  2. “The Word, The Light, The Glory & The Lamb” John 20:30-31 (NKJV) 30 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

  3. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Andrew & Another Disciple • Testimony of John the baptizer • Testified of Jesus as being the Light of the world - Jn 1:6-8 • The Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world - Jn1:29 • The Son of God who baptizes with the Holy Spirit - Jn 1:32-34 John 1:35-36 (NKJV) 35 Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples. 36 And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God!"

  4. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Andrew & Another Disciple • Testimony of John the baptizer • Emphasized that Jesus was greater - 1:15,27,30 • John pointed two of his disciples to Jesus as “the Lamb of God” - Jn 1:35-36; 1:29; 1 Pet 1:19,20 John 1:35-36 (NKJV) 35 Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples. 36 And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God!"

  5. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Andrew & Another Disciple • Because of John's testimony, two followed Jesus - Jn 1:37, 40 • Jesus’ question “What do you seek?” - 1:38 • Their reply “Rabbi, Where are you staying” - 1:39 • Jesus responds - “Come & See” which they did - 1:39 John 1:37 (NKJV) 37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

  6. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Andrew & Another Disciple • Andrew • From Bethsaida of Galilee - cf. Jn 1:44 • Brother of Simon Peter, sons of Jonah - cf. Jn 1:42 • A fisherman - cf. Mt 4:18 • Among those who questioned Jesus about the destruction of Jerusalem - Mk 13:1-4 • Named an apostle - Mt 4:18-20 John 1:40 (NKJV) 40 One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

  7. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Andrew & Another Disciple • Andrew • Andrew appears two more times in John (6:4-9; 12:20-22); both times he is bringing someone to Jesus. • The unnamed disciple is commonly held to be John • In Mark 1:16-20 two pairs of brothers (Simon and Andrew, James and John) who were fishermen called by Jesus. John 1:40 (NKJV) 40 One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

  8. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Andrew & Another Disciple • Andrew • Was convinced that Jesus was the promised Messiah • Had to tell others - (Acts 4:20; 8:4; 1 Thes 1:6-8) • He was a man who had previous convictions - He was looking for the Messiah, believing God’s word - (Isa 61:1) John 1:41-42 (NKJV) 41 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which is translated, the Christ).

  9. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Simon Peter • A fisherman from Bethsaida of Galilee - cf. Mt 4:18; Jn 1:44 • Brother of Andrew, sons of Jonah - cf. Jn 1:42 • Jesus named him Cephas (Aramaic), Peter (Greek), meaning "a rock"Later, Jesus officially called him to be His disciple as he was fishing by the Sea of Galilee - Lk 5:1-11 John 1:41-42 (NKJV) 42 And he brought him to Jesus. Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, "You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas" (which is translated, A Stone).

  10. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Simon Peter • Then he was selected to be one of the twelve apostles - Lk 6:13-14 • His name mentioned first in the lists - Included among the "inner circle" - cf. Mt 17:1-2; 26:37 • Known for his denial of Christ, and restoration - cf. Jn 18:25; 21:15 • A key figure in the first half of the book of Acts John 1:41-42 (NKJV) 42 And he brought him to Jesus. Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, "You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas" (which is translated, A Stone).

  11. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Phillip • Greek name suggests Greek connections - cf. also Jn 12:20-22 • From Bethsaida of Galilee - Jn 1:44; 12:21 • Selected to be one of the twelve apostles - Lk 6:13-14 • Asked by Jesus about bread in feeding the 5,000 - Jn 6:5-7 • It was he who asked, "Lord, show us the Father" - Jn 14:8 John 1:43-44 (NKJV) 43 The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip and said to him, "Follow Me." 44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

  12. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Phillip • Philip’s discussion with Nathanael stressed that Jesus is the Promised One of whom Moses (Deut. 18:18-19; cf. John 1:21, 25) and the prophets (Isa. 52:13-53:12; Dan. 7:13; Micah 5:2; Zech. 9:9) wrote. • Called Jesus... the son of Joseph. But would soon recognize that He is “the Son of God” (John 1:49). John 1:45-46 (NKJV) 45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote--Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

  13. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Nathanael • Of Cana in Galilee - Jn 21:2Probably a fisherman also - cf. Jn 21:1-3 • Nathanael was at first skeptical, because Jesus was of Nazareth - Jn 1:46 • Jesus convinces Nathanael - Jn 1:47-51 John 1:45-46 (NKJV) 46 And Nathanael said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

  14. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Nathanael • Jesus, having supernatural knowledge (cf. v. 42), called Nathanael... a true Israelite, in whom there is nothing false (dolos, “deceitful”) unlike Jacob (cf. v. 51 with Gen. 28:12). John 1:47 (NKJV) 47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!"

  15. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Nathanael • Jesus said He knew exactly what Nathanael was doing before Philip came up to him; • This expression often meant to have safety and leisure (cf. 1 Kings 4:25; Mic 4:4; Zech. 3:10). • Psalm 139 elaborates on the theme of God’s knowledge of a person’s life in every detail. John 1:48 (NKJV) 48 Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know me?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

  16. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” Simon Peter, Phillip & Nathanael • Nathanael • Prompting Nathanael to proclaim - • "Rabbi, You are the Son of God!" - cf. Mt 14:33 • "You are the King of Israel!" - cf. Mt 21:5; 27:11 • Nathanael is convinced that this teacher (Rabbi) is the Messiah John 1:49 (NKJV) 49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"

  17. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” John 1:50-51 (NKJV) 50 Jesus answered and said to him, "Because I said to you, 'I saw you under the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these." 51 And He said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

  18. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” You will see greater things than these • Greater evidences of His Messiahship • E.g., heaven opening and angels of God ascending and descending upon Him • An allusion to Jacob's dream? - Gen 28:12 • An implication that Jesus was the way (ladder) to heaven? - cf. Jn 14:6

  19. “Come And See . . . That You May Believe” John 20:30-31 (NKJV) 30 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

  21. Mark 1:14-20 (NKJV) 14 Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel." 16 And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 17 Then Jesus said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men."

  22. Mark 1:14-20 (NKJV) 18 They immediately left their nets and followed Him. 19 When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets. 20 And immediately He called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after Him.
