    We often don't give baptism the importance we should. We look at why baptism is important.

    5 Is Baptism important? Mark 1:1-13 Mark's gospel starts with John the Baptist baptising and then goes straight onto Jesus being baptised. So, it’s natural to talk about baptism! Baptism is a somewhat controversial subject as different churches and denominations hold different views on ...read more

    The real connectivity between Judaism and Christianity took place through the Gospel writers. He established his purpose for writing this Gospel. It’s not for telling some stories about Jesus Christ and the conflicts between Jesus and the Leaders of Judaism and Romans.

    Mark 1:2-3 Mark connects OT & NT Introduction: The real connectivity between Judaism and Christianity took place through the Gospel writers. As we understood last week that Mark was the earliest and the first Gospel accepted by the Canon of the Church. So, he established his purpose for ...read more

    An Extraordinary Man

     | 860 views

    We meet many ordinary people regularly, but extraordinary people do not appear as often. Leaders who are competent to lead and able to do what they say are rare. When one is recognized, normally good honest people flock to see them; meet them; seek to find out all they can about them.

    If you heard about or met an extraordinary man, would you be intrigued to hear more about him or desire to meet him? I’m certain many ladies have; you probably married him!

    Jesus travels to the Jordan River to inaugurate His ministry by being Baptized in the Jordan River. This is not what John the Baptist expects, as John's Baptism is a baptism of Repentance. Why was Jesus Baptized?
