Betrayed and Denied

October 12, 2014 ()

Bible Text: Mark 14:26-72 |

Series:

In this text, Jesus is betrayed, abandoned, and denied. He is then beaten, mocked, and falsely accused. Yet, through this time of great suffering, Jesus is our source of hope and comfort. He went through this for his people. And now he is exalted, praying for his people that they would not fail, that they would not deny him.



Mark

The gospel of Mark tells us of the person and work of Jesus Christ. Under the inspiration of the Spirit, Mark presents Jesus as the Son of God and the suffering Servant sent to save his people. Mark stresses the authority of Jesus, his great sacrifice, and what it means to be his disciple. This book was given to make and encourage disciples of Jesus, and this sermon series seeks to do the same by proclaiming Mark's message for today's generation.
