Opportunity of a Lifetime (26 of 37)
Series: Then Came Jesus

Mark 10:46-52
I.THE CONDITION OF THE MAN
II. THE CALL OF THE MASTER
This morning I want you to turn to Mark Chapter 10. We've been studying together the Gospel of Mark following the footsteps of Jesus and in Mark Chapter 10 we want to begin reading in Verse 46.

AND JESUS SAID UNTO HIM, GO THY WAY; THY FAITH HATH MADE THEE WHOLE. AND IMMEDIATELY HE RECEIVED HIS SIGHT, AND FOLLOWED JESUS IN THE WAY."
Now the Bible says here that Jesus was on His way through the city of Jericho. In our journey of following the Lord Jesus through the Gospel of Mark we've come to that time when Jesus is on His way to t ...
