John the Baptist came out of the wilderness with God dripping off of Him preaching saying, “Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.”
· **God had a path for Jesus Christ to walk on and to walk in! God has a path for you to walk on and to walk in as well! Proverbs 3:5-6 5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy ...read more

Here in these verses the birth of JOHN THE BAPTIST was foretold by an angel to his father Zechariah. JOHN THE BAPTIST'S important CALLING was to turn the children of Israel to the Lord their God.

Scripture: Luke 1:1-80
What's with the strange story about the young man fleeing naked at Jesus' arrest? Mark leaves out so many big aspects of that event, but he includes this. Is it a meaningless, throwaway story? Or is it Mark at his best, crafting a profound message in a vivid picture?
Jesus leads the 12 into battle even though he knows they will fail. When the hour comes, you’ll have to face the battle, ready or not. Jesus fights this battle on four fronts. Front #1: Judas (Jesus fights dis-couragement by calling out to Abba, Father). Front #2: the rogue disciple who jeopardizes ...read more

1 John is called one of the “General Epistles,” because it was not sent to a specific church. Rather, it was sent to churches in general.
The three books of John are referred to as “letters, however, the first was not written in the form of a letter. For example, it has no salutation nor conclusion. In fact, it has all the characteristics of a sermon in which a pastor is revealing his love for God’s people. To have a good ...read more

Denomination: Baptist
In the first sermon it was mentioned that in order to understand the books of 1, 2, and 3 John, we first needed to understand some things about the place John wrote from, Ephesus.
Because this is essential, I would like to refresh your memory before we get into the heart of this sermon. We dealt with these FOUR things about the Ephesian Christians: (1) THEIR HERITAGE. They were second and third generation Christians. Their parents and grandparents had been in the ...read more
Scripture: 1 John 1:7-8
In 1 John, chapter one, John had the audacity to tell some of those who claimed to be saved that they were liars.
Evidently John never took a course in “HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE”. If he had taken it, he would have had a hard time passing the course. We know this because we see he called those people liars five times. He used “liar(s)” in: • 1 John 1:10. • 1 John 2:4. • 1 John 2:22. • 1 John ...read more
Scripture: 1 John 2:3-11
In a previous sermon we dealt with what John had to say about how we can KNOW that WE KNOW THE LORD.
We discovered that anyone can say that they know the Lord...anyone! All one has to say is, “I know the Lord.” John used the word, “saith,” numerous times. He referred to it in: • 1 John 2:4. He said, “HE THAT SAITH, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not ...read more

Imagine with me…, that you are in the crowd of people gathered at the edge of the Jordan River witnessing John the Baptist and others as they wade out into the water to be baptized.
“Breaking Through Baptism” And so John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River. 6 ...read more
Scripture: Mark 4:4-11
The best thing we can do during difficulties and trials is to bring all our griefs, troubles, and discouragements to Jesus. This is what John the Baptist did when he was in prison, and it helped him move from doubting to faith.
All me to begin with an illustration: “Joe Scriven was a missionary from Ireland to Canada, working among the Iroquois Indians. He was joined by his fiancé, who was also from Ireland. Just before the wedding, she was killed in an accident. Joe buried her with his own hands and a broken ...read more
