PREPARE THE WAY
Luke 3:4: “As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: A voice of one calling in the desert, prepare the way for the Lord,…” This was John’s mission that focused on repentance and forgiveness of sin and the need for a Savior. As I have said before John’s baptism could not provide salvation; it had to be by the Holy Spirit through faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
In Acts 1:5, Jesus speaks to the Disciples: “For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” This occurred on the day of Pentecost when they were all together in one room, (Acts 2:1-4). It’s amazing how the Bible explains itself when you give it a chance. Today you might want to read a little about Jesus.
