&lt;p&gt;22&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized.&lt;br&gt;
23&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized.&lt;br&gt;
24&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;For John had not yet been thrown into prison.&lt;br&gt;
25&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Then there arose a dispute between some of John&#039;s disciples and the Jews about purification.&lt;br&gt;
26&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;And they came to John and said to him, &quot;Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified--behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!&quot;&lt;br&gt;
27&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;John answered and said, &quot;A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven.&lt;br&gt;
28&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, &quot;I am not the Christ,&#039; but, &quot;I have been sent before Him.&#039;&lt;br&gt;
29&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom&#039;s voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled.&lt;br&gt;
30&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;He must increase, but I must decrease.&lt;br&gt;
31&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth is earthly and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.&lt;br&gt;
32&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;And what He has seen and heard, that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.&lt;br&gt;
33&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;He who has received His testimony has certified that God is true.&lt;br&gt;
34&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.&lt;br&gt;
35&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand.&lt;br&gt;
36&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.&quot;&lt;br&gt;
Glory be to God forever.&lt;/p&gt;" xmlUrl="&lt;a href=&quot;https://youtu.be/JjoWSk5fFRY&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/sites/default/files/video_thumbnails/JjoWSk5fFRY.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;img-responsive&quot; /&gt;
