    The Divine Visitation

    Contributed by Paul Kallan on Dec 5, 2002
    based on 37 ratings
     | 13,817 views

    It is better to be cleansed from the roots of evil than to be lead from the different forms of prisons that they build around us.

    On the second Sunday of Advent, Mark 1.1-8 calls our attention to the person of John the Baptist. John is a figure of confrontation. This confrontation is interior in nature. It has to do with our inner self. It is the greatest challenge of cleansing ourselves innerly. Tom was a quite boy. His ...read more

    This is a time of the year for cliches and spiritual sappy-talk. John the Baptist offers a fresh perspective.

    Mark 1:1-8 WHAT WOULD JOHN THE BAPTIST SAY TO YOU? Sometimes, when you hear the same thing all the time, it starts to become less and less meaningful. For example, right now, at this time in the year, the newspaper, the TV, and the radio are all saying the same thing: “There is a special sale ...read more

    In John the Baptist we have an example of humble living, speaking truth, and always pointing beyond ourselves to Christ.

    “POINTING BEYOND OURSELVES” Mark 1:1-8 Isaiah 40:1-11 By: Rev. Kenneth E. Sauer, Pastor of Parkview United Methodist Church, Newport News, VA Approximately three-hundred years before John the Baptist came on the scene... ...God had promised through the prophet Isaiah that a person would come and ...read more

    December 8, 2002 Mark 1:1-8 The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

    A Good Place To Start

     | 14,535 views

    Second Sunday in Advent: The evangelist Mark starts with John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness. He seems to leave out Christmas. But perhaps, for us, it is a ’good place to start.’

    The Gospel Lesson today is one of the most interesting Advent / Christmas lessons in all of scripture. I say that because - did you notice that something seems to be missing? There is no mention of Christmas in this Gospel. Mark mentions neither the miraculous conception nor the birth of Jesus. And ...read more

    The second week of advent looks towards John the Baptist as the Messenger of Christ’s coming peace.

    Cresson Baptist Church Sunday, December 8, 2002 Scripture: Mark 1:1-8 Messenger of Peace Introduction: Advent is the season of preparation for the coming of Christ. We remember when Christ was born in this time of the year. It is more symbolic than literal. When I was considering these 4 ...read more

    What it is to Prepare for the Incarnation and return of Christ

    Last week, we took a look at that which we are preparing for. I mentioned the obvious – that we look back as we prepare once again to celebrate the birth of the messiah, of Emmanuel, God with us – come to save us from our sin and death. We look all around and we see the world preparing to ...read more

    There’s nothing wrong with being #2 as long Jesus is #1.

    So, What’s Wrong With Avis? To say John the Baptist was unique would be an understatement. He had taken a Nazirite vow. Now a Nazirite vow contained 3 main conditions: refrain from wine and other intoxicants, not allow a razor to touch one’s hair, and not go near a dead body -–not ...read more

    “And no doubt you know that God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. Then Jesus went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the Devil, for God was with Him” Acts 10:38.

    Theme: The anointed One brings healing and peace Text: Is. 42:1-9; Acts 10:34-38; Mark 1:4-11 Good News can only be appreciated in times of difficulties and troubles.

    “I am baptised with the water of repentance; but am I still baptised in the Spirit of God?”

    At the beginning of the World War II, Israel Eugenio was the chief Rabbi of Rome. The Nazis occupied Rome in September 1943. The Nazi officer Kappler demanded 50 kg of gold in place of the Jews. The Jews feverishly managed to collect 35 kg. The chief Rabbi Zolli realized his helplessness. For the ...read more

    Epiphany 1 - the Baptism of Our Lord: God is truly praised when He empowers the life of the believer through the forgiveness that Christ won.

    Praise is important. Praise generally makes us feel appreciated and it gives us a sense that people care about us. Today we had the privilege of praising our brother Robert for the time, effort, hard work and investment of his heart for the sake of the congregation. And it was good. Praise ...read more

    "I Am Baptised"

    To make the affirmation "I am Baptised" is to bring the reality of our baptism into the present making us vitally aware that we are Children of God, disciples of Christ and members of the Church.

    Sermon for the Baptism of Our Lord I am Baptised! Apparently Martin Luther, the great 16th figure of the reformation used to take great comfort from these words. When it seemed to him that the whole church had left the precepts of the Gospel, when he was under scrutiny from Church officials as to ...read more
