In this passage, John provides a pattern for outreach and evangelism, modeled through the lives of John the Baptist, Jesus, and Jesus' followers.
First, John the Baptist witnesses to Jesus. Then, those he witnessed to begin to follow Jesus. Upon being questioned by them, Jesus invites them to "come and see." They do, and then they go out and invite others to also "come and see."
When we witness to others about Jesus--whether in word or deed--we are offering an invitation to "come and see" him.
