Bible Question:
John 1:29-34 As I read this portion of scripture, I am confused with John's statement of first stating that he saw Jesus coming and declaring that He is the Lamb of God, but then in v.31 John says he didn't reconize him. How then did John know it was Jesus who is the Son of God, but then didn't reconize Him. What does he mean by that? |
Bible Answer: sept14child Now read verses 32,33,34 they explain what John was saying. He knew the Messiah was coming but not who it was until God told him the one the Holy Spirit descends is the Son of God. He then saw the Holy Spirit as dove decending upon Jesus so he proclaimed Jesus at the Lamb of God EdB |
