Verse of The Week (03/25/16)


What Jesus Endured (Mk. Ch. 14 & 15)

Read Mark chapters 14 & 15.  See if you can find other things to add to my list.

WHAT JESUS ENDURED
  • Betrayal (Mk. 14:10-11, 17-18)
  • Abandonment (Mk. 14:27, 50)
  • Denial (Mk. 14:29-31, 66-72)
  • Distress, trouble and sorrow (Mk. 14:32-34)
  • Rejection (Mk. 15:6-11)
  • Scourging / flogging (Mk. 15:12-15)
  • Crucifixion (Mk. 15:16-24)
  • Blasphemy (Mk. 15:25-30, 33-37)
  • Mockery (Mk. 15:16-20, 31-32)
  • Reviling (Mk. 15:32)
  • Being forsaken (Mk. 15:34)
As an extra, read "The Physical Suffering of Jesus".  It's insightful, except for the last sentence. Another good resource is found here.

Black Friday Is Good Friday

Black Friday:  The day Americans got up way too early to spend money they didn't have to buy things they didn't need (regardless of the insane deal) to impress people they might not even like.  Sad.

The true Black Friday hapened 2012 years ago!  "Now from the sixth hour darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour" (Mt. 27:45).  We know it as Good Friday.  What a spiritual purchase was made for us that day!

Stop shopping around.  Grace is still the best deal out there.  The price has already been paid for you.  This gift is free.  Take this to church tomorrow and tell the pastor you want to know more.
"He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so
that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."
(2 Cor. 5:21)
