In Luke 3: 3b: we read, “The Word of God came to John (the Baptist) the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. And he came into all the district around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins; as it is written in the Book of the words of Isaiah (40: 3:) the Prophet, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, make ready the way of the Lord, make His paths straight.” And these words still hold power and truth for us today, for from these verses we see a direct result of repentance, being the revelation of the glory of the Lord.
