Mark 17

A minister told his congregation, “Next week I plan to preach about the sin of lying. To help you understand my sermon, I want you all to read Mark 17.”

The following Sunday, as he prepared to deliver his sermon, the minister asked for a show of hands. He wanted to know how many had read Mark 17. Every hand went up.

The minister smiled and said, “Mark has only sixteen chapters. I will now proceed with my sermon on the sin of lying.”

I Pay All My Tithes

There were two men stranded on a deserted island. The first man was frantic and worried about being rescued. While the other was nice and calm, happy as could be.

The first man was pacing up and down the beach, worrying and cussing about what are they going to do. "They've got to find us, what are we going to eat, how long are we going to survive?" And so on he went just a worrying the whole time.

The other guy was just kicked back soaking up the sun, just having a good time. Not a worry in the world.

The first guy, irritated by his calmness, asked him "how can you be so calm, we're going to die if someone doesn’t find us?"

The second guy said "let me put it to you this way, first I'm a Christian, secondly I'm a CEO at my company, and I brought in over 500 thousand dollars last year, and I pay all my tithes. Believe me my pastor is going to find me."

Email From God

One day God was looking down at Earth and saw all of the evil that was going on. He decided to send an angel down to Earth to check it out.

So he called one of His angels and sent the angel to Earth for a time.

When the angel returned she told God: "Yes it is bad on Earth, 95% is bad and 5% is good."

Well, God thought for a moment and said: "Maybe I had better send down a second angel, to get another point of view."

So God called another angel and sent him to Earth for a time too.

When the angel returned he went to God and told Him: "Yes, the Earth was in decline, 95% was bad and 5% was good."

God thought this was not good. So He decided to E-mail the 5% that were good. He wanted to encourage them and give them a little something to help them keep going.

Do you know what that E-mail said?

...

You didn't get one either, huh?

Christian Alphabet

Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame.
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold on to what you know.
Imagine life without His love
Joy would cease to be
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee.
Move out of "Camp Complaining"
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone.
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with worship
To "thank" is a command.
Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky
We'll run the race with gratitude
Xalting God most high.
Yes, there will be good times and yes some will be bad, but...
Zion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

"Too blessed to be stressed!"

The shortest distance between a problem and a solution equals the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything. Be Blessed.

Big Trouble

There were two brothers, 8 and 10 years old, who were exceedingly mischievous. Whatever went wrong in the neighbourhood, it turned out they had had a hand in it. Their parents were at their wits' end trying to control them. Hearing about a priest nearby who worked with delinquent boys, the mother suggested to the father that they ask the priest to talk with the boys. The father agreed.

The mother went to the priest and made her request.

He agreed, but said he wanted to see the younger boy first and alone.

So the mother sent him to the priest.

The priest sat the boy down across from him at a huge impressive desk.

For about five minutes they just sat and stared at each other.

Finally, the priest pointed his forefinger at the boy and asked, "Where is God?"

The boy looked under the desk, in the corners of the room, all around, but said nothing.

Again, louder, the priest pointed at the boy and asked, "Where is God?"

Again the boy looked all around but said nothing.

A third time, in a louder, firmer voice, the priest leaned far across the desk and put his forefinger almost to the boy's nose, and asked, "Where is God?"

The boy panicked and ran all the way home.

Finding his older brother, he dragged him upstairs to their room and into the closet, where they usually plotted their mischief.

He finally said, "We are in BIG trouble."

The older boy asked, "What do you mean, 'BIG trouble'?"

His brother replied, "God is missing and they think we did it!"

Christ Is Better Than Moses

Preface

Hebrews 3:1 – 4:13

Describe your favorite ways of resting and relaxation. How often do you do this?

Introduction

Having argued for the supremacy of Jesus (who is shown to be superior to the prophets and the angels in the last Bible study), the Spirit-led writer of Hebrews now makes the case for how Christ is better than Moses, the one through whom the first covenant came.

