Two men


After John 1:1-14
 

Two men are sent.

The first is a witness.

The second is the light.

The first announces 

the light is coming.

The second is

the light arrived.

The first is of flesh.

The second is

made flesh.

The first baptizes.

The second is

the baptism.

The first is the herald.

The second is the news.

The first testifies.

The second is

the testimony.
