Knowing Our Faith in Jesus Is True
Mark wrote his account of the life and ministry of Jesus during the time that first-century Christians were facing intense persecution because of their faith. The timing is important. Mark, in penning his Gospel, was proclaiming without apology that Jesus was indeed the Messiah and the Son of God—the fulfillment of Israel's hopes who had indeed ushered in God's reign. Although things looked bleak for Christ followers, they could be sure the foundation of their faith was secure. They would receive an eternal reward if they remained faithful to their Lord.
Just like Mark's readers, you need to know that your faith is built on a solid foundation. In this twelve-lesson study, you will explore the context of Mark's Gospel and examine what you can glean from what he wrote and—just as importantly—what he didn't write. This is an invitation for you to learn more about Jesus and life in his kingdom as you examine this unique Gospel from the perspectives of a first-century Christian and a twenty-first century Christian.
Each study in the Applying the Bible to Life series employs a three-step process to help you understand both the historical meaning of a biblical text and its relevance in modern times. The original meaning section reveals the questions and concerns the author was addressing. The past to present section then explains what significance the original audience would have found in the passage and what significance you can find in it today. Finally, the questions that accompany each section will help you apply the author's words and teachings to your own life and find meaning in them for what you are facing.
