CHAPTER 1

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “LOOK, THE LAMB OF GOD, WHO TAKES AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD! This is the one I meant when I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because he was before me.’ I myself did not know him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that he might be revealed to Israel.”

Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him. I would not have known him, except that the one who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and remain is he who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’ I have seen and I testify that THIS IS THE SON OF GOD.”

Two worthy choices, Claire.

To coin a phrase, “Beauty is as beauty does.”

Thank you again for these!

For some reason, I particularly like 22, 28 and 31, but they’re all beautiful.

Agnus Dei.

For some reason, I particularly like...

"There is no accounting for taste."

There are some artists who appear regularly in these threads whom I especially like. So, I am collecting my favorites from them and plan to post them as compendia when I finish with Revelation--Lord willing.

Coming in late Dan, especially love the glass!

I’m joyful to see ‘new’ posters here; and like you said, many visit but leave no comments. We know that God can touch any heart, thru any medium. He has No Limitations; look how He touched us!

Thank you Dan !!
