Easter will be here before we know it!
Easter will be here before we know it!
One day Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee, and John baptized him in the Jordan River. As Jesus came up out of the water, he saw the heavens splitting apart and the Holy Spirit descending on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.”
Meetings, meetings and more meetings this week!
So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
Several team meetings coming up and the youth is still selling Easter candy!
And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have heard from Me; for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
The calendar is getting fuller!
Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over and came to his own town. 2 Some men brought to him a paralyzed man, lying on a mat. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.”
Lots going on! And . . . will Phil see his shadow next Friday!
There is a transition made in the New Testament. Old Testament is the protection and preservation of Israel, the promises of God made to Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and David, all made with the promise of a rescuer, a Messiah. Jesus claims to be THAT Messiah!
