Mark's Gospel (Page 6)

Mark 6:1-6 Familiarity breeds comtempt. When Jesus returned to Nazareth, the citizens did not accept His teaching because they were so familiar with Him. Here is an obstacle to evangelism: the problem of familiarity.

Mark 5:21-43 Jesus shows us in our passage that He is the Lord of life – He has power over the dead. He said on another occasion, „For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, even so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes„ (John 5:21).

Mark 5:25-34 We consider the account of the woman with a hemorrhage who touched Jesus’ garments.

Mark 4:30-34 In the parable of the mustard seed, Jesus tells us now how large and powerful His kingdom will become: It will begin very small – like a mustard seed, but it will grow very large – eventually filling the earth and becoming the greatest of all kingdoms.

Mark 4:26-29 Through the parable of the farmer, Jesus shows us how the Gospel progresses in the lives of individuals and also in the world as a whole. As the seed of the Gospel is sown in the world and hearts are changed, so is the world.

Mark 4:21-23 Jesus came into the world as a light in a dark place, and in the Great Commission He has commanded us to follow His example in our own lives. In this message, we are challenged to shine the light of His word into the world and not hide it under a basket.

Mark 4:9-12 We consider the phrase, „He who has ears to hear, let him hear.„ Jesus wasn’t implying that there were a lot of physically deaf people present as He was speaking, He was saying there were some who could truly understand what He was saying.

Mark 4:1-20 The Parable of the Sower is the story of a farmer who goes out to sow his field in the hope of a good crop; but who sees different results in the different types of soil in his field. Jesus uses this to illustrate the possible results in evangelism.

Mark 3:20-21, 31-35 Jesus teaches us something very important about His family in this passage. He helps us to see that He has many brothers and sisters and mothers, and shows us who they are.
