I must admit to grand plans of really going through chapters
14-15-16 of Mark, but I am already in Luke so I will sort of recap the last chapters in Mark.
First of all I would like to point out that there is no portion of these chapters that is more important than the other, they come as a whole. The very essence of our new life with God is lived out daily by experiencing our:
1. Our commitment to God in recognizing the need for the death of our flesh revealed by the Holy Ghost.
2. The blood atoning for our sin applied by the Holy Ghost.
3. The burial of the old man of sin accomplished by the Holy Ghost.
4. The resurrection to new life in the power of the Holy Ghost.
Our part in all of this is to heed the call and submit to God’s authority, the Holy Ghost does the rest. We experience all that God has through his Spirit, the spirit of life in Christ Jesus:
Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
On to Luke…
