In John 1 we read how Philip went to his friend Nathanael he told him about Jesus ,he said to him,'We have found the one Moses wrote about in the law,and about whom the prophets also wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph'. Nathanael replied ,'Nazareth! can anything good come from there?' Come and see', said Philip. Nazareth had a bad reputation,we all know of such places,we would not to live in such places. In spite of Nathanael's reluctance he went to see,and Jesus first words were.'Now here is a genuine son of Israel, a man of integrity'. He had never met Jesus,yet Jesus knew him,just like the woman at the well John 4,Jesus told Him he knew Him before he ever met him 1 v48, What Jesus said convinced Nathanael. from that moment on, everything changed for Nathanael, like a blind man who had walked in the darkness ,now he could see,yes all things were changed.
'Come and see'
