Bible Talks from Mark

Third mantra of the model world: Be True To Yourself. In what sense is it true and in what sense is it false?

Jesus demonstrates both his authority to forgive and how our greatest need is to be forgiven.

Our lives are precious. Jesus tells us here that the most important thing to give our lives to is loving God with all that we have. But there is a more important thing revealed here than simply ticking the box.

Jesus' prayer in Gethsemane (Mark 14:36) provides a pattern for all of us to pray.

1. Abba Father.

2 There is nothing our Dad can't do.

3. Father, get me out of here.

4. Father knows best.

By looking at the way Jesus prayed, we get a look into the value and privilege of a healthy prayer-life

What if we really believed the church is God’s family?
With God as our Father each Christian is a brother or sister in God’s forever family.

When we give our lives to Jesus we are united to God forever! But it doesn’t end there… we are also united to a family of brothers and sisters who call on the same Lord. In this sermon, we explore what would change if we really believed this.

Jesus teaches us what it means for him to be the Saviour of the world. He then goes on to describe what the true cost of following him will be, as he encourages us to consider this cost in light of heaven and hell.

Jesus shows his power and authority as he faces up to the full force of demonic power. We see ourselves in this tortured man who receives the transforming grace of God through Jesus.

It's not what we do but how we do it that matters. We will explore a series of attitudes in how we relate to those above, beside and below us in the work place.

The Bible is clear. There are two kingdoms; the kingdom of darkness, ruled by satan and doomed to failure and the kingdom of light, ruled by Jesus and is characterised by forgiveness and peace. Which kingdom do you belong to?

We have an inside out problem. Its not what goes into us, its what comes out of a us that makes him unclean. Jesus is the one that gives us a new heart so that we can love God and love others.
