Many come to faith in Christ by receiving testimony about Him. But how do we know the witnesses who offer that testimony are reliable? Responding to the charge that Jesus is not who He or His disciples say He is, Alistair Begg describes how John defended the testimony given about Christ in His baptism, crucifixion, and Spirit. God’s Word assures us that if we hear and believe, the Lord stirs up the testimony of Christ in our hearts so that we might also share it.
6This is he who came uby water and blood—Jesus Christ; not by the water only but by the water and the blood. And vthe Spirit is the one who testifies, because wthe Spirit is the truth. 7For there are three that testify: 8the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree. 9xIf we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God ythat he has borne concerning his Son. 10Whoever believes in the Son of God zhas the testimony in himself. Whoever does not believe God ahas made him a liar, bbecause he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son. 11And this is the testimony, that God gave us ceternal life, and dthis life is in his Son. 12eWhoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
