Preparing the way for Jesus

John's teaching prepared the way for Jesus. What was his message? "Poduce fruit in keeping with repentance" don't rest on Abraham as your father.
They ask, "How are we to do this?"
John says, the one with two tunics should give to the man with none.
The one with food should give to the man with none.
People in authority should not exploit those undersubmission.

As I was thinking about waiting for the second coming of Christ this seems like a message that should be preached to the church today. Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. Don't say to me I prayed the sinners prayer, God could make rocks pray the sinners prayer. Produce fruit that is keeping with repentance. Those in the top couple of percents of the world's wealth, share and help those who are not. Do not use your power to exploit other nations, other peoples. Give to the person with out food, or clothes.

Maybe in doing these things it will hasten the return of Christ.
