Jesus > John (Various Scriptures)

Picking up off of last week we are looking at some of the similarities between Jesus and John the Baptist. John was great, he was spoken of in the OT, he has the Holy Spirit, but ultimately his job was to let everyone know that Jesus was coming… follow us as we take a look at this subject. Sermon Notes: Ice Breaker: Have you ever had something that was good, but then found the same thing in a different brand that turned out to be even better? Big Idea: John the Baptist is great, but Jesus is GREATER Sermon Outline: A. Supernatural Birth 1. Birth of John a. Prophetic Announcement (Ish 40:3) b. Angelic Visit (Luke 3:13-17) c. Filling of the Spirit (Luke 1:39-45) 2. Birth of Jesus a. Prophetic Announcement (Ish 7:14) b. Angelic Visit (Luke 1:30-33) B. Message of Repentance 1. John Preaches a. Repent (Matt 3:1-2) b. Baptized with Water (Matt 3:11-12) 2. Jesus Preaches a. Repent (Mark 1:14-15) b. Is the Way (John 14:6) C. Died For What They Know 1. John Beheaded a. Leader bitterness (Mark 6:18-19) 2. Jesus Crucified a. One Way (John 8:58; 10:30) b. The Why (1Peter 2:22-24) c. His mission (John 3:16-17) Application: When you are looking to Christ, do you have a personal relationship with Him or is it through someone or something else? Do you truly understand the freedom that comes with a life in Jesus?
