Understanding the Identity, Mission & Authority of Jesus | MARK

Описание: Welcome to our weekly Bible Study at Crossroads! In today’s teaching, we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark, focusing on Mark 1:14–39.

Here is the first video:    • Identifying Jesus' Power & Ministry | Mark...  

This powerful passage reveals two central themes:

1️⃣ The Call of the First Disciples
We explore how Jesus called Simon, Andrew, James, and John — not from poverty or obscurity, but from established, successful lives as fishermen and businessmen in Galilee. Their immediate obedience highlights the irresistible authority and invitation of Christ:
“Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

2️⃣ The Authority of Jesus in Teaching & Deliverance
Mark emphasises the unique authority of Jesus — unlike the scribes who quoted others, Jesus spoke from His own divine power. This authority is demonstrated in the synagogue at Capernaum, where Jesus commands an unclean spirit, and it obeys instantly.

This study dives deep into:
✔️ What true discipleship requires
✔️ Why repentance is the foundation of the gospel
✔️ How Jesus’ authority transforms lives
✔️ The significance of Galilee in Jesus’ early ministry
✔️ What it means to follow Christ in our own vocations, careers, and comfort zones

✨ Key Themes Covered
🔹 The beginning of Jesus’ preaching ministry
🔹 “Repent and believe the Gospel” — the first message of the Kingdom
🔹 Understanding the cultural context of fishermen in Galilee
🔹 The cost and call of discipleship
🔹 Jesus’ unmatched authority in word and deed
🔹 Deliverance in the synagogue — spiritual warfare in the presence of Christ
