Thematic Bible: Borne to Christ


Thematic Bible




Then John gave this testimony: "I saw the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove, and it remained on Him. I did not know Him myself, but the very One who sent me to baptize in water said to me, 'The One on whom you see the Spirit coming down and remaining, is the One who is to baptize in the Holy Spirit.'


And this testimony is that God has given us eternal life, and this life is given through union with His Son. Verse ConceptsLife, EverlastingLife Is In ChristEternal lifeeternitytestimony

For by that one sacrifice He has made perfect for all time those who are consecrated to Him. Now the Holy Spirit, too, gives us the testimony, for after saying:

God has exalted to His right hand this very One as our Leader and Saviour, in order to give repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel. We and the Holy Spirit that God has given to those who practice obedience to Him are witnesses to these things."

He is the One who came through water and blood -- Jesus Christ; not through water only but through water and blood. The Spirit also testifies to this, because the Spirit is truth.
