"Here is a true Israelite there is no duplicity in him"
John 1 : 47
First of all Philip witnesses before Nathanael to Jesus as the Messiah. On seeing him draw near Jesus, who can see things happening in the future discloses who Nathanael is. He says, “Here is a true Israelite, there is no duplicity in him.” We have Nathanael’s positive response and Jesus’ promise of a vision of greater things. The revelation of the Son of man as the new steps to Heaven. Vision has a profound connection with witnessing and faith. To see is to witness to worthy things and prepare the way for faith for worthy persons. To witness is to tell others that what is seen is worth believing, living for and even dying for.
Prayer
Lord we pray for the pwoer of your spirit in our lives, that we may live in thankfulness, and be people of vision and courage who have compassion for one another. Amen.
