersion for repentance for heart preparation to receive the Christ when he arrived. God told John that he would know for certain who this man was when he saw the sign of the Spirit coming to rest upon his head. When Jesus was baptized by John in the Jordan River the baptizer both saw the sign and heard the voice of God speaking to Jesus. After this he loudly announced regarding Jesus, "Behold the Lamb of God." The first sign was specifically given to John, and John in turn becomes the first witness, a confessor of Jesus as Messiah.Bible Insights with  Wayne ConradContact: 8441 Hunnicut Rd Dallas, Texas 75228email: Att.
