John 1:22-25

Living Bible

²² “Then who are you? Tell us, so we can give an answer to those who sent us. What do you have to say for yourself?”

²³ He replied, “I am a voice from the barren wilderness, shouting as Isaiah prophesied, ‘Get ready for the coming of the Lord!’”

^24-25 Then those who were sent by the Pharisees asked him, “If you aren’t the Messiah or Elijah or the Prophet, what right do you have to baptize?”
