John 1:35-45

35Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,

36and he looked at Jesus as He walked along, and said, “Look! The Lamb of God!”

37The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.

38And Jesus turned and saw them following Him, and asked them, “What do you want?” They answered Him, “Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?”

39He said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they went [with Him] and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

40One of the two who heard what John said and [as a result] followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

41He first looked for and found his own brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which translated means the Christ).

42Andrew brought Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of John. You shall be called Cephas (which is translated Peter).”

43The next day Jesus decided to go into Galilee, and He found Philip and said to him, “Follow Me [as My disciple, accepting Me as your Master and Teacher, and walking the same path of life that I walk].”

44Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote about—Jesus from Nazareth, the son of Joseph [according to public record].”
