Who are you John?
John Chapter 1
|
1:19 |
And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? |
|
|
|
1:20 |
And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. |
|
|
|
1:21 |
And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No. |
|
|
|
1:22 |
Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself? |
|
|
|
1:23 |
He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias. |
|
|
|
1:24 |
And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. |
|
|
|
1:25 |
And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? |
|
|
|
1:26 |
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; |
|
|
|
1:27 |
He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. |
|
|
|
1:28 |
These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. |
