MARK "CHRIST OUR SERVANT"

Mark 10:45 "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." (NKJV) Worship Christ the Servant!

Outline:
The Birth and Preparation of Servant Jesus 1:1 - 13;
Servant Jesus Speaks and Serves 1:14 - 13:37;
Servant Jesus Suffers and Triumphs in Passion Week 14:1 - 16:20.

In a gospel written from Peter's words to the fast paced Roman Empire, Jesus is constantly in action!

Mark, perhaps the first gospel account written, opens with: The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God."

One of the clearest pictures of Jesus can be found in the Gospels. Tonight trace three lines that together give us a snapshot of Christ as seen through the eyes of PEOPLE AROUND Him.

Christ in Mark outlines this beautiful portrait of Jesus.
