Mark 1:1-8 - Humility, Baptism, and Proper Focus (John the Baptist's Example)
Uploaded on 11/20/2011
Video 1 of our new teaching series on the Gospel of Mark. Some main points to take:
- Be as John the Baptist -- be humble and point to Jesus
- If you believe in Jesus and haven't been baptized, get baptized! It's a great step of obedience in following Jesus and is emblematic (an outward showing) of our salvation.
- Look to Jesus, the Son of God and focus of the Gospel. He is our hope.
NOTE: As stated, the work of Baptism is not the means to enter Heaven, but there is no reason for a Christian not to want to be baptized. That's like saying, 'I'm all about _______ (Insert Favorite Sports Team Name), but I'm not willing to cheer for them.'
