Synopsis "More Than a Prophet: The Earth Shaping Ministry of John the Baptist"
"What was the spectacle that drew you to the wilderness? A reed-bed swept by the wind? No? Then what did you go out to see? A man dressed in silks and satins? Surely you must look in palaces for that. But why did you go out? To see a prophet? "Yes indeed, and far more than a prophet. "He is the man of whom the scripture says, 'Here is my herald, whom I send on ahead of you, and he will prepare your way before you.' "I tell you this: never has there appeared on earth a mother's son greater than John the Baptist, and yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. "Ever since the coming of John the Baptist the kingdom of heaven has been subjected to violence and violent men are seizing it. For all the prophets and the Law foretold things to come until John came, and John is the destined Elijah, if you will but accept it. If you have ears, then hear." -Jesus Christ (Matt 11:7-15 NEB) To this day the ministry of John the Baptist remains an enigma to many. Who was this peculiarly intense hermit of a prophet who laid the very principles of Christianity? Who was this mysterious fulfillment of the prophet Elijah, and what was his ministry really about? In this book we will consider the life, ministry, and influence of John whom the Son of God called 'far more than a prophet.' This is not simply a biography - for his life can be seen in glimpses through the four Gospels of scripture. Herein we will examine the earliest foundations of Christianity as laid by God's messenger: John the Baptist. The early church was laid solidly upon the foundation of John's ministry, which was a precursor to Jesus Christ's own. Throughout Jesus ministry John's teachings were consistently affirmed as necessary and foundational to His own. What was it that so greatly pleased God about this man's ministry? What were those necessary foundations that Jesus Christ so consistently affirmed? John paved the way for Jesus' ministry - according to scripture, all who come to Christ must first experience the ministry of John. Indeed, what did we turn aside into the 'wilderness' to see?
