In the teaching of this lesson * survey Should be made of John', life and work. I. Birth gnd Ministry Foretold (Matt. 3:3; of. Jjg 40:3). He was thought about and hi* work planned long before he was bort). |ly came as God a messenger. Hi, lify was « plan of jiod. He was said to be a man sent from God (John 1 :«). There Is a sense in which every hfe la planned—everyone iq S j*nt frpj God. Everyone |hould remember that God has something to do with his Ufa 11. Hi* Character. 1. Uutpbltf (Luke 3 f). He did riot aeek human praise and comuieiidatlen His supreme concern was to proclaim the Christ He did not make himself prominent—was only * voice calling upon people to prepare for the Mea alah. His person and habit* were a protest against the Injury and hypocritical formality of his time. 2. Courageous (Luke 3 7) He faced a great multitude and struck hard at their sins. He did not trim hl* message to suit the crowd. He even denounced the religious lenders of his time and demanded of them fruits worthy of repentance 111. His Preaching (Luke 3:3-8). 1. Demanded Repentance (vv. 3-6) Suddenly emerging from bi* feclujlon. he came into the region of the Jordan as a messenger of God. calling upon the people to repent in preparation for the coming of the Messiah. 2. Demanded Proofs of Penitence (vv. 7,8). He Insiste<l that their false religions ho abandoned -their sinful hearts renovated- showed them that th* 'lie passions of their souls must he uprooted. A change of mind, that Is. the turning of the soul from sin to God, was necessary. This Is a preparation which must be made before one can see and experience tlye salvation of God. IV. Jesus’ Testimony to John (I.uke 7:24-28). Because John did not see the interval between the “hufferingb of Christ" and the "glory that should follow" he was perplexed. Therefore he sent a deputation to Jesus for The prophets did not see, or at least did not make dear, the interval between the crucifixion of Christ and His second coming The two events were *<> presented as to appear to be in dose succession Jolm In his preaching bns stressed the mighty judgments which should take place at the appearance of the Messiah. The turn things were taking (he himself being imprisoned with the gloomy prospect of death), was In great contrast to the coiplng of the Meswiah in fiery Judgment—“the ax Is laid unto 'he root of the trees" and "the chaff Is burned up with unquen"liable Are” (Matt. 310. 12). 'I lie trend of events puzzled him. It was not lack of faith, but confusion of mind that prompted his Inquiry. Christ’s testimony defended him against any such an accusation. Christ vindicated him against a vacillating mind because of the storms of persecution. He was not like a reed shaken by the wind (v. 24). He had lived a life of self-denial, therefore he did not deny his faith in Christ because of the dungeon (v. 25). Jesus declared that no greater prophet had arisen. That which perplexed John was the delay In judgment—the day of God’s patience while gathering out the Church. This a truth P‘>t disclosed to the prophets—that which Paul made known—because a special revelation had been granted (Eph. 3:3) V. Th* Martyrdom of John (Mark 6:14-29). , u , While John was In prison Herod had frequent interviews with him.
