Book Two of the Harmony of the Gospels

This book I call - of all things - "Beginnings."  It starts with John's Ministry and explains his message that he had for the people of Israel.  It also shows his view of Christ and of his courage.

Form there the book moves onto the Baptism of Jesus, His temptation, His first disciples, and His first Miracle. 

We also see His first cleansing of the Temple, His teaching to Nicodemus about the Second Birth, and the start of His Ministries.
