“The King Proclaimed” Matthew 3:1-6

TRANSCRIPT

Date: January 9, 2022 Author: Wayne J. Edwards

Just as God prepared the world for the first coming of our Savior, so is He working all things together for His soon return. We may not think so, but everything is working exactly according to His divine plan, design, and desire, and in the fullness of time, God will send forth His Son. Beloved, since the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us 2000 years ago, there has not been a fresh word from God, and there will not be, because God has already said all that needs to be said for a lost man to be saved. The next fresh word from God will be the visible return of Jesus Christ as the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. We will explain this further in our next sermon in this series – “Behold the King: The King is Proclaimed.”

Old Testament Reading: Malachi 3:1-3, 4:5-6 – New Testament Reading: Luke 1:5-25, 57-80

The 39 books of the Old Testament can be summed up in two “bookend” verses.

Malachi 4:5-6 was the last word from God for 400 years. There were no prophets, no angelic messengers, and no acts of chastisement or miraculous blessings from God.

Matthew’s goal in writing his gospel is to prove Jesus was and is the King who will one day rule the world.
