Come, see, tell, repeat
John 1.29-42John the Baptist identifies Jesus as ‘the Lamb of God’, and the one who ‘baptizes with the Holy Spirit’. Later, two people try to find out more about Jesus, and he invites them to ‘Come and see’. These first two disciples believe they have found the Messiah, and bring others to Jesus.
The Gospel passage is one of witness. John has seen something of what his cousin is to become and is quick to impart the information to his disciples. Andrew and his friend are intrigued, so Jesus invites them to spend the day with him. Andrew is so impressed that he brings his brother Peter to meet Jesus too. There is a clear message here – we are not to keep what we discover about Jesus to ourselves.
This week we explore being invited to meet Jesus.
