Our Scripture reading today is John 1:15, "John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me."
John the Baptist knew that Jesus Christ existence did not start in the manger in Bethlehem. He believed Jesus was the Son of God and that He has always been in existence. John may have been "older" physically, but Jesus was "around" well before John was born to Elisabeth. What a great privilege it was for John to speak of Jesus Christ prior to His first coming. It is our privilege to speak of Christ prior to His second coming. Jesus is coming again and we must be using our voice to tell others.
Marvellous message we bring
Glorious carol we sing
Wonderful word of the King
Jesus is coming again!
