1 | Why the question in John 1:25? | Luke 1:17 | christian7 | 52337 | ||
John being filled with the Holy Spirit from his birth(Luke 1:15)did not attend the schools to study under the Pharisees and they wanted to know who gave him this authority...or who he was...in the Old Testament you will find these scriptures Mal.4:5,6 refering to Elijah... Deuteronomy 18:15,18 refering to Christ or the Prophet...and please look at John 4:25...John never said that he was anything but a VOICE but Jesus said in Mat.11:11-14 that John was Elijah also please look at Luke 1:17 which shows that John was in the Spirit of Elijah or Elias which is the same as Elijah... I hope this helps you some...may God Bless you MOTHERPHILO and keep studying your doing a great job | ||||||
2 | Baptism was a church ordinance? | Luke 1:17 | MOTHERPHILO | 52339 | ||
So, you are basically saying that, baptism, in itself was practiced, but because John was not part of the "church", the religious people were questioning his authority or challenging it, unless they could determine that he was the Christ, the Prophet, or Elijah? | ||||||
3 | Baptism was a church ordinance? | Luke 1:17 | christian7 | 52348 | ||
the Baptism that John was doing...John being the only one who was doing this...had the religious Pharisees in an uproar because people were supposed to go to the Synagogue to have the Priest remove thier sins...John was preaching baptism for the repentance of sin (Luke 3:3) and the religious leaders wanted to know by what authority he was doing this...if you will notice MOTHERPHILO even as Jesus was praching that these leaders wanted all the attention brought to them and to no one else...anytime someone threatens thier position they get upset...but I would also like to add that when the truth is spoken that it always stops them in their tracks...I love the way that God's word says that God resist the proud and gives grace to the humble...they were just to proud...(James 4:6)... I hope this helps a litle more...God Bless you MOTHERPHILO and keep studying | ||||||
