In this sermon, the speaker begins by referencing Mark 16 and Luke 1 from the Bible. He highlights how Jesus reproached his disciples for their lack of belief in his resurrection and then commanded them to preach the gospel to the world. The speaker also mentions that some versions of the Bible omit miracles and end with Jesus' death on the cross, portraying him as a good man and advocate of peace. However, the speaker emphasizes that the Bible is truly all about Jesus and explores the significance of his ministry and his role as the Son of God.

John Nelson Darby discusses the distinct characteristics and purposes of the first three Gospels, emphasizing that Mark presents a chronological account of Christ's service, while Matthew focuses on the presentation of Jesus as the Messiah and the implications of His rejection. He notes that Luke, while generally following Mark's order, includes moral teachings that are unique to his Gospel. Darby highlights the importance of understanding the genealogies and the context of Christ's ministry, particularly in relation to Israel's expectations and the establishment of the church. He concludes that the Gospels collectively reveal the nature of Christ's mission and the unfolding of God's plan for humanity.

John Gill discusses the historical context of baptism among the Jews, asserting that the practice of baptizing proselytes, including infants, predates John the Baptist and Jesus. He references several learned scholars who support the idea that baptism was a well-known rite of initiation within Jewish tradition, which explains the lack of explicit mention of infant baptism in the New Testament. Gill emphasizes that this Jewish custom served as a foundation for the Christian practice of baptism, suggesting that it was not a new concept but rather a continuation of an existing tradition. He argues that understanding this background is crucial for comprehending the significance of baptism in Christianity. The sermon ultimately seeks to validate the practice of infant baptism by linking it to Jewish customs.
