  • The Gospel of Mark
    The Gospel of Mark A Living Word Independent Bible Study The Gospel of Mark Part 44 Mark 16:1-8 A Living Word Independent Bible Study The earliest manuscripts of Mark’s Gospel that have been found end with the eight verses in today’s lesson. Later manuscripts include a variety of additional endings that are typically set apart from the rest of the Gospel in modern translations. These endings will be the subject of the final lesson in this study. Mark 16:1-8 ( NIV) The eight verses to be covered in this session contain Mark’s telling INTRODUCTION of the events of Easter morning. It should be noted that each of the four Gospels describes the events of Easter morning somewhat differently. Just as four witnesses to one event may give their testimony to the event somewhat differently, the Gospel writers record the events somewhat differently as well. Early in its history, the Christian church found value in keeping all four Gospels as part of its tradition, rather than attempting to consolidate the four Gospels into a single authoritative account of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. While these variations are not unimportant, in a study of a SINGLE Gospel, it is helpful to try to understand the perspective of that particular writer. “Sabbath was over” Mark 16:1 ( NIV) This implies that it was sometime after 6:00 PM on Saturday evening that the women went to purchase spices. When the Sabbath was They would not have been permitted to “work” – over, Mary Magdalene, purchasing or preparing perfumes and ointments – ON the Mary the mother of Sabbath itself.

  • The Historical Value of the Fourth Gospel. Iv
    HISTORICAL VALUE OF THE FOURTH GOSPEL 431 a man of his own'people and age, with all the limitations which that involved, than Christian theologians generally have been prepared to concede. But that he held notispiritual and moral, but often magical views of the sacraments seems to the writer to require far more conclusive evidence than yet has been furnished. That he was a sacramen~arian in the modern sense of the word, the treatment of the Jewish law, and especi­ ally of circumcision, in the Epistle to the Galatians makes it quite impossible to believe. How could the man who de­ clared that both circumcision and uncircumcision availed nothing, only faith energising in love, assign superior efficacy for the Christian life to any " weak and beggarly rudiments " (Gal. iv. 9) ~ It is surely to miss his intention to suppose that his argument is not directed against ritualism generally, but against the combination of Jewish with Christian ritualism. He who laid all emphasis on the sufficiency of faith alone to bring each believer into living union with God in Christ, thus giving the spirit of adoption and freedom of access, was no sacerdotalist. What would he have said of the figment of apostolic succession, who so vehemently claimed that he was an apostle, " not from man, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father" 1 We do best to view the Church with Paul from the standpoint of the faith, hope, and love that are in Christ the Lord.

  • Giotto's Fleeing Apostle
    Giotto’s Fleeing Apostle PAUL BAROLSKY —In memory of Andrew Ladis Ihave previously suggested in these pages that in the Humanities, to which this journal is dedicated, the doctrine of ut pictura poesis dominates our thinking to such an extent that we often make false or over-simplified equa- tions between texts and images, even though there is never an exact identity between words, which tell, and mute im- ages, which show. The falsifying equation between text and image is a corrupting factor in what is called “iconography,” the discipline that seeks, however imperfectly, to give verbal meaning to wordless images. Texts may suggest connota- tions or implications of images, but images never render the exact denotations of these texts. I would like to suggest here a single example of such a delicate if not fragile link between text and image—a case in which the artist begins with a text but transforms it into something other than what the words of the text describe. My example is found in the art of one of the great masters in the history of European art. I speak of Giotto. Of all the personages that Giotto painted in the Scrovegni Chapel, one of the most mysterious is the forbidding, hooded figure with his back to us, who clutches a drapery in his clenched fist in the left foreground of the Arrest of Jesus (fig. 1). This ominous figure leads us down a fascinating path. In his magisterial book Giotto’s O, Andrew Ladis ob- serves that the “anonymous henchman” has in his “rigid grasp” the robe of an “inconstant and indeterminate apostle who flees .

  • Rembrandt: the Denial of Peter
    http://www.amatterofmind.us/ PIERRE BEAUDRY’S GALACTIC PARKING LOT REMBRANDT: THE DENIAL OF PETER How an artistic composition reveals the essence of an axiomatic moment of truth By Pierre Beaudry, 9/23/16 Figure 1 Rembrandt (1606-1669), The Denial of Peter, (1660) Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Page 1 of 14 http://www.amatterofmind.us/ PIERRE BEAUDRY’S GALACTIC PARKING LOT INTRODUCTION: A PRAYER ON CANVAS All four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John have reported on the prediction that Jesus made during the Last Supper, stating that Peter would disown him three times before the night was over, and all four mentioned the event of that denial in one form or another. If ever there was a religious subject that was made popular for painters in the Netherlands during the first half of the seventeenth century, it was the denial of Peter. More than twenty European artists of that period, most of them were Dutch, chose to depict the famous biblical scene, but none of them touched on the subject in the profound axiomatic manner that Rembrandt did. Rembrandt chose to go against the public opinion view of Peter’s denial and addressed the fundamental issue of the axiomatic change that takes place in the mind of an individual at the moment when he is confronted with the truth of having to risk his own life for the benefit of another. This report has three sections: 1. THE STORY OF THE NIGHT WHEN PETER’S LIFE WAS CHANGED 2. THE TURBULENT SENSUAL NOISE BEHIND THE DIFFERENT POPULAR PAINTINGS OF PETER’S DENIAL 3.

