Go into all the world!
Submitted by Dapedersen on Sat, 02/01/2020 - 11:3816:15 Mark “He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation." (NIV)
Jesus gave the disciples (and us) the ‘great commission’. We are not to keep the Good News to ourselves. We are not to shut the world out from this life-changing and life-saving message. We are to go into the world. We are to share it widely. We are to share it with people who may have rejected it before… God gives them another chance. Let that be top of mind each day… ‘how can I let the love of Christ reach others with His salvation.’ >u>Be a blessing!
Make the unbelievable become faith in Him!
Submitted by Dapedersen on Fri, 01/31/2020 - 13:2216:11 Mark “When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it." (NIV)
Jesus is alive. Mary had seen Him. It was true. Jesus did conquer death. She thought the others would be excited with this news. She was wrong. They did not believe her. It sounded too good to be true… it still does sound too good to be true to many people. We must persist in telling the story of the resurrection. Sins are forgiven. New life has begun. We can know Him personally. Let your faith increase as you grow in your love for Him!
He has risen! Hallelujah!
Submitted by Dapedersen on Thu, 01/30/2020 - 13:1316:06 Mark “Don't be alarmed," he said. "You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him." (NIV)
He died for our sins!
Submitted by Dapedersen on Wed, 01/29/2020 - 14:3615:37 Mark. “With a loud cry, Jesus breathed his last." (NIV)
Mark makes the account of the crucifixion very focused. Limited descriptions. Just the major facts. Not much about the other words of Jesus from the cross. Just that He breathed His last. Just eight words that punctuate an extraordinary life and what would become an even more extraordinary resurrection and ascension into heaven. He prepared a path for us. Let us ALL walk on that path to meet with Him in heaven.
