John

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.

And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.

He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
