We have found him.
John 1:43-45, The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, “Follow me.” Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 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.”
These first believers are marked by the desire to tell others of what they have found. Jesus called Philip and he found Nathanael. The message was simple, that he had found the one who is the focus of all scripture. We who have received him have the same opportunity, to tell others that we have found the one who is the fulfillment of all the promises given to us in the scriptures. He is the one sent to restore all that was lost!
We are humbled that you would call us and empower us to tell other about you!
