Mark

This week we are encouraged to look at the farmer in Mark 4. Look at the farmer, and you will see just how hard our mission is. It certainly isn’t for the faint-hearted. We need to ensure that the seed of the word of God is sown indiscriminately and liberally in every corner of the field. We do that because we know that seed that is sown in good soil will produce a harvest. With that knowledge, what are we to do? How are we to respond? How and why should we keep following Jesus?

In this week’s passage, we see stories of people rejecting Jesus, and a lot of people being saved into Jesus’ new family. To everyone who calls on Jesus’ name for help, we see Jesus healing them, giving them rest, and forgiving their sins. And Jesus’ church the same today: it’s filled with broken people who have called on his name because they need his help. But it’s a great comfort that the onus isn’t ultimately on us to do what only Jesus can do: heal broken hearts, give true rest, and forgive sins.

So far in our new sermon series, Mark has started to show us who Jesus is. This week he shows us what Jesus came to do. Jesus tells people to leave everything else and “Follow me”. We’ll see why it might be worth doing that: only Jesus can meet our most desperate need.

This week we are kicking off our new sermon series in Mark. The wait is over! Jesus Christ, God’s promised King, the Son of God, has come. The Old Testament testifies to his coming. John the Baptist testifies. The Triune God testifies, even the devil testifies to the good news that the Saviour of the world has come! Jesus himself testifies to the truth, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near.” If this is all true, then our lives can never be the same. We need to repent and start believing the gospel.
