DEEPER DIVE: Living It Series: "The Gospel" with Johnny Scott
There are two major things in this “Title” to Marks Gospel.
First Thing: Jesus is the ONLY good news. He is the Ultimate Good News. Mark is telling all of Rome, a conquering nation like none the world has seen before, that he has found some good news that makes all of their attempts at good news look like child’s play.
The Second Thing: Jesus, unlike all the conquering generals of the day and emperors who claimed to be ‘divine’ REALLY is the SON of God. Mark will quickly go about proving these bold statements.
Technically, these are very dangerous things to say. They were politically dangerous in Mark’s time and have things really changed in our time? Socially politically danger is something we know more about than real life-threatening persecution. Regardless, anything we hold above Christ, our life or social standing, can become an idol.
So again, I would ask the important question, “have we tamed Jesus?” The best antidote or medicine is to survey who Jesus is REALLY and compare that reality of who Christ is with our made-up versions.
If we are looking at the Gospel this week; and I do want to be a voice that warns you to have your filter up out there, people are painting pictures of Jesus. Are they true? Real? We looked at some things that Jesus did, or pictures of Jesus, in a rant this weekend on stage. What are some other BOLD things that Jesus would say?
I want to point you to some BOLD Statements from Jesus.
Here are 7 I am statements that Jesus gives us to help us truly know who He is and what He is REALLY LIKE!
Take some time this week to read the stories around how Jesus describes Himself, His agenda, what He offers and how He really intends to treat you if you follow Him.
