Greetings!
Start your new year off with life-changing worship! This Sunday we will begin to walk through some passages in the Gospel of Mark. We will also be celebrating the ordinance of baptism. If you have trusted in Christ and have not been baptized, this would be a great way to start your new year. If you need to be baptized or if you need more information, please call the church office at 665-6278. We would be glad to assist you in your walk with the Lord.
See you in worship this Sunday.
Pastor Joe
This Sunday's Scripture Passage:
Mark 1:1-13 (NIV)
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 As it is written in the Prophets:
“ Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,
Who will prepare Your way before You.”
3 “ The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘ Prepare the way of the LORD;
Make His paths straight.’”
4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 Now John was clothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
7 And he preached, saying, “There comes One after me who is mightier than I, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
8 I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
John Baptizes Jesus
9 It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.
11 Then a voice came from heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Satan Tempts Jesus
12 Immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.
13 And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to Him.
