The Beginning of the Gospel Of Truth
According to Mark, the gospel begins with John the Baptist.
Mark 1:1-3. The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God. As it is written in the prophets: behold I send my messenger before your face which shall prepare your way before you. The voice of one crying out in the wilderness to prepare the way of the Lord, make His paths straight.
We are given two scriptures, from Isaiah 40, and from Malachi 3, from which the ministry of John the Baptist draws an anointing from the Spirit of Truth.
The gospel of John tells us the ministry of John the Baptist also served as a test on the hearts of all who heard his message.
John 1:6, 7. There was a man sent from God whose name was John. The same came for
a witness to testify of the Light that all through him might believe.
It is said of John that he was sent from God. Compare this to the answer
Jesus gave to the question: what must we do to perform the works of God?
John 6:29. Jesus answered and said: this is the work of God: that you believe
the one whom He has sent.
The words of all who are sent by God become a basis for faith.
Ephesians 2:20. Having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone.
