Men Of The Bible - John The Baptist Series

Contributed by John Murphy on Oct 25, 2012

We would not think a man like Herod came close to the Kingdom but his closeness to John the Baptist changed all of that

Two months ago we actually looked at two men from the bible. Nehemiah and Ezra. One rebuilt Gods city the other rebuilt Gods people with his statutes. This time I would like to look at two men so different and yet so connected in the bible. The year was 1948 and a young and strange man set up ...read more

John The Baptist: Dramatic Monolog

Contributed by Dean O'bryan on Jul 12, 2006

This is a monolog I wrote for a student at a Christian High School, then later I performed it myself. It incorporates John’s message, first of repentance, then of pointing people to Jesus as the Messiah.

Introduction (I had someone read this before I came to the platform) It was a dark and discouraging time in Israel. A time of cultural and political unrest. But for men and women who knew God and were sensitive to Him, it was a time for prayer and seeking, a time of hope that He was about to do ...read more

The Yuletide Cheer Of John The Baptist Series

Contributed by David Smith on Jan 12, 2010

[John] said therefore to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear fruits in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ’We have Abraham as our father.’ F

Last week we welcomed back to the Christmas stage that most unlikely of Yuletide figures - the gaunt and rather unjolly figure of John the Baptist. He emerges from the background shadows of the Nativity scene each year at this time, and last week I focused on just what an unexpected and unwanted ...read more

Let It Be Done Unto Me According To Your Word

Contributed by Bishop Prof. Julius Soyinka on Oct 8, 2024

The life of Mary is a very challenging one and an epitome of unconditional submission to the Word of God and His perfect Will.

Let it be Done unto Me According to your Words Study Text: Luke 1: 26 - 38 Introduction: Mary is a good example to understand the meaning of surrendering to God’s will. We often sing the song “I surrender all”. But in truth, how much of that ‘all’ part do we surrender to God. Do we have ...read more

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Jun 4, 2019

I just can't believe it! Ever said that? That was a common response by those to whom Jesus appeared after his resurrection and it's still a rather common response by many today. Don't be surprised! Be ready!
