Week 1: Mark 1:1-13 - James Sharp

<p>Pastor James begins our sermon series in the Gospel of Mark.<br/><br/>MARK 1:1-13</p><p><em>&quot;In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.&quot; - John 1:1</em></p><p>Why is the coming of Jesus <em>good news</em>?</p><ol><li>The coming of Jesus is good news because of the identity of Jesus (1:1)</li><li>The coming of Jesus is good news because of the promise of Jesus (1:2-8)</li><li>The coming of Jesus is good news because of the obedience of Jesus (1:9-11)</li><li>The coming of Jesus is good news because of the help of Jesus (1:12-13)</li></ol><p>&quot;Since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.&quot; - Hebrews 4:14-16</p><p><br/></p><p>Life Church exists to glorify God by making disciples who <b>treasure Christ, grow together</b>, and <b>live on mission</b>.
