What A Friend We Have In Jesus What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful? Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness, Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our Refuge - Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there.

Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised Thou wilt all our burdens bear May we ever, Lord, be bringing All to Thee in earnest prayer,

Soon glory bright, unclouded There will be no need for prayer Rapture, praise, and endless worship Will be our sweet portion there.

How great the pain of searing loss; The Father turns His face away, As wounds which mar the Chosen One Bring many sons to glory. How great the pain of searing loss; The Father turns His face away, As wounds which mar the Chosen One Bring many sons to glory.

Behold the Man upon a cross, My sin upon His shoulders; Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers. Behold the Man upon a cross, My sin upon His shoulders; Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers.

It was my sin that held Him there Until it was accomplished; His dying breath has brought me life I know that it is finished. It was my sin that held Him there Until it was accomplished; His dying breath has brought me life I know that it is finished.

The Ministry of John the Baptist Matthew 3:1-12, Mark 1:1-8, Luke 3:1-18 In the 15th year of Tiberius Caesar (~26A.D.), Israel was oppressed & had not had a prophet in 400 years Nothing had yet come from the miracles reported 30 years before,  but there was still hope for a Messiah

The Voice Crying in the Wilderness Matthew 3:1-6; Mark 1:2-6; Luke 3:3-6) John, a Levite, was at least 30 - the age a priest began ministry, and had the characteristics of a prophet John came in fulfillment of Isaiah 40:1-5 (Matthew 3:3; Mark 2:1; Luke 3:4; John 1:23) John is speaking because the word of God had come to him (Luke 3:2 cf. Isaiah 40:1)

The Voice Crying in the Wilderness Matthew 3:1-6; Mark 1:2-6; Luke 3:3-6) John is calling from the wilderness (Luke 3:2 cf. Isaiah 40:3) John’s message of repentance was the means to “make ready the way of the Lord” (Matthew 3:2; Isaiah 40:3) John fulfilled the prophecy of Malachi 3:1 as the Messiah’s herald (Mark 1:2)

The Voice Crying in the Wilderness Matthew 3:1-6; Mark 1:2-6; Luke 3:3-6) John’s manner of dress and diet were in keeping with the prophets (Matthew 3:4; cf. Zechariah 13:4; 2 Kings 1:8) John was a man of great self-control - a quality that should be developed by every Christian (Galatians 5:21) John lived for the Lord because he was filled with the Spirit - as should be all Christians (Ephesians 5:18)

The Message of the Herald Matthew 3:1-2, 5-6; Mark 1:4-5; Luke 3:3 Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand Repentance has been part of the message of the Jewish prophets throughout history bwv / shub (to return) & mjn / nacham (to regret something / repent) - metanoevw / metanoeō & metavnoia / metanoia = change of mind / regret / conversion

The Message of the Herald Matthew 3:1-2, 5-6; Mark 1:4-5; Luke 3:3 As used by John and Jesus = “new expression to the ancient concept of religious & moral conversion.” You cannot return to trust the Lord if you do not turn from false beliefs Outward obedience is not enough - God wants the heart (Deuteronomy 6:4-6; 10:12-16)

The Message of the Herald Matthew 3:1-2, 5-6; Mark 1:4-5; Luke 3:3 John’s call to repentance (to turn to trust & obey the Lord) was to:  apostates,  the religious,  the ignorant

The Message of the Herald Matthew 3:1-2, 5-6; Mark 1:4-5; Luke 3:3 Repentance was the message of John, Jesus & the apostles (Matthew 4:17; Acts 2:38; 3:19; 17:30; 26:19-20; Romans 2:4; 2 Cor. 7:9,10; 12:21; 2 Timothy 2:25; Hebrews 6:1; 2 Peter 3:9; Revelation 2:5,16,21-22; 3:3,19)

The Nature of Repentance It is contrary to the gospel to equate repentance with turning from sin in order to qualify for salvation The nature of belief requires a change of mind to change the manner of life Repentance is a response to God’s work - 2 Corinthians 7:9-10; John 16:18; 2 Tim. 2:25-26; John 6:44

The Nature of Repentance Many people made the difficult journey to hear John’s message and be baptized by him (Matt. 3:5-6) John’s baptism of repentance was not ceremonial cleansing, but closer to proselyte baptism

The Fruit of Repentance Matthew 3:7-10; Luke 7-14 Matthew 3: John was not trying to win friends, but prepare people for the coming of the Messiah John was abrasive with the Pharisees & Scribes for they were the ones leading the people astray A truly changed heart would be demonstrated by the fruit of repentance - blood lineage cannot save

The Fruit of Repentance Matthew 3:7-10; Luke 7-14 Luke 3: practical examples of the fruit of repentance:  Sharing what you have with those in need  Being honest in your work  Being content with what you have & not stealing from / lying about others

Conclusions God is still calling everyone everywhere to repent (Acts 17:30) 1)God really does exist and will hold you accountable for everything you have ever done 2)The claims about the person & work of Jesus Christ are true

Conclusions 3)You cannot earn you way into God’s favor 4)You must trust in the person & work of Jesus Christ alone for forgiveness and salvation from sin 5)True repentance (change of mind) will have a corresponding change of behavior
