Welcome to Calvary's Online Campus!

Join us for an in-depth, verse-by-verse exploration of Mark 1:1-8 as we begin our comprehensive study of the Gospel of Mark. This opening passage introduces us to John the Baptist, the wilderness prophet who prepared the way for Jesus Christ.

Key Topics:
1. The meaning of “Gospel” in Roman imperial context vs Christian context
2. Why Mark opens with “The beginning””- connecting Genesis to the Gospel
3. John the Baptist's role as the prophetic messenger
4. The significance of wilderness baptism and repentance
5. Jesus as “Son of God” - early Christian theology
6. Prophetic fulfillment from Malachi 3:1 and Isaiah 40:3

The Gospel of Mark is the earliest written Gospel account, and these opening verses establish the foundation for everything that follows. Understanding John the Baptist’s role helps us grasp the magnitude of Jesus’ identity and mission. This isn't just ancient history - it’s the beginning of the most important story ever told.

Whether you’re a seasoned Bible scholar or just beginning your journey of faith, this detailed exposition will deepen your understanding of Scripture and strengthen your appreciation for God’s perfect timing in sending His Son.

We pray that you are blessed by the message!
