Dr. Jordan Rogers continues preaching verse-by-verse through The Gospel of John in this sermon from John 1:6-9 entitled, “The Witness Sent by God.”
John’s purpose in John 1:6-9 is to briefly, but clearly, identify the person and role of John the Baptist in the Gospel account. John was sent by God to bear witness about Christ, but John was not the Christ. In this passage we see that a true witness to Christ represents Him faithfully and seeks only His glory.
The following is a sermon on John 1:6-9, and below you will find the video recording and a sermon outline to help you follow along as you watch. I hope this study tool helps you grow in your love for the Lord Jesus and in your obedience to Him.
