Gospels Instruction

1. Question: What was the main response John the Baptist desired in the hearts of those who heard his message?

2. True or false? John the Baptist taught that the Messiah would baptize with water and the Holy Spirit.

3. Fill in the blanks: John the Baptist said, "Every tree which does not bear good --------- is cut down and thrown into the ---------."

1. Repentance (Matt. 3:2), the necessary personal response to prepare for the kingdom of God.
 
 
2. False. Holy Spirit and fire (Matt. 3:11).
 
3. "Fruit...fire" (Matt. 3:10). He said this to warn his Jewish audience not to trust their ancestry to make them acceptable to God. Each of them stood accountable for himself.
