    The nobility of John the Baptist submission to God’s plan for his life is contrasted with Lucifer’s ambitions for prominence. The value of a healthy appreciation for the sovereignty of God is considered.

    A Glorious Decline Fortifying the Foundations # 8 John 3:22-36 Intro: When we say the word “down”, what kind of thoughts go through your mind?—down and out, down under, down hearted, a downer.

    John said, "He must increase, I must decrease." If the church would discover that lesson and live by it, there’s no limit to where God can take his church.

    As ministers together in the gospel of Christ, if we fall into arguing amongst ourselves, we have lost focus and we are fighting the wrong enemy. We are all on the same team. Sometimes small things need to be let go in favor of confronting larger issues.

    As we have followed the new disciples of Jesus, we have seen a number of important lessons taught and demonstrated. These early lessons are from the book of John: • Jesus changes your perspective • Jesus gains your faith as a friend • Jesus spends time with family • Jesus introduces us to ...read more
