Matthew 3:1-17

1 Now in those days John the Immerser comes, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 2 and saying, Repent; for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near. 3 For this one is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying, ‘A voice is crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord, make*\'b0 his paths straight.’ 4 Now John himself had his outer clothing made of camel’s hair and a leather belt around his loin, and his nourishment was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then Jerusalem and everyone in Judea and everyone from the region around the Jordan were traveling out to him. 6 And they were being immersed by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins. 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his immersion, he said to them, Offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the future wrath? 8 Therefore produce fruit worthy of repentance. 9 Do not think to say among yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; for I say to you, that God is able to lift up children out of these stones for Abraham. 10 But even already, the ax is laid to the root of the trees, because every tree which is not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
11 I indeed immerse you in water toward repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not sufficient to bear. He will immerse you in the Holy Spirit; 12 whose winnowing fan is in his hand, and he will be thoroughly cleansing his threshing floor, and he will be gathering his grain into the barn, but the chaff he will be burning up with unquenchable fire.

16 And Jesus when he was immersed, came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God coming down, like a dove, and coming upon him; 17 and behold, a voice came out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted.

Make*\'b0 his paths straight. 5 Every valley will be filled and every mountain and hill will be humbled.

Who warned you to flee from the future wrath? 8 Therefore produce fruits worthy of repentance and do not begin to say among yourselves, We have Abraham as our father; for I say to you, that God is able to lift up children to Abraham from these stones. 9 Now the ax is also already destined toward the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree which is not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

6 It happened that a man came, having been sent from God, and his name was John. 7 This one came to be a witness, in order that he might testify concerning the light, in order that all should believe through him. 8 He was not the light, but came in order that he might testify concerning the light.

John 1:15-36

15 John testifies concerning him and has cried, saying, This one was he of whom I spoke, He who is coming after me, has become before me, because he was first, then me. 16 And we all received out of his fullness and favor in exchange-for favor. 17 Because the law was given through Moses; the favor and the truth became through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has seen God at anytime; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, that one has described him.

And he says, I am not.
Are you the prophet?
And he answered, No.

26 John answered them, saying, I immerse in water, but one is standing in your midst whom you do not know. 27 It is he who is coming after me, who has become before me. I am not worthy that I should loose the strap of his shoes. 28 These things happened in Bethany beyond-that area of the Jordan, where John was immersing.


29 On the next-day he sees Jesus coming toward him and says, Behold, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world! 30 This one is he, concerning whom I said, A man is coming after me who has become before me, because he was first; then me. 31 And I did not know him, but in order that he should be manifested to Israel. I came immersing in water because of this. 32 And John testified, saying, I have seen the Spirit coming down like a dove from heaven, and it remained upon him. 33 And I did not know him, but he who sent me to immerse in water, that one said to me, Upon whomever you see the Spirit coming down and remaining upon him, this one is he who immerses in the Holy Spirit. 34 And I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.

John 3:25-36

25 Therefore there happened to be a debate from John’s disciples with a Jew concerning the cleansing. 26 And they came to John and said to him, Rabbi, he who was with you beyond-that area of the Jordan, to whom you have testified, behold, this one immerses and all men are going to him.
27 John answered and said, A man is able to receive nothing, if it is not given to him from heaven. 28 You yourselves testify, that I said, I am not the Christ, but, that I have been sent before that one. 29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom, who is standing and hearing him, rejoices with joy because of the bridegroom’s voice. Therefore in this, my joy has been fulfilled. 30 It is essential for that to grow, but for me to be diminished.
31 He who is coming from above is over all. He who is from the earth is from the earth and speaks from the earth. He who is coming from heaven is over all. 32 And what he has seen and heard, he is testifying of this, and no one receives his testimony. 33 He who has received his testimony has sealed this : that God is true. 34 For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God does not give the Spirit from measure. 35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand. 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life, but he who is disobedient to the Son will not be seeing life, but the wrath of God is remaining upon him.
