Four Portraits of Jesus Christ
Why Four Gospels? Four Portraits of Jesus Christ Matthew For Jews (1:1-2) Jesus, Messiah and King (1:1; 2:1-2; 21:5) “Fulfilled” Mark For Romans (12:42) Jesus, Sacrificial Servant (10:45) “Immediately” Luke For Gentiles (1:3) Jesus, Savior of All Mankind (14:22; 19:10) “Son of Man” John For Jews and Gentiles Jesus, Divine Son of God (1:1,14; 20:31) “Believe” … “Eternal life”

Mark’s Emphasis on Jesus as Servant
Mark uses the word “immediately” to show the action of a servant 1:10; 1:12; 1:29; 1:30; 1:43; 2:8; 2:12; 4:29; 5:2; 5:30; 5:42; 6:50; 6:54; 7:25; 8:10; 9:14-15; 9:20; 10:52; 11:2-3; 14:43; 14:45; 15:1 Mark contains activities and lessons by Jesus illustrating service 1:35; 1:38; 1:45; 3:21; 5:3-5; 6:31; 7:33-34; 8:22-25; 9:22,26-27; 9:41; 10:30; 10:39; 10:45; 12:29; 21:41-44

Mark 8: Applications For Today
1. Jesus did not use a “social gospel” approach to evangelism by feeding the people first to get them interested in the preaching. Jesus taught the people first and then fed them (8:1-3). 2. Jesus cares. He feels compassion for the needs of mankind (8:2). 3. Eating should be orderly, with thankfulness and without waste (8:6-9). 4. A person’s evil character and teaching can slowly influence a good person for the worse – like leaven working in a lump of dough (8:15). 5. Let us not be slow to understand what Jesus is telling us (8:17-21). 6. Do what Jesus says even if it doesn’t make sense to us (8:26,30). 7. Do not stand in Jesus’ way. Do what God wants, not what you want (8:32-33). 8. True disciples of Jesus will put Jesus first and be unashamed of Jesus (8:34-38).

1. The kingdom of God has already been established with power (9:1). There will be no future millennial kingdom on the earth as taught by premillennialists. 2. We must listen to Jesus and Jesus only (9:7-8). 3. For those with a great faith, all things are possible to him that believes (9:23). (Remember, “all things” means “all things” within the plan and purpose of God for mankind.) 4. Greatness comes to those who are servants and humble (9:35-36). 5. Jesus is not promoting denominationalism in Mark 9:38-39 as some teach today. Jesus is teaching that one with authority from Jesus can act even though he is not acting within a certain group that also has the same authority. 6. Make whatever sacrifice necessary to eliminate whatever will cause you to stumble and go to hell (9:43-48). 7. Christians need to be seasoned with salt: flavoring, preserving, and purifying the world around them (9:50). 8. Instead of disputing among brethren (9:34), let there be peace among brethren (9:50).

Marriage, Divorce, Remarriage: A Summary
Matthew 5:32 You put away (except for fornication), you make her an adulteress; one who marries her commits adultery Matthew 19:3-9 let not man put asunder; you put away (except for fornication) and marry another you commit adultery; one who marries her commits adultery Mark 10:2-12 let not man put asunder; You put away wife and marry another you commit adultery against her; you put away your husband and marry another you commit adultery Luke 16:18 You put away your wife and marry another you commit adultery; one who marries her commits adultery Romans 7:2-3 wife and husband are bound as long as each one lives; death releases you from the marriage bond; if you are joined to another while your first husband lives you will be called an adulteress 1 Corinthians 7:10-16,27,39 do not depart; if you do, remain unmarried or be reconciled; if unbeliever departs let him, you are not under bondage; are you bound in marriage, seek not to be loosed; the wife is bound in marriage as long as her husband lives; if dead marry only in the Lord See also: Genesis 2:18-24; Malachi 2:14-15; Ephesians 5:21-33; Hebrews 13:4

