John 1:33
33 And I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘The One upon whom you see the Spirit descending and abiding on Him, athis is the One who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
John 3:27-36
27 John answered and said, “aA man can receive nothing unless it bhas been given him from heaven. 28 You yourselves are my witnesses that I said, ‘aI am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent ahead of Him.’ 29 He who has the bride is athe bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. So this bjoy of mine has been made full. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
31 “aHe who comes from above is above all, bhe who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. aHe who comes from heaven is above all. 32 What He has seen and heard, of that He abears witness; and ano one receives His witness. 33 He who has received His witness ahas set his seal to this, that God is true. 34 For He whom God has asent speaks the words of God; bfor He gives the Spirit without measure. 35 aThe Father loves the Son and bhas given all things into His hand. 36 He who abelieves in the Son has eternal life; but he who bdoes not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”
