Sermon Tone Analysis

You're a Bible with you.

You can follow along.

If not, it should be up behind me on the screen.

We're just going to read the verses and then talk about them.

A little bit.

Verse 9 of Mark chapter one says in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan.

As soon as he came up out of the water.

He saw the heavens being torn open and the spirit descending on him like a dove.

And my voice Came From Heaven, you are my beloved Son with you.

I'm well, pleased, we pray with me by the way.

Just come again before your throne.

And just ask God that your spirit will guide us in the truth.

Are we just desire to know your truth in what you've preserved for us in your word and we just ask your spirit to illuminate us to the truth and more importantly that we not only be heroes of the word guy, but that would allow us.

And give us the opportunity to work to to take.

What we, what we learned in the wisdom that we Garner Lord to apply to our relationship with you, that we can worship you in a deeper, meaning, in a deeper way, as we learn more and more about you, God.

We're so thankful that you've given us the opportunity to know who you are, and how we can have a relationship and be able to worship you in spirit and in truth.

So we thank you and just ask for your help.

Now, in the name of Jesus.

Amen.

All right, so we just have a few things to go through is just a few verses.

The first thing that we seen Mark chapter 1 verse 9 is, we see that Jesus comes from Nazareth.

He's the Nazarene right in those.

Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and desired to be able to as he came into this, into his creation, to be able to save his people.

All those things that the Old Testament prophesied about Jesus was the, the answered was the Fulfillment of that.

And the Jewish people of that time has an expectation of the Messiah coming, they were looking for them.

It's obvious through the gospel that we see, even the religious leaders in the people have this expectation of the Messiah, and Jesus doesn't meet that expectation.

And Jesus being from Nazareth, is yet another strike against him in the eyes of the common culture or against in the eyes of the, of the religious delete because the people in Nazareth were or not.

Oh, they were not held to high esteem.

They were a kind of look down upon in the region of Galilee.

I think all of us can relate to that, right?

We have like, I can, I am from California and for the sake of not offending, anybody.

I won't tell you what.

I think that aren't for the California is, but there's a certain area that I think, is the armpit, right?

Maybe not the people, but at least the region.

And that's kind of essentially what the people of the time thought of the nazarenes in the area of Galilee.

And it's kind of been a derogative term Even in our age.

In 2014.

If you remember Isis, invaded a part of Iraq and invaded the city and will do I almost forgot what it was and 20.

And they begin to Mark out different houses with the Arabic letter n.

And I was to denote the Christians there because the end was stood for openly for the Nazarene that he, there were following the Nazarene.

And so we see this idea.

Jesus comes from Nazareth in Galilee.

Mark is giving us the start, the beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

He he says the beginning of the Gospel is when he got baptized, when it came to John the Baptist who was doing a baptism of repentance and baptism of repentance, for the remission of sins, as in the earlier versus you can read that and we have sermons on that.

So I'm going to try really hard not to reproduce my sermon from a couple weeks ago and I move on here and so jamas, do or John the Baptist was doing that and Jesus comes to John and gets baptized by him.

Which might throw us for a loop as we discussed last week, the DT of Jesus Christ in the uniqueness of Jesus Christ made him unique to all of us because he is from God.

He came from Heaven.

He was of the Virgin births.

He did not have that signature, that you.

And I were born with all those things that we discussed last week.

There.

I go again, we preaching my sermon, but that, the uniqueness of Jesus.

And so, why would Jesus have to be baptized?

And I hope I can answer that this evening for scripture.

Jesus came and began his Earthly ministry here.

So I was up in Jerusalem around 2780.

He's around 30 years old.

But we know he grew up in Nazareth.

He was, he was a boy and he grew up and there's very little and scripture that talks about his, his, his his youth.

We have a few Windows into that.

But we see him showing up on the scene and fulfilling this Messiah.

Prophecy that is all throughout the at the Old Testament.

So we go on and we snowed that that negative connotation of the Nazarene has even found in scripture, right.

John record this time when I Phillips comes and tells Nathaniel about about Jesus, the Messiah showing up.

And and Nathaniel says, can anything good come out of negative connotation is obviously there.

Bi-Lo on in the last part of verse 919b and receive that price baptism in.

And then he was baptized in the Jordan by John and the other gospels are more Fuller picture of this time.

And that's what's great about.

The the gospels is that developed a unique and deeper pitcher for us, but we're just going through market right now.

And so we're trying to stick with what Mark is trying to convey.

But sometimes we need to go into other gospels to be able to see the Fuller picture, what's going on.

As we did last week, and we see here that he was baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan River.

And we see him in Matthew asking or John the Baptist asking him while I don't need about, you need to baptize me.

And what Jesus's reply was a Mathews.

I need to fulfill every all righteousness.

I needed to be baptized.

He need to be baptized as well.

And so that's why Jesus is baptized.

And so, what of it?

Why did Jesus have to be baptized?

If he's truly God In the Flesh?

If he's truly Emmanuel, God With Us with no sin.

And that we know that this baptism is of repentance for the Forgiveness of sins in.

So if he had no sin, why did he need to be baptized?

But ultimately what Jesus is doing?

And what the will of the father is, right?

He still feeling.

All right.

Mrs. Jesus comes in a mediately identifies with Mankind and his skin problem that he answers in to humanity into his creation.

And he he identify with the the weakness in the nature of of us, right.

He's our great high priest who has compassion because in Hebrew doctor, Peters says because he knows what it's like to be human and live in a fallen world.

And that's why Jesus had to be baptized because it was the father's will that Jesus would identify with us as men and women in our problem of sin?

That's why John, the Baptist was baptizing for the repentant suspends because Simba Simba lies in the needs of the problem to prepare.

The way for the Lord, is to take that get our skin problem, taken care of, and Jesus comes and identifies with us.

Being baptized even though he knew no sin 1st Corinthians 5:21 since he became sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

He identified with us.

He took on Manny's became a man.

He humbled himself Philippines to says, to become a servant so that he could come and serve us and openly to pay the penalty that you and I deserve for our sin and immediately in the beginning of his baptism in the massage, shows up the identified with man in the same problem by through this testimony through this.

Baptism we go on and we see the Triune testimony of the Son of God in verses 10 and 11.

The Triune testimony of the Son of God.
