IC?The Herald of the Christ
TOUNO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
?Character and Work of John, the
Baptist
> John was a great man. In an
nouncing his birth the angel said.
"Ha ahall be great In the sight of the
Lord." He tfes not only great th the
Lord's sight, bat was great when
measured by the standards of men. In
the teaching of this lesson a surrey
should be made of John's life and'
work.
I. Birth and Ministry Foretold
(Matt. 8:8; ef. Isa. 40:8).
He was thought about and his work
planned long before he was born. He
came as Clod's messenger. His life w as
a plan of Ood. He was said to be a
man sent from Ood (John 1:6). There
la a sense In which every life Is
planned?everyone Is sent from Ood.
Everyone should remember that Ood
has something to do with his life.
II. His Character.
1. Humble (Luke 8:4). He did not
seek human praise and commendation.
His supreme concern was to proclaim
the Christ. M* did not make himself
prominent?was only a voice calling
npon people to prepare for the Mes
siah. His person and habits were a
protest against the luxury and hypo
critical formality of his time. m
2. Courageous (Luke 8:7). He faced
a great multitude and struck hard at
their sins. He did not. trim his mes
sage to suit the crowd. He even de
nounced the religious leaders of his
yme and demanded of them frnlts
worthy of repentance.
III. Hla Preaching (Luke 8:3-8).
1. Demanded Repentance (vv. 8-6).
Suddenly emerging from hla seclusion,
ha came Into the region of the Jordan
aa a messenger of Gad. calling upon
the people to repent In preparation for
the coming of the Messiah.
2. Demanded Proofs of Penitence
(wv. T, 8). He inalsfed that their false
religions be abandoned?their slnfnl
hearts renovated?showed them that
the vfle passions of their souls must
hq, uprooted. A change of mind, Jhst
is, the turning of the soul from, sin to
Ood, was necessary. This Is a prepa
ration which must be made before one
can see and experience the salvation
of God.
IV. Jesus' Testimony ta John (Luke
T:24-28). Because John did not nee
the Interval between the "sufferings
of Christ" and th$ "glory that should
follow" he was perplexed. Therefore
he sent a deputation ta Jesus far light.
The prophets did not see. or at least
did not make clear, the Interval be
tween the crucMxlon of Chsist and His
second coming. The two events were
so presented aa to appear to be In close
succession. John In his preaching has
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 coming of
the Messiah la fiery Judgment?"the
ax Is laid unto the root of the trees"
and "the chaff Is burned np with un
quenchable Are" (Matt 3:10, 12). The
trend of events puzzled him. It wss
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 persecu
tion. 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. 28). Jesus declared that
no greater prophet had arisen. That
which perplexed John was the delay In
Judgment?the day of God's patleoce
while gathering out the Church. This
was a truth not disclosed to the
prophets?that which Paul made
known?because a special revatsMon
had been granted (Dph. 8:3).
