Leader : Ray Briddon
The theme for today was “Messiah”
Reading : Psalm 19 Mark 8 21-
We were treated to a guitar solo from Ray “Let your love be my guide”
In Mark 8 v22 Jesus asks the disciples “Who do people say that I am ? and “Who do you say I am ?” they replied the people were divided some say John the Baptist, some Elijah and others one of the prophets. Peter had no hesitation in saying “You are the Messiah” The Son of God.
The Messiah was known as “The Anointed one” Kings were anointed (and still are) with Holy Oil Priests sere anointed with Oil The Messiah is also a priest Prophet were anointed with oil The Messiah is a prophet.
Again Ray sang to us “The Anointed one”
Do we agree that Jesus is The Messiah – does he tick all the boxes ?? Yes, of course – He fits every mention of The Messiah in the Bible
If we believe he is The Messiah then we need to : be saved, be forgiven, have salvation, surrender to His will. Can we do this ???
