John 1:43-51 NKJV

 
John 1:43-51 The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip and said to him, "Follow Me."


Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.


Philip found Nathaniel and said to him, "We have found  Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote--Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."


And Nathaniel said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."


Jesus saw Nathaniel coming toward Him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!"


Nathaniel said to Him, "How do You know me?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called  you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."


Nathaniel answered and said to Him, "Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"


Jesus answered and said to him, "Because I said to you, ' I saw you under the fig tree.' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."


And He said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."
 
Zechariah 6:9-15 Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying;


"Receive the gift from the captives--from Heidai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have come from Babylon--and go the same day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah.


"Take the silver and gold, make an elaborate crown, and set it on the head of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest.


"Then speak to him, saying, 'Thus says the Lord of hosts, saying; "Behold, the Man whose name is the BRANCH! From His place He shall branch out, And He shall build the temple of the Lord;


Yes, He shall build the temple of the Lord. He shall bear the glory, And shall sit and rule on His throne; So He shall be a priest of His throne, And the counsel of peace shall be between them both."'


"Now the elaborate crown shall be for a memorial in the temple of the Lord for Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen the son of Zephaniah.


"Even those from afar shall come and build the temple of the Lord. Then you shall know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. And this shall come to the voice of the Lord your God."


Zechariah 3:6-10 Then the Angle of the Lord admonished Joshua, saying,


"Thus says the Lord of hosts; "If you will walk in My ways, And if you will keep My command, Then you shall also judge My house, And likewise have charge of My courts; I will give you places to walk Among these who stand here.


'Hear, O Joshua, the high priest, You and your companions who sit before you, For they are a wondrous sign; For behold, I am bringing forth My Servant the BRANCH.


For behold, the stone That I have laid before Joshua; Upon the stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave its instruction.' says the Lord of hosts,'And I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.


In that day, says the Lord of hosts, 'Everyone will invite his neighbor Under his vine and under his fig tree.'"


Ephesians 2:19-22 Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,


having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone,


in whom the whole building, being fit together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,


in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.
