Carry Each Other's Burdens

The Gospel of Mark Mark 1:14-45 1. The King determines the Time v. 14 Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, 15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.” v. 25 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” v. 34 And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him. v. 44 and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to them.” 45 But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places, and people were coming to him from every quarter. 2. The King is Authoritative v. 17 And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” 18 And immediately they left their nets and followed him. v. 20 And immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants and followed him. v. 22 And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes. v. 27 And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” v. 31 And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her, and she began to serve them. 3. The King is Compassionate v. 41 Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him and said to him, “I will; be clean.” 42 And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean. v. 38 And he said to them, “Let us go on to the next towns, that I may preach there also, for that is why I came out.” v. 15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.”

The King Has Come

The Gospel of Mark Mark 1:1-15 1. A servant serves with humility. 2. Our service is centered on Christ. 3. When you serve, the Savior is exalted.

Keep The One

Find the One In John 10:10 Jesus said the thief comes to steal kill and destroy, but I have come to give life and life abundantly. 1. Pursue . Song of Solomon 3:4I have found the one whom my soul loves Song of Songs 1:12 While the king was at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance. Song of Songs 2:2 Like a lily among thorns is my darling among the young women. 3 Like an apple[a] tree among the trees of the forest is my beloved among the young men. I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my taste. 4 Let him lead me to the banquet hall, and let his banner over me be love. 2. Jesus 2 Corinthians 61:4-15 14 Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15 What harmony is there between Christ and Belial[a]? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 3. Observe Song of Songs 1:6 Do not stare at me because I am dark, because I am darkened by the sun. My mother’s sons were angry with me and made me take care of the vineyards; my own vineyard I had to neglect. Song of Songs 1:9-10 I liken you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariot horses. 10 Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels. Galatians 5:22 says, “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” 4. Counsel Proverbs 24:6, “Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers.” Song of Songs 1:4b, “We will praise your love more than wine.

He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. 6. Purity Song of Songs 2:7b, “Do not arouse or awaken love until is so desires.” Proverbs 3:6- Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Find The One

Be the One “The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks.” Luke 6:45 1. Family Matters. 2 Kings 14:2-6 2 Amaziah He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Jehoaddan; she was from Jerusalem. 3 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, but not as his father David had done. In everything he followed the example of his father Joash. 4 The high places, however, were not removed; the people continued to offer sacrifices and burn incense there. 5 After the kingdom was firmly in his grasp, he executed the officials who had murdered his father the king. 6 Yet he did not put the children of the assassins to death, in accordance with what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses where the Lord commanded: “Parents are not to be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their parents; each will die for their own sin. “And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days he was instructed by Jehoiada the priest.” 2 Kings 12:2 2. Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future. 1 Kings 12:6-11 6 Then King Rehoboam consulted the elders who had served his father Solomon during his lifetime. “How would you advise me to answer these people?” he asked. 7 They replied, “If today you will be a servant to these people and serve them and give them a favorable answer, they will always be your servants.” 8 But Rehoboam rejected the advice the elders gave him and consulted the young men who had grown up with him and were serving him. 9 He asked them, “What is your advice? How should we answer these people who say to me, ‘Lighten the yoke your father put on us’?”10 The young men who had grown up with him replied, “These people have said to you, ‘Your father put a heavy yoke on us, but make our yoke lighter.’ Now tell them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist. 11 My father laid on you a heavy yoke; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions.’” 3. Tear Down the High Places. 2 Kings 18:2-4 Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-nine years. His mother’s name was Abijah daughter of Zechariah. 3 He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father David had done. 4 He removed the high places, smashed the sacred stones and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke into pieces the bronze snake Moses had made, for up to that time the Israelites had been burning incense to it.” His Grace > My Past

Be The One

The One Ecclesiastes 12:9-14 Hevel - meaningless, smoke, or vapor. “Although a wicked person who commits a hundred crimes may live a long time, I know that it will go better with those who fear God, who are reverent before him.” —Ecclesiastes 8:12 “Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs. 10 The Teacher searched to find just the right words, and what he wrote was upright and true. 11 The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails—given by one shepherd.[a] 12 Be warned, my son, of anything in addition to them. Of making many books there is no end, and much study wearies the body. 13 Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind. 14 For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.” —Ecclesiastes 12:9-14 “Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup. 29 For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves. 30 That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.” —1 Corinthians 11:28

Know The One

Ichabod 2 Chronicles 7:1-3 2 Chronicles 7:1-3, “When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the temple. 2 The priests could not enter the temple of the Lord because the glory of the Lord filled it. 3 When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of the Lord above the temple, they knelt on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to the Lord, saying, “He is good; his love endures forever.” 1. The Glory of the LORD filled the temple. Shekinah - God's manifested glory 2. The Lord fills us today with His presence and power. a. Jesus came. “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14 14 b. Holy Spirit came. “Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God?” 1 Corinthians 6:19 “Light yourself on fire with passion and people will come from miles to watch you burn.” --John Wesley 3. The glory of LORD is not a guarantee in our life. “Phinneas wife, She named the boy Ichabod, saying, “The Glory has departed from Israel"—because of the capture of the ark of God and the deaths of her father-in-law and her husband.” 1 Samuel 4:21 “Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.” Revelation 2:4-5 4. Be filled with the glory of God a. We are in Christ – Positional Salvation Romans 8:1 there is therefor no condemnation for those who are in Christ. Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Colossians 3:3 For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. b. Christ in us – Sanctification Colossians 1:27 “To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory” “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20