We remember the words that he gave us as a sign and a promise. Let us light a candle of remembrance; light the third candle We remember the wrestling prayer of Gethsemane, and our own weakness. Let us light a candle of remembrance; light the fourth candle. We remember the betrayal of Judas and the temptation of silver for blood. Let us light a candle of remembrance; light the fifth candle. We remember the denial of Peter, and the temptation to reject that which we love. Let us light a candle of remembrance; light the sixth candle. We remember the verdict of Pilate, and the power of empire. Let us light a candle of remembrance; light the seventh candle. We remember the darkness of the land, tearing of the temple's curtain, the shaking of the earth, the splitting of the rocks, the taste of sour wine, and the last breath of God. In the flickering of these lights, let us hold remembrance for all of life.

  • “God the Accused” Ezekiel Lutheran Church April 2, 2021 7:00 P.M
    April 2, 2021 Good Friday “God the Accused” Ezekiel Lutheran Church April 2, 2021 7:00 p.m. Preparing for Worship As you enter the Sanctuary, you are invited to make the transition from “getting here” to “being here.” Take a moment to silence phones. You may use these moments of quiet time to listen to the Gathering Music as you prepare to come fully into the presence of God and our community of faith. Please stand as you are able during worship. Welcome to Worship At the heart of the Good Friday liturgy is the passion according to the gospel of John, which proclaims Jesus as a triumphant king who defeats sin, death, and the devil from the cross. The ancient title for this day—the triumph of the cross—reminds of that the church gathers not to mourn this day but to see the reality that, in what we consider weakness, God’s kingdom is coming to you through Christ. Christ’s life-giving passion gives you the faith, strength and hope in the tree of life. This is why we put forward to God our petitions for all the world for whom Christ died so that Christ’s promises become real in his word of forgiveness for you and for all who hear and receive this promise. PRELUDE “Ah, Holy Jesus” H. Walcha SILENCE L: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. All: Amen WORDS OF INVITITATION L: Many centuries ago, an event took place in a part of the world far from here.

  • The Denials of Peter” John 18:12-28A (Part 2) February 14, 2021 Faith Presbyterian Church – Morning Service Pastor Nicoletti
    “The Denials of Peter” John 18:12-28a (Part 2) February 14, 2021 Faith Presbyterian Church – Morning Service Pastor Nicoletti This morning we return to John 18:12-28. Last Lord’s Day we looked at this passage and focused on the trial of Jesus. This morning we return to the same passage to consider how the disciples responded to Jesus’s arrest and trial. With that in mind, please do listen carefully, for this is God’s word for us this morning. 18:12 So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound him. 13 First they led him to Annas, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. 14 It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people. 15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, 16 but Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the servant girl who kept watch at the door, and brought Peter in. 17 The servant girl at the door said to Peter, “You also are not one of this man's disciples, are you?” He said, “I am not.” 18 Now the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves.

Easter is upon us. Are we prepared? Have we done a full and complete examination of our conscience? Have we committed to changing our attitudes? Are we ready to 'die to our sins and rise to new life in Christ’? That is what Easter offers us, the opportunity of new life, full life, salvation now and eternal life in Heaven. God loves all of us even if we are unworthy. He gave His only Son to die on the cross for us. Our sins are nailed to His cross. We can leave our guilt there and be free of our past and go forward with hope. The resurrection is all about hope, it is the promise of life beyond the grave. As Jesus rose from the tomb, we will rise too. Praise Him, thank Him and live in faith and in hope and in love.

  • The Patience of God During the Days When I Was Unsaved
    The Patience By Rev. Charles Svoboda of God “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” 2 Peter 3:9 INTRODUCTION Yours truly has always marveled at the patience of God during the days when I was unsaved. A godly mother waited, loving me and praying for her son to come to know Christ as Savior. Christians zeroed in on prayer for me to get saved. Well it happened in July 1941. Now I marvel at the patience of God in my life as He speaks to me through His Word concerning the weak areas in my Christian walk. Note God’s patience with Peter at various instances, and note the number THREE in each case revealing God’s patience with him. DENIAL OF PETER Three Tim es “And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the Word of the Lord, and how He had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.” –Luke 22:61 • Peter denied the Lord three times and was later restored. –Mark 16:1-7 • Peter who at one time for a brief moment walked on the sea, rebuked the Lord, saw Moses and Elijah on the Mt. of Transfiguration, cut off the ear of the servant of the High Priest, was a very unstable man until he surrendered completely to the Lord. It’s a new Peter in Acts 4:8-12. God patiently waited and worked on Peter.
