The Ministry of the Forerunner
Mark 1:2-8
 
Introduction:
            Have you ever asked yourself who from history you would like to meet?
If I could pick one person (besides Jesus), I think that it might be John the Baptist.
Jesus said of John that “among those born of women none is greater than John.”
(Luke 7:28)  Realistically I know that I can’t go back in time, however Mark has given us the opportunity to go back and meet John through his account of the Gospel.
As we do this, it will become clear that everything about John pointed to Jesus.
So as we look at John we should be convicted to be like him, but more than that we should be amazed at the glory of Christ.
