Ash Wednesday - John the Baptist
Mar 02, 2022
Detail
As we begin our Lenten journey, we focus our attention upon various witnesses to Christ in John's Gospel. We begin with John the Baptist, a man on a mission. "There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. He came as to witness concerning that light, so that through him all people might believe" (John 1: 6 - 7). John the Baptist's mission is "to witness concerning the light." In fact, fourteen times in John's Gospel, the word witness is connected with John the Baptist. "He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to every person was coming into the world" (John 1: 8 - 9). Join us as Pastor Johann discusses how John points us to Jesus, the light, who takes away our sin, our guilt, and our shame at the cross.
