In Philippians 3:10, the Apostle Paul expresses his heartfelt desire, “that I may know Him (Christ).” Paul had known Christ for many years as his Savior and Lord, so what did he mean? Paul desired to know Jesus Christ more deeply through experiencing a close, personal relationship with Him on a daily basis. In this series of Bible messages, we explore how we, as believers in Christ, can experience this same thing in our own lives.
These Bible messages entitled “Knowing Christ” were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2021 during the morning worship services at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

The Baptism of John - Part 1
We begin looking at the baptism of John, a prophet sent by God as a messenger, a forerunner to go before the face of the Lord and prepare His way. He did so by making ready the people of Israel to receive their promised Messiah and King. John's message was "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!"
Scripture References: Luke 1:15-17, Matthew 3:1-6, Luke 7:24-28, Luke 3:1-6, Luke 1:76-80
From Series: "The Baptisms of Scripture"
This series of Bible studies examines the many different baptisms found in the Scriptures, looking at the practice and meaning of each. Much focus will be placed on the one baptism that is still in operation today in this present dispensation of God's grace: the baptism by the Holy Spirit that places believers into Christ. These lessons were given during the adult Sunday school class at Grace Bible Church in 2021.
