The Gospel Project: Unit 22, Session 2
Jesus Heals a Woman and Raises a Girl. Mark 5
Point 3: Trust in Jesus' Power to Remove the Curse of Death. Mark 5: 35-42
This account doesn't give the names of the father or daughter. But I find it intriguing that Mark refers to the father as, "the ruler of the synagogue".
I think it demonstrates that "religion" isn't going to heal us, it doesn't have the Power we need! And it certainly won't provide us with Life Eternal! We must have a "relationship" with Christ, it is His Power that heals:
Spiritually
Physically
And Brings LIFE.
Religion serves as a vehicle to express our faith, gather in community, and serve others. But Healing, Salvation, Life come only through Faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Essential Doctrine:
What are some ways the Resurrection Power of Jesus has worked in you? Let's take a few minutes th Praise Him!
Today's Hymn:
Today's hymn comes at a time when we are being challenged on numerous fronts. Constant strife comes into our homes through the TV, Radio, Smartphone. It can dry up our Joy.
Let's sing for a renewal, a refreshed FLAME!
