:04:03
Out of the fullness of his grace,
he has blessed us all...
:04:07
giving us one blessing after another.
:04:11
God gave the Law through Moses...
:04:14
but grace and truth...
:04:16
came through Jesus Christ.
:04:22
No one has ever seen God.
:04:24
The only Son, who is the same as God...
:04:28
and is at the Father's side...
:04:30
he has made him known.
:04:35
The Jewish authorities in Jerusalem
sent some priests and Levites to John.
:04:40
Who are you?
:04:42
John did not refuse to answer,
but spoke out openly and clearly.
:04:49
-l am not the Messiah.
-Who are you then?
:04:52
-Are you Elijah?
-No, I'm not.
:04:54
-Are you the Prophet?
-No.
:04:56
Then tell us who you are.
:04:58
We have to take an answer back
to those who sent us.
:05:00
What do you say about yourself?
:05:04
John answered
by quoting the prophet, Isaiah.
:05:06
"I am the voice of someone
shouting in the desert:
:05:11
"'Make a straight path
for the Lord to travel!"'
:05:23
The messengers, who had been sent
by the Pharisees, then asked John:
:05:28
If you are not the Messiah,
nor Elijah, nor the Prophet...
:05:31
why do you baptize?
:05:38
I baptize with water.
:05:42
But among you
stands the one you do not know.
:05:45
He is coming after me.
:05:48
But I am not good enough...
:05:51
even to untie his sandals.