The author will issue a second warning, now against forfeiting the rest offered to us (What was the first warning about?). The importance of rest is then expounded in chapter four.

Questions

1. Why is Moses so esteemed by the Hebrew people? Briefly recall facts about his life.

Read Hebrews 3:1-6

2a. In what way is Christ better than Moses?

b. Why did the writer of Hebrews argue that Jesus is greater than Moses?

Read Hebrews 3:7-19

3a. A warning is given, based on the Old Testament passage in verses 7-11. Who is this warning for?

b. What is the nature of the warning? (What is its severity of the warning? What is the tone of the author? Is it pleading or punitive? What effect does the rhetorical style used have on the feel of the message?)


c. What will be the result of not heeding this warning?

4. We are told to encourage one another to identify with Christ rather than be overcome by unbelief (Hebrews 3:13)

a. How is sin deceitful?


b. How does encouragement help?


c. How can God use you today to encourage another believer?

Read Hebrews 4:1-13

6. Who gets to experience God's rest?

Read Joshua 21:43-45

7a. Describe the kind of rest the people experienced. Of what did this rest consist? Did this rest last?


b. What does this rest mean for us as Christians?


8. Take some time to examine your own heart and life. Have you entered into God's rest through faith, or are you still trying to be saved through your own work and self-effort? What evidence would you give to support your answer?

Read Hebrews 4:12-13

9. The Word of God is the sword of the Spirit, which we are instructed to wield. How may we do so in the world of our everyday student lives?

Conclusion

The need for God's rest is urgent. A person should diligently, with intense purpose and concern, secure it. It is not that he can work his way to salvation, but that he should diligently seek to enter God's rest by faith – lest he, like the Israelites in the wilderness, lose the opportunity. God cannot be trifled with. If you are walking by faith today, you can feel sure of your security in the love of God.

Christ Is Better Than Angels

Preface

Hebrews 1:1 – 2:18

Many opinions abound about who Jesus is. List some common ideas about the identity of Jesus that you've heard.

Who do you believe Jesus is? Why?

Introduction

The overarching theme of Hebrews is the supremacy or the preeminence of Christ. He is higher than any Old Testament character. He is superior to any Old Testament institution. He is greater than any Old Testament ritual. He is better than any Old Testament sacrifice. His life, death and resurrection make Him preeminent.

In this Bible Study, the author shows how Jesus Christ is superior to angels, which are held in high regard by the Jews as highest beings next to God.

Questions

Read Hebrews 1 (Refer to Hebrews 1:1-4)

1. Consider the ways Jesus is described here. How would you summarize the ways Jesus is described here in a sentence?

a. What does it mean that God “has in these last days spoken to us by His Son”? (John 1:1-14)

b. What does it mean that Christ has been appointed heir of all things? (Psalm 2:8-9, 89:27, Romans 11:36, Colossians 1:15-18)

Refer Hebrews 1:4-14

3a. Discuss why God made angels. What are they for? (Deuteronomy 33:1-1, Psalm 68:17, 97:7, 104:4, Acts 7:38, 53, Galatians 3:19)

b. How does the passage contrast Jesus from the angels?

Read Hebrews 2 (Refer to Hebrews 2:1-4)

4. What warning does the writer issue?

5. What does it mean when it says, 'Jesus was perfected through suffering' (Hebrews 2:10), bearing in mind that He never sinned?

Read Colossians 1:13-20

6. In what ways does this passage echo the themes expressed in Hebrews 1 and 2? What new truths are mentioned?

7. How has your views of Jesus Christ changed as a result of these chapters? Explain.

8. Given the excellency and supremacy of Christ, why do you think human beings still tend to trust other things more?

9. In what areas of your life do you need to recognize that Christ is far better than everyone and everything else you might put your faith and trust in?

Conclusion

Through this Bible study, we have gotten a better understanding of Christ. We learn about His glorious nature and the cause for which He suffered and died on earth, that is, the purification of sins and reconciliation with God.

