Christ Must Increase

To see people follow the ministry of the Lod was the measure of John’s success. That was his role.
This is the background of the text John 3:30.
John was a temporary minister until Christ should take up the work.

This text becomes a vital principle for all ministers and all of God’s servants.
Your work is to promote and exalt the Lord. You are to so promote the Lord that you forget self.
This is the law of inverse proportions.
