Can you think of something in your life, family, church, and/or country that needs a fresh start? The message that John the Baptist preached is the gospel of new beginning — the arrival of the kingdom of God in Christ who brings lasting transformation and empowerment to all who turn to Him in faith and repentance.

This the message on Matthew 3:1-3 (He Arrived, Let’s Return) that I preached last Sunday. I pray and hope that the Lord would use it to bless, transform, and empower your life for His kingdom and glory.

In Christ, God’s kingdom has already come, and He grants salvation and blessings to all who believe in Him. Therefore, He calls us to return to Him and live lives of faith and repentance. Because they alone are saved and blessed who are of true faith. And true faith is known by its fruit of repentance.
