My Beloved Son
Family Churchman
Mark 1:11
And there came a voice from heaven, saying, You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.


I. AN EXPRESSION OF AFFECTION AND APPROVAL. The Father bore witness to the Son. Not for Christ's sake only, but for ours, came that voice, approving the character and authenticating the mission of the Son of God.

II. AN IMPLICIT AND AUTHORITATIVE APPEAL for human faith, attachment, and obedience. He of whom the Father thus speaks, is worthy of all our honour, gratitude, and devotion.
