    John’s Ministry Begins Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 21, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 15,193 views

    John the Baptist steps out on the stage of history. He is a New Testament personality, but I classify him as an Old Testament prophet, because of his character and his message.

    -AD 7-8- Judean Wilderness John’s Ministry Begins (Malachi 3:1) Matthew 3:1, Mark 1:1-4, Luke 3:1-2, John 1:19-28 God planned the ministry of John the Baptist. We know this because we find him in prophecy. Malachi 3:1 says of him, “See, I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before ...read more

    Confessing sin is more than just speaking words; it may involve a broken heart. The mature Christian and those living close to God, recognize that their sin is degrading and offensive to a Holy God. Deep sorrow will flow from the heart when sin is confe

    -AD 25-27- Judean Wilderness The Man and His Message (Isaiah 40:3) Matthew 3:2-12, Mark 1:2-8, Luke 3:3-14 All four Gospels quote Isaiah 40:3, and they assign it to John the Baptist, therefore I will accept their testimony.

    His Picture Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 23, 2017
     | 7,024 views

    I wonder how well John and Jesus knew each other. If they had never met, I assume that Jesus at least knew of His cousin and vise versa.

    -AD 25-27- Judean Wilderness His Picture of Jesus (Acts 2:38) Matthew 3:11-12, Mark 1:7-8, Luke 3:15-18, John 1:26-27 John was Jesus’ cousin. The Bible doesn’t say if they had a relationship, prior to John baptizing Him in the Jordan River. We do know that His mother, Mary, visited his mother ...read more

    Water baptism does not save you, but every believer should be baptized, because Jesus, Himself, commanded it. He said, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

    Jesus said "If I do not go away, the Helper will not come." Why not? This part examines that question as well as our dependence on the Holy Spirit, and his function as our guarantee, grieving the Holy Spirit, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

     | 5,054 views

    The Holy Spirit does the hands-on work in the Bible: creating, inspiring, empowering, communicating the Word. Jesus left Him to direct the church. Are we ignoring Him or are we seeking Him and cooperating with Him?
