Notes:
This 2nd weekend of Advent listen to John the
Baptist
·
“John the Baptist appeared, preaching in the desert of Judea and saying,
“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!”
·
That is a great text for each of us
today during Advent
John the Baptist was the bridge between all
prophets before him, and leading to Jesus Christ
Where did John the Baptist
live: the desert
·
Think of how many people in the Bible lived in the desert
o
Moses
o
Israelites
o
Elijah
o
Jesus Christ
Do
you know that Jesus said this too?
·
His first words in Mark is: “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God
is at hand; repent, and believe in the gospel.”
Reform
your life: repent!
·
Confession on Tuesday night with other priests

·
My life is to be given to other people