There is no better promise than that in Jesus Christ. Not only has He atoned for our sins, but He continues to help us in our times of testing. Angels may minister to us as God's servants; Jesus ministers to us as His own kith and kin.

May we truly worship Jesus Christ as the One who humbled Himself, died for our sins, and who is now risen and glorified.

"But the dignity of human life is unbreakably linked to the existence of the personal-infinite God. It is because there is a personal-infinite God who has made men and women in His own image that they have a unique dignity of life as human beings. Human life then is filled with dignity, and the state and humanistically oriented law have no right and no authority to take human life arbitrarily in the way it is being taken." ~ Francis Schaeffer

Children's Bible Answers

If you know the Bible - even a little - you'll find this hilarious!

It comes from elementary school. Kids were asked questions about the Old & New Testaments. The following statements about the Bible were written by the children. They have not been retouched or corrected (i.e. incorrect spelling has been left in.)

• In the first book of the bible, Guinessis, God got tired of creating the world, so he took the Sabbath off.

• Samson slayed the Philistines with the axe of the Apostles.

Atheist In The Woods

An atheist was taking a walk through the woods, admiring all that the accident of evolution had created. "What majestic trees! What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals!" he said to himself.

As he walked alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. He turned to look, just in time to see a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him. He ran as fast as he could up the path. He looked over his shoulder & saw the bear closing in on him. He tried to run even faster, so scared that tears were coming to his eyes. He looked over his shoulder again, and the bear was even closer.

His heart was pumping frantically as he tried to run even faster, but he tripped and fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up and saw the bear right on top of him raising his paw to kill him.

At that instant, he cried out, "Oh my God!"

Just then, time stopped... The bear froze; the forest was silent; even the river stopped moving. A bright light shone upon the man, and a voice came out of the sky, saying, "You deny My existence all of these years; teach others I don't exist; even credit My creation to a cosmic accident, and now do you expect Me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer?"

The atheist, ever so proud, looked into the light and said, "It would be rather hypocritical to ask to be a Christian after all these years. But could you make the bear a Christian?"

"Very well," said the voice.

As the light went out, the river ran, the sounds of the forest continued, and the bear put his paw down. The man breathed a sigh of relief. Then the bear brought both paws together, bowed his head and said: "Lord, I thank you for this food, which I am about to receive."

Adam’s Bargain

One day Adam was feeling lonely. So he went looking for God.

"God I'm lonely." Adam said to God.

"Adam, I knew you would feel this way. So I'll make woman for you." God answered.

"Excuse me God, but what's woman?"

"Adam, woman is someone who will take care of you. She will get food for you, bear your children, will love you at all times, not question your judgement, and when you discover clothes, she'll wash and mend them for you, keep your house clean, not argue with you, and give you companionship."

"Sounds good," said Adam. "How much will she cost?"

God thought for a while and said, "Two arms and a leg."

Adam said, "Hmmmm, that's expensive! What can I get for a rib?"

A Naive Pastor

A man who was sick wanted so badly to go to church the next day, so he took a heavy dosage of Benadryl. The next morning he wouldn't wake up!

So his wife went to church without him.

When the Pastor asked her where her husband was she said "he went to Bedtime Baptist Church with Pastor Pillow and Sister Sheets."

The Pastor looked at her with kind of a weird expression and said "I have never heard of that church, what part of town is it at?"

A Little Boy's Prayer

"Dear God, please take care of my daddy and my mommy and my sister and my brother and my doggy and me.

Oh, please take care of yourself, God. If anything happens to you, we're gonna be in a big mess."

A Child's ABC

A grandfather overheard his granddaughter repeating the alphabet in reverent, hushed tones.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"I'm praying, Grandpa," she said. "I can't think of the right words, so I just say all the letters. God will put them together for me, 'cause he knows what I'm thinking."
