We're Gonna Need a Bigger Messiah

Preacher: Daniel Lanning Series: Mark: The Forgotten Gospel Scripture: Mark 12:35–44

WE’RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER MESSIAH

Mark 12:35-44

The Role of the Messiah:

Psalm 110, Acts 2:34-36, Ephesians 1:15-23, Colossians 3:1-4, Hebrews 1:1-4

  • The Jews were expecting a human king, in the line of David; God gave them himself

Demonstrations of Giving:

1 Kings 17:7-16, Matthew 6:1-15, Matthew 23:1-12, Luke 11:42-52, Luke 18:18-34

  • The goal of the scribes was to look good in the eyes of people, without considering what God thought. 
  • The goal of the widow was to love God with everything she had. 

Taking it Home:

  • Jesus is the king who gives all of himself.
  • Loving obedience to God will always cost me something. 
  • What is stopping me from following where Jesus is leading me?