1. Marriage should always be taken seriously. It is a commitment for life that must not be broken (10:9). 2. A humble, obedient, genuine (innocent), child-like faith is required of all disciples of Jesus (10:15). 3. True love shows itself by telling someone who is wrong what they need to do to change (10:21; Rev. 3:19). 4. “Treasures in heaven” are more valuable than “great possessions” on earth (10:21-22). 5. Trusting in riches rather than trusting in God will keep us out of heaven (10:24). 6. It is worth following Jesus no matter what we have to give up to do it (10:28-31). 7. True greatness starts with service (10:43-45). 8. Don’t let anyone stop you from getting to Jesus (10:48).

1. If we have something the Lord needs (such as our time and talents), we must let him use it for his service (11:3). 2. Jesus expects to find us bearing fruit in our lives (11:12-14). 3. We must remember the purpose of God’s house. It is a place of worship, not of worldliness (11:17). 4. Faith and doubt have no place together (11:22-24). 5. Forgive others in order to be forgiven yourself (11:25-26). 6. We must have authority for what we do in religion and our authority must come from God, not from men (11:27-33). 7. Jesus used a method of teaching that involved answering a question with a question. Also, Jesus chose not to answer a question when the ones asking it were insincere (11:29-30).

1. When you reject the blessings of Jesus, he will turn and give those blessing to others who want them (12:9). You can reject Jesus, but he will still be the head of the church (12:10-11). 2. We must obey man’s law and we must obey God’s law (12:17). However, when man’s law is in conflict with God’s law, we must follow God’s law over man’s law (Acts 5:29). 3. We make great religious errors when we are ignorant of the scriptures and the power of God (12:24,27). 4. Our soul lives on after our body dies (12:27). All the dead will be raised in the judgment day (12:25-26). If you die before the Lord comes, will you be raised to the resurrection of life or to the resurrection of judgment (Jn. 5:28-29)? 5. Jesus was not teaching that some of God’s commandments can be ignored. He was teaching that all of our important responsibilities in life revolve around two great principles: (1) loving God with all of our being, and (2) loving our neighbor as we would want to be loved (12:29-33). 6. Jesus is not just a man, he is Lord God (12:36-37). 7. Proud people refuse to hear Jesus, but humble people will gladly listen to him (12:37). 8. Our religious service to the Lord should be genuine and not for show. It should bring attention to God, not to self (12:38-40). 9. God looks at the amount of sacrifice in the giving, not the amount itself (12:41-44)?

1. The Lord said “take heed” and forewarned of the dangers that lie ahead in life. To be forewarned is to be forearmed (13:5,9,23). 2. Christians will be greatly reward when they are persecuted for the Lord’s sake and when they endure such persecution (13:9-13). 3. The Lord expects us to understand what we read in his word (13:14). 4. Don’t follow deceivers and false Christs even though they look like the truth (13:5-6,21-22). 5. The Lord’s word always comes to pass (13:31). 6. We need to be working and watching while waiting for the Lord to return (13:33-37).

1. Jesus is our Passover (14:1-2; 1 Cor. 5:7). 2. Those who make great sacrifices for the Lord (14:3,5) and do what they can for the Lord (14:8) will be remembered and rewarded (14:9). 3. The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Don’t make bargains with the world which conveniently serve your own selfish desires (14:10-11). 4. When it comes to those in the church who trouble the Lord, we would do well to ask, “Is it I?” (14:19)? 5. Without a memorial we tend to forget and not appreciate the sacrifice that was made for us. We must always remember the body and blood sacrifice of Jesus (14:22-25)? 6. Before making a promise ask yourself, “Should I keep this? Can I keep this? Will I keep this?” (14:31). 7. Jesus prayed the prayer of submissive obedience while the disciples were to pray the prayer of vigilance (14:35-39). Both of these prayers are needed in our life today. 8. Watching and praying will keep us from falling into temptation (14:38). 9. Denying Jesus can come by taking slow gradual steps away from him (14:37-38, 54, 66ff). If we deny the Lord today, he will deny us in the last day (14:66-71). 10. We do not defend Jesus and his honor by fighting a literal battle (14:47). 11. Don’t make Jesus say something he didn’t say (14:57-58). 12. Thinking about the words of Jesus in the Bible can cause one to have regret (14:72).

1. Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords (15:2,12,26). 2. Jesus was tortured emotionally and physically before even going to the cross (15:15-20). May we never forget the great sacrifice of Jesus on our behalf! 3. What will you do with Jesus (15:15)? Do not be weak like Pilate! 4. It is possible for some to pretend to worship and honor Jesus (15:19). 5. Must Jesus bear his cross alone (15:21)? We must bear the cross of Jesus (Heb. 13:13). 6. Jesus was crucified to save mankind from sin. What was said as a mock, “He saved others…,” was actually the truth (15:31). 7. Jesus’ death gave all mankind access to God (15:38; Heb. 9:7-8,24; 10:19-21). 8. Truth often comes from those whom you would least expect (15:39). 9. Like Joseph of Arimathaea, we need to have boldness and courage to identify ourselves as followers of Christ (15:43).

Why Is the Resurrection So Important?
1. It demonstrates that Jesus is the Son of God (Rom. 1:4) 2. It demonstrates that death has been conquered (1 Cor. 15:54-56) 3. It demonstrates that there is life after death (Lk. 20:37; John 5:29; 11:24-25; Acts 24:15) 4. It gives meaning to the entire life of the Christian (1 Cor. 15:12ff) 5. It gives the Christian hope (1 Peter 1:3) 6. It is necessary for salvation (Rom. 4:24-25; 10:9) 7. It is necessary for our intercession (Rom. 8:34)

Peter, Luke 24:12,34 Peter begins his journey back to faithfulness (see Luke 22:32) 4. Two Emmaeus travelers, Luke 24:13-35 A burning desire to hear God’s word 5. Ten disciples (Thomas absent), John 20:19-22 Unbelief is unacceptable, and fear must give way to peace 6. Eleven disciples (Thomas present), John 20:24-28 (see also 20:1-9) Faith is rational and reasonable; faith is based upon the evidence of eyewitness testimony

Lessons from the Resurrection Appearances
Matthew 28:1-20; Mark 16:1-20; Luke 24:1-53; John 20:1 – 21:23; Acts 1:1-10; 1 Corinthians 1:-11 Appearance Lesson 7. Seven disciples on the Sea of Galilee, Peter in particular, John 21:1-23 Following Jesus involves genuine love and focusing on your own responsibilities 8. Eleven disciples, Matthew 28:16-20 The Lord’s work is not finished – go into all the world and preach the gospel 9. Five hundred brethren at once, Corinthians 15:6 Five hundred eyewitness confirmed the truthfulness of the resurrection 10. James the Lord’s brother, Corinthians 15:7 One could not fake a resurrection, but James would know what his own brother looked like 11. Disciples who watched Jesus ascend into heaven, Acts 1:9-11 Jesus is coming again just like he left! 12. Saul of Tarsus, Acts 9,22,26; 1 Corinthians 15:8-11 Quit fighting against God, you won’t win! Change, and use your life for the Lord!

1. We are expected to believe the eyewitness testimony of the resurrection of Jesus (16:11,13,14). 2. The “Great Commission” is still for us today. Let us continue to take the gospel into all the world (16:15). 3. The choice is simple: believe the gospel and receive salvation or disbelieve the gospel and receive condemnation (16:16). 4. Belief coupled with baptism is necessary for salvation (16:16). This is confirmed in the book of Acts where the apostles carried out the “Great Commission” (note the belief and baptism in these passages Acts 8:13; 8:37-38; 16:31-33; 18:8). 5. We must submit to the authority of Jesus Christ as he rules and reigns at the right hand of God (16:19; Eph. 1:20-23). 6. God’s word has been confirmed as true by miraculous signs (16:20; Heb. 2:3-4).
