John the Baptist view of Christ,

In John 1:26-27, we see John the Baptist's picture of who Jesus Christ is.  John saw Jesus as a particular person with a particular purpose.  John saw Jesus as more powerful than himself.  He knew he was not worthy to unite Jesus' shoes.  He knew that Jesus would soon baptise His followers with the Holy Spirit and fire.  Jesus was ready to gather His wheat into His barn and the chaff would be blow away.  Jesus is the one who is the Christ and John was going to have the privilege of baptising Him, yet John knew He was unworthy.  Today as a disciple of Christ you need to have a clear understanding of who Jesus is and your role in the Kingdom.  If you are not familiar with your role, ask the Lord and He will show you His will and plan for you life.  Your promises today are:  John 15:7-8, Ps 110:3, Matt 12:50, John 17:17, Rom 8:27, 12:1-2, Phil 2:13 and Heb 10:36.  Your Insightful Sayings are:  Today many people think being holy is something you find in cheese.  Love is one quality we want given to us but we struggle to give to others
