    the witness of John the Baptist is a dynamic example for every servant of God. 1. John was questioned by religionists who were suspicious of Him: they asked, “Who are you?” (v.19). 2. He was a man who knew who he was (vv.20–22). 3. He was only a voice—only a forerunner for the Lord (v.23–24).

     | 1,571 views

    Focusing in on Mark chapter one verses 1-20, and we’ll be reflecting on three key events in this first portion of Mark. We’ll be looking at the ministry of John the Baptist as he prepared for the coming of Jesus, then the baptism of Jesus, and Jesus’ calling his first disciples.

    Last night I was listening to some beautiful music. And I was just thinking, this music is a gift from God. It really is. Who is this creator who made everything? How are we to understand who he is? Of course, we know we understand from his word, but I was thinking, and I wondered: What can we ...read more

    Jesus revealed to John the Baptist. Two of John's disciples follow Jesus.

    JOHN THE BAPTIST FADES INTO THE BACKGROUND. John 1:29-42. 1. The Lamb of God (John 1:29-34).

    When we are baptized with the water we are also baptized with the Holy Spirit and, as a result, receive a full measure of the same grace and love Jesus received when He showed us the way with His baptism.

    Watergrave Do any of you remember your baptism? I remember mine. You see, I can remember mine because I was 17 at the time. I was baptized and brought into membership in a Baptist church. Now, it wasn’t because I was a Baptist that I was older when I had this experience of ...read more

    The ’vaccine’ of faith that we received in our Baptism fights the ’virus’ of the world, the devil and our flesh.

    Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: I wonder how Dr. Jonas Salk felt in the 1950’s.

    On this “Baptism of Jesus” Sunday we might very well ask what John asked. Why did Jesus need to be baptized? Like John it is also good for us to see our need for baptism by Jesus.

    John the Baptist. That name brings powerful images to mind. Camel’s hair clothes held together with a leather belt. Grasshoppers dipped in wild honey for a sweet and crunchy meal.

    Being sealed by God's Holy Spirit does not make us exempt from temptation. We can only win over and against temptation by putting our faith in Jesus Christ who can help us to resist temptation.

    BAPTISM AND THE BATTLEGROUND Text: Mark 1:9-15 Mark 1:9-15  "In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.  (10)  And just as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit descending like a dove on ...read more

    Jesus stumps the religious leaders who try to trap Him with questions about His authority. We need a Christ with authority from heaven, not earth. As Christians we battle against our flesh, which wants to follow the rules of the world were it is king instead of Christ.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14) “Check and Checkmate” You ever play chess?

    Jesus submits to the Father in baptism, although as John pointed out, he had no need to be baptized (he was without sin). However, Jesus is righteous by doing what is "right" and sets the example and standard for us.

    It is interesting how we can allow what we have always been taught by others to affect how we look at what the Bible teaches. The subject of baptism is one such subject in which what many have always been taught leads them to suppress the truth.

    I have had many discussions about the subject of baptism with people, and it never fails that sometime during the discussion, they just deny what the scriptures say about the topic. They at times just say, “I deny what you are saying about about baptism,” ignoring the fact that all I am ...read more
