 Welcome! Today we return to the beginning of Jesus’ ministry for the salvation of all mankind. We find Him in the Jordan River baptized by John. A baptism to fulfill all Scripture and to officially institute Jesus as Son and Messiah of God. He hears His Father say exactly who He is. "You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased. Then, "The Spirit immediately drove Him out into the wilderness...tempted by Satan." Some way to treat one’s "well beloved"! You, dear friend, are also "well beloved" of God. He "works together all things" for your ultimate good, including the trials and temptations you endure. He is building you up through tribulations of all kinds that you may be found in Him, pure and holy. Just as He loves Jesus so He loves you! Listen to Jesus: "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the Gospel." It’s Lent. May you be blessed by knowing forgiveness through the repentance of faith. See you Wednesday. TAGS: Service Announcements
