Jesus and John the Baptist: Of Earthly and Ultimate Things

Bishop Gregory Brewer’s homily, April 16, 2015, at the Episcopal Diocese of Central Florida, Orlando.

John 3:31 —  He who comes from above is above all. He who is of the earth belongs to the earth andspeaks in an earthly way. He who comes from heaven is above all. 32 He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony. 33 Whoever receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true. 34 For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the Spirit without measure. 35 The Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand. 36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him
