Jesus started His ministry
Verses：John 1:35 ~ 1:51
Key Verse：51. And He said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, You shall see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.
Topic：Jesus started His ministry
Emphasis：in the verse 51 “the angels of God ascending and descending on the son of Man” is a very special way of speaking. In Genesis 28:12 we read of Jacob’s dream of a ladder and “the angels of God ascending and descending”. Therefore Jesus is the reality of that ladder, through Him, Jesus connected the heaven and earth, brings man to God, and brings heaven down to human beings. This was His ministry.
Meditate：Chapter 1 verse 29 and 36, both mentioned Jesus is the Lamb of God, and verse 51 implies Jesus is the “ladder”, please compare the differences between the two.
Prayer：Lord, I praise You, for Your work is to bring heaven to earth. By the accomplishment of Your ministry and through Your work, God and man can fellowship again.
