Carry On

Luke 1:77 KJV
To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,

Apostle John would later declare. 1 John 5:13
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God that year might know that ye have eternal life...

There is nothing greater in this world than this knowledge. Gill says of the knowledge of salvation
".. the "knowledge" of this is not merely, notional and speculative, but experimental, approbative, fiducial, appropriating, sure, and certain; and is more excellent, than any other kind of knowledge whatever... "

As the forerunner, John the Baptist first gave to men the knowledge that there was such a salvation available. It was not a deliverance from troubles in life but a spiritual salvation from sin that results in eternal life.

It is our pleasure to carry on the mission of John the Baptist in giving others the knowledge that salvation is available by the remission of sin through Jesus Christ.
