"Come and see" (
John 1:39
39
He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour. (John 1:39)
). "Follow Thou Me" (
John 21:22
22
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me. (John 21:22)
).
It is not a little remarkable that the first and last utterances of the Lord in the Gospel of John consist of three words each. The first recorded word that falls from His lips in this Gospel is the most welcome of all words as sounding from Him—"Come." Welcome and winning word indeed! But the lips that say "Come," also say "Follow." To be a truehearted subject of grace is also to become a truehearted follower. The "come" of grace is balanced by the "follow" of authority. "Come and see" and "Follow thou Me" form the perfect balance.
