• 4. An apostle of Christ - Andrew exhibited virtues as outline in the Biblical passage "Love envieth not" 1 Cor 13:4
  • The seeking Greeks - the Greeks were true seekers of God. They desired to see Jesus, not only with the eye of the body, but the eye of the spirit. Andrew introduced them to Jesus.
