I know that today I read chapter 15 of Mark, but I want to say one more thing about chapter 14 before I do.
Jesus, in the garden of Gethsemane, prayed saying:
Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
This is just a reminder that all the good things that Jesus did and the wise things that he said add up to just another religion without his obedience to the father in the sacrifice of his life and the shedding of his blood.
There are plenty of other religions that welcome and even include Jesus, but leave out the blood and the meaning of his sacrifice on our behalf both in the past and today in our daily lives.
