—John 1:29-36
by: Dorothy Noel.
“Behold, the Lamb of God” (v.36). John the Baptist had an interesting story. He had spent a while living in the desert, then showed back up in society as a prophet. People paid attention to him—some because they believed his words, and others just because he looked like a crazy person. So, when he called out “Behold,” people turned and looked. He pointed them to Jesus, reminding them of their need for salvation that only He could provide. This reminds me of Philippians 1:18, where we are reminded that no matter the motives, we should always celebrate when Christ is proclaimed.
