111 112 God the Son works as God, the rest as servants. The two witnesses to our Lord. 113 114 How to understand, He that cometh after me has become before me. 115 116 All that we have a gift from the Son's fulness. S. John the Baptist confessed his Lord's superiority. 117 118 God the Son's gifts contrasted with those given of old through Moses. 119 120 Christ's glory that of God, the saints' that of men. 122 The Unseen God how said to have been seen. God the Son in the Father and from the Father. 123 124 The Bosom of the Father, the Intimate Oneness with Him of God the Son. 125 126 S. John Baptist's testimony. Prophecies of Christ. 127 128 The Pharisees pretending to honour the coming, reject the come. 129
