S. Revenue Stamps_____________134,00 Through the testimony of John the Baptist, his disciples were pointed to J oshs . This same testimony he gave •the previous day, I. Two of John’s Disciple* Followed Jesus (vv, 35-37). As a result of the Baptist’s test!* mony, two of his disciples left him and followed Jesus, One o f these was Andrew (v. 40) and. presumably the other was John. When the Baptist pointed out Jesus as the Lamb o f God, the long-expected Messiah, these dis­ ciples sought further acquaintance with Jesus, m view o f John’s request,' they looked upon the Lord.. This look was sufficient to Induce them to fol­ low Jesus. When they looked they hetleved. The proof of their belief was their following- after Him. John speaks, the disciples hear and follow. The whole plan of salvation Is wrapped up In this simple testimony ■ and action, II. The Two Disciples Abiding With Jesu* (vv. 88, 89), • . 1. Jesus’ Question (v, 38). When Jesus, saw the disciples following Him,. He Inquired, “What seek ye?” 2. The Disciples' Reply (v. 89). They answer His question by. inquiring, as to His dwelling-place. Their reply ’showed, their desire to go apart pri­ vately where they could disclose their hearts to Him. Knowing their hearts, He Invited them to His place of abode; therefore, for the remainder of. that day, they held sweet Intercourse with the Master. III. The Disciples Bringing Others to Jesus (vv. 40-48), The very genius of Christianity is self-propagation. The usual method is to begin with those nearest us, home folk and relatives and pass out to ever-widening circles. The disciples who were with Jesus in blessed fel­ lowship, went at once to tell others of the priceless treasure they have found. •*■.■■■ ' 1. Andrea' Brings Peter (vv. 40-42). .This Is a beautiful example o f broth­ erly affection; expressing Itself in bringing another to Christ. How can a true brother who has found Christ do aughtbut-go and tell his brother? The best place to begin our testimony for Christie among our kinsfolk (Luke 8:30)- When Andrew had witnessed, to Peter, he brought him to Jesus where he could speak with Him per­ sonally. 2. Philip Bringing Nathanael ( tv . 43-40). . Christ found Philip the follow­ ing day ns He would go forth Into Galilee. Philip followed Hint in re­ sponse to a personal Invitation.' As soon as Christ found him, Philip found Nathanael and witnessed to hint con­ cerning the messluhshfp of Jesus, He said unto him: “ We have found Him, of whom Moses in the law, and the .prophets did write, Jesus of Naaa- reth” (v. 45). Christ Is the sum and Substance o f the Old Testament, Na­ thanael was somewhat skeptical, hut lie was honest, „Philip had the wisdom not to argue with him, but brought him to Jesus, It Is frequently unwise to rebuke the skeptlcul for their lack of faith. The better way Is to Invite them to put Christ to a test./ / IV. Nathanssl Dating and Hearing Jesus, Testifies of Hie Divinity (vV. 47-49). As soon as Nathanael heard and saw Jesue all his doubts rolled awny. Jesus proved that He was the omnipo­ tent One. We do not know what Na­ thanael was doing under the flg-tree. Perhaps he was-praying for heavenly light and guidance, but Jesus saw him. He was evidently sincere. He who Is willing to be led and to do shall surely come Into the light (John 7:17), He who acts upon the Ught given shall see greater things (w . 50 , 51), Angels ascending and descending upon the Son o f Man, with the open heavens, show that Jesus Christ Is the means of communication between enrth ■and heaved (Heb. 10:19, 20: Eph, 2:18; Gen. 28:12). This narrative concern­ ing the experiences of the first, dis­ ciples exhibits the following stages of Christian experience: 1. Hearing about Jesus (r, 30). 2. Looking upon JeSus (v, 80), 0. Following JestiS (v, 87). 4. Abiding with Jesus (v, 89), 5, Witnessing for Jesus (vv. 41-45). 0, Bringing others to Jesus.
