The Example of John the Baptist

“He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light” (John 1:8).

“He must become greater; I must become less” (John 3:30).

Here are two statements, one about John the Baptist, and the other by him. In a culture where it is a temptation to become greater, we must follow John’s example. We are witnesses to the light “so that through Him all men might believe.”
