Paving the Way for Christ #

Mark 1:5-8

I. The Multitude – (5) #

  • People are essential to ministry, you cannot minister to people you do not have.

  • People are not central goal of the ministry!

    • We do not compromise truth to get people in or to keep people in

A. Coming from #

1. Judaea - was the area surrounding Jerusalem. #

  • Word spread, and people traveled.
  • Travel was not easy in Bible times... they did.

2. Jerusalem - #

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Getting into the Ministry #

Mark 1:9-11

Introduction

We are not out of the first chapter of Mark, and we see the beginning of Jesus ministry. The message is titled, “Getting into the Ministry” because there are many lessons that we can learn from Jesus getting started in the ministry. We all, every one of us should be involved in ministry! I’m not talking about being a preacher, I’m talking about getting involved in the ministry of our local church.

Obedience to God #

Acts 8:26-39

Introduction

Our passage this morning is probably the most clear passage exemplifying baptism in all the Bible! There are other passages that discuss baptism, but this one is very clear.

I. The Soulwinner (Philip) #

• Philip was already actively sharing Jesus! 

Acts 8:5–6 —5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.
