Christ's Witnesses
John 5:31-40
If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.…


God alone can testify touching the nature of a Divine relation. Christ has the witness of —

I. THE BAPTIST. His predicted forerunner.

II. HIS MIRACLES.

III. THE FATHER.

1. At His baptism (Matthew 3:17).

2. At His transfiguration (Luke 9:35).

3. In the temple (John 12:29).

IV. THE HOLY SCRIPTURES.

1. Old Testament.

2. New.

V. HIS DISCIPLES in whom He dwells.

VI. HIS ENEMIES, the rancour and persistence of whose opposition is a testimony to His Person and worth.

(J. W. Burn.)
