Death is a common theme in today’s reading. Jesus speaks of His death, the need for the disciples to “die”, and says that some will not die until they see the kingdom of God present with power.

Mark 4:26-41

Mark 3:1-19
Jesus is undeterred by His enemies; He continues to show His power over sickness, disease, and demons – all of which confirms His teachings. We also see Jesus choosing twelve men who would be instrumental in carrying forth the good news of the gospel. How wonderful would it be to have Jesus among us today to heal all our sick and diseased friends and family? The truth is, the power of Jesus is still available to cure the most terrible disease to ever infect mankind – sin. And, we still have His apostles to show us the way through the preaching of the gospel. Their guidance is found throughout the New Testament; please join us as we continue to study and learn from these great men and those they influenced.
